Micro Luggage: Travel Snob
With all of the traveling I’ll be doing this summer, nothing would be better for my feet, busy schedule, and general sanity than a scooter suitcase.

Men’s Bags of Fall 2013: Part 1
The only reason I want to hear about cold weather nowadays is because of the related gear (read: bags) and threads. Otherwise, I really don’t about the chilly days and nights of winter, as layers are only so much fun for a Florida guy.
