Hi there, I am traveling to Japan in October and was considering the Medium Duffel. My parents say my back will get tired of carrying it and I should bring a bag with wheels. WHat are your thoughts having traveled with one?

Hey Allison, sounds like the fellas have it covered above..but my two cents is the same..I use this duffel a lot for quick trips, carry-on stuff, and medium weight loads. I am ok with the weight on my back but it totally depends on your strength and comfort levels, and how far you are going. I like the flexibility of a non-rigid/non-wheel bag but it's case by case. Hope that helps and have fun in Japan!
