Gear Review
20,000 miles of travel

Ranked #15 - Rolling Gear Bags
February 11, 2009
My last review was posted on July 16, 2008. Not surprisingly, after no less than 20,000 miles of travels, and living out of this piece of luggage for the past 7 months, the rivets that hold the collapsable handle (on the smaller of the 2 models) are busting loose. At least 50 'baggage smashers' at the airport through that many flights finally have got the best of it. Fortunately, backcountry has a lifetime warantee, no questions asked warantee, so i'll be getting a replacement right away. This bag SHOULD last a lifetime, but from the deserts of California to the North Slope of Alaska, i have thoroughly tested its worth. Other than the rivets, the bag is still remarkably bulletproof and nearly water/snow/sand/mud-tight.
