Hi, looking for some feedback from people with experience of these bags.
Currently I have a Redoxx Air Boss and it is a great bag for extended travel. (Apologies TM, I only came across your stuff recently!)
My work sees me travelling around Africa (so I need something pretty robust), but I am normally in a suit, so can usually get away with changes of shirts/underwear. I always travel with a laptop and usually a few notebooks/ipads/kindle/etc. I can manage with the Air Boss for up to 2 weeks and haven't yet had any problems with taking it as hand luggage.
Although I have used it half full a number of times, it doesn't really excel like that, so I have also taken to using an old-style type briefcase that fits my laptop with a change of shirt/underwear or two if I am going for a shorter/overnight trip. Old-style briefcase is getting just plain old however and I don't think it will survive African airports for much longer.
So, to the actual question!
I looked at the Redoxx CPA bag, but prefer the style of the Tristar/WF (now that I know about them). The Tristar looks great, but it might be more bag than I really need and I don't want to replicate the Air Boss, however some of the reviews of the WF seemed to imply it wouldn't be the best suited if you need a laptop.
So that is what I'd like to hear any views on:
- How the WF holds up with a laptop and accessories and limited clothes (for 1-3 days travel)
- Whether the Tristar would end up replicating the Air Boss or can I justify using the Tristar for shorter travel
Apologies if this is covered on another thread and for being long-winded!
