New Travel Luggage Ideas for Hunting & General Travel

[Longtine88]

My wife wants to get new travel luggage. And I really don't want to get myself another hardshell turtle case that 300 million people have. What are my fellow rough backpacking hunters using with just general travel and hunting travels. I need like brand, model, etc. I just don't want another freaking turtle case. Tired of them and need a more manly looking travel bag lol. I like the look of the ORV-2 Trunk 36

I'm on the road 200+ days a year. Yes it's a hard case but I use all zero Halliburton luggage now and don't regret it a bit. I rarely if ever see anyone else with one in the airport and always get compliments when I'm in the boarding area or checking into a hotel.

I do see more people carrying the patagonia black hole bags. I got one about two years ago to bring stuff home when I bought something bigger for my wife or daughter and it's been bombproof. Tsa hasn't killed it and it doesn't take up a lot of room when not in use.

Good luck on your search, luggage can be a rabbit hole.

Grand Teton Rolling Suitcase | Luggage

A travel carry system to hold all of the necessary gear. The Grand Tetons may well be the most rugged, iconic, and beautiful peaks in the world. So it only seemed right to identify our new innovative luggage series with this majestic range of mountains. Our quest was to design the most...

Nice bag and easy to live out of.

Action packers work pretty well. You can load several in a truck or put on airlines. I get some funny looks in the airport but haul my loaded Kifaru pack on airlines and put in overhead storage on the plane. Saves a bit of luggage $.

Although retired, I was a frequent airline traveler (~1.3M miles) and the qualities I wanted in luggage were:
1-security of locks, not easily defeated
2-rollability since I was always on flight in next concourse!
3-internal means to separate clothing and secure so doesn't look like clothing was wrung out wet and packed.
4-easily identifiable on luggage carrousels.
5-anything except black since everyone used black luggage.
6-sized for 2-4 day trips.
7-water resistance since likely left out on cart in weather.
8-unique storage for GPS trackers.
9-strength, durability and weight all part of total.
10-handle long enough for easy pull or push.

Glad I no longer fly!
