“Our trips to Europe have become complicated lately. We bring two carry-on sized bags with us from the states. The bags are then used for day trips, or weekend trips, or even longer excursions. This year, one of the bags was the Aeronaut. The carry-on sized bag really earned our respect–and got a workout. After a few weeks of travel, Martha declared it her favorite bag.

“You can always get one more thing in it,” she declared, “and the two side compartments can be used for shoes, underwear, or dirty clothes, keeping them out of the way. There is easy access to everything in the bag.”

So I’m sitting here looking at the bag and wondering how it shed all the grime. We put it down on train platforms, floors, and carried it in the rain. It looks new.”

This Checkpoint Flyer Briefcase might possibly be the perfect laptop bag. It makes the airport security process a bit less painful with a removable, clear pocket for a laptop and a separate compartment for everything else.

“I never thought of myself as a bag hound—until recently, when I knew my new Tom Bihn Checkpoint Flyer (with accessories) was on the way, and the excitement rose in my chest every time I turned the corner to my house for the days leading up to the delivery. But I don’t mind the label; along with my possibly-overactive interest in productivity, I have a special fondness for organization and tools for creating it. Tom Bihn’s impressive selection of such tools makes my mouth water. And the package that landed at the Eubanks house a while back—packed full of Bihn gear—has satisfied my bag-houndedness for now.” Read the full review, complete with pictures.
