Bag Recommendation for Work Travel
I'm looking for bag/suitcase recommendations for work trips, specifically bags/suitcases that fit multiple suits. I'm a fairly big guy, so I want to make sure the bag/suitcase is wide/long enough to fit my suits.
Until recently, I've been going on 1 - 2 day work trips and I've been able to get away with packing one suit and a separate small weekend bag. I need something bigger now that I can fit at least two suits into. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some recommendations for bags and suitcases suitable for work travel, especially for carrying multiple suits:
Weekender Duffel Bags:
Nylon Tumi Bags:
Leather Laptop/Messenger Bags:
Avoid Certain Types:
For a big guy, ensure the bag is wide and long enough to accommodate your suits without wrinkling them. Look for bags with compartments specifically designed for suits to keep them in good condition during travel.
If you need more specific brand recommendations or links, you might want to check out the detailed discussions and user experiences on Wall Street Oasis forums.

As an update, my finalists were the Briggs & Riley Garment Duffle Bag ($369) and the Halfday Premium Garment Duffle Bag ($158).
I ended up splurging on the B&R bag as it has a lifetime warranty and is within standard carry-on size (the Halfday is a little bigger). Hoping that I’ll get a lot of use out of it as work travel begins ramping up and I enter the wedding heavy portion of my life.
