While not a top carry handle, the PU does have pull out short handles which can be used to grab the bag when the top is unzipped. That made a great improvement on the 2nd generation PU. Also, the PU...

Fold and roll. I roll a lot of my clothes. If they are especially prone to wrinkling, add some tissue paper. You might also search packing on YouTube. And then, the old tip of hanging in the bathroom...

So jealous. I love Acadia. Have been there a few times in my younger years. My nephew was there this summer. I remember picking blueberries on Cadillac Mountain in the early 70s. (I was 2, lol!!!...

Do you use a travel water bottle? If so, many come with a cap /handle-on-the-lid. If you bought one of these (contigo makes great ones and can be found on Amazon), connect a small carbiner to it and...

I just bought a cape cod. A closet under the eaves holds my TB stuff, my other purses/wallets (there are many!), and luggage. My TB collection doesn't have luggage bags other than a SA because i...

Yes it will. In my photo, an empty CS narrow Deluxe (the cover has been painted) AND a B6 are in each pocket.

Although it's bigger, you could try the PU in halcyon. It's organized and the halcyon lets it conform to your body. It just looks like a big hobo bag.

I also go minimal. I use the same case as @capncat but a different pattern (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HAZTHBU/ref=twister_B07BSVLHYD?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1). I throw it everywhere. I don't baby my...

This might not work for you but Taroko Shop on Etsy is a very good shop and items arrive very quickly. It's the closest I've seen to what you are looking for. I personally don't use a paper calendar,...

It's really too bad that the SK doesn't work for you. While purples are my overall favorite color, my olive (ballistic) SK goes with every color I could possibly wear. Have you considered the Swift...

I carry 2 stainless steel travel mugs in a #3 SS every. One mug (16 Oz) is for coffee and the other (29 Oz) is for water. On the rare occasion I don't seal the lids appropriately, they leak. And, the...

I'm really interested in a visual. I've never had this happen to me so it's hard to imagine. Maybe your strap is defective?

I think either the pilot or PU would work. I carry lots of writing /art supplies. I'd personally prefer the PU because I think it would "carry better" on one's shoulder. However, if you do any...

The DLBP is the kind of bag you can forget you're wearing! And it doesn't look clunky or like you're ready for a hike, which in my opinion makes it a better backpack for most work situations. And,...

See what you think when your DLBP comes. I think it's a great EDC bag. If it's ok for your work EDC to be a backpack, it's "dressier". It has organization. You might consider getting FS for the...

The S19 FS in the front pocket. But I use one of the cafe FS's instead. It gives some structure and organization.

I could fit 1000s in there! Kindle/nook make it so easy!

I love the DLBP. there are lots of tips around about ways to use one. If you are getting lots of groceries, it wouldn't hold many because it's narrow. However, it can easily carry shop bags w/o...

My guess is it has to do with the zippers. Have to add material to put in a zipper.

are you carrying a backpack already? if not, a DLBP, especially in Halcyon, would be great. if you need more organization, the S19 FS works in the front packet, as do the various cafe bag FSs, which...

I often have to push my mom in a wheelchair or in the type of walker you describe (never in an airport tho). she can sometimes hold on to something on her lap. would that be possible? would he be...

just want to say that red blend is not bright. I don't think a man would feel odd with it because it is not at all "flashy". it's pretty but in a gender neutral way of that makes sense.

as for...

if it's tiny you want, I just keep little ones from Amazon on my keys. they are strong for emergencies.
