I actually work for luggage showroom and after much deliberation, decided on this Piel Leather bag because of it's versatility. I mainly bought it as a weekend bag for short trips but wanted it to be big enough to carry some additional gym clothes etc. This bag is the perfect size. I use it as a gym bag now as well and it fits perfectly in the locker. I travel alot for work, mainly 1 or 2 night stays and this bag has a lot of extra pockets for toiletries, etc. I think the descriptions says it's a "large" duffle bag but it's a little bit smaller than that description. The main compartment is a little longer than an average men's shoe, but is very deep. If I saw the bag in person I would have spent $250 for it. Very high quality construction and leather.
