How to choose your luggage so that it doesn't become baggage!

It pays to buy quality luggage, not necessarily a high profile designer brand (they’re the bags that get stolen first), but you want it to hold up to the rigors of travel.

SOFT VS. HARD LUGGAGE:

Basically soft sided luggage is more flexible and you can stuff more stuff in them, while the hard side bags are safer for transporting anything breakable.

WHEELS, WHEELS, WHEELS!

Even balancing two small bags on both shoulders can be tiring if you have to walk any distance at all, plus shoulder straps can be tough on your jacket. A bag that has wheels AND converts to a backpack is the most versatile.

NO CHECKED LUGGAGE!!

If you can pack everything into two carry-on size bags, you'll be way ahead of the crowd in more ways than one.

Carry On Caveat:

The FAA and the airlines have new and changing restrictions on carry-ons, and may limit passengers to one plus a briefcase. Watch your local papers, call your airline or your travel agent.

Currently the carry on bags have these maximum dimensions:

Here is a recent testimonial about THE ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MEN'S CLOTHES:

"I received The Encyclopedia of Men's Clothes this afternoon, Andy, and it's terrifically useful! Thank you for explaining how to access the various disk components--your instructions helped me to quickly navigate the book.

I particularly like your logical, straightforward approach to each section. I mean to say, it really makes sense to explain why something matters, then how to care for it once you've chosen to incorporate the thing into your life, and then to include a history of the item, which focuses the reader's attention on its intrinsic value to a gentleman's kit.

Your book is more useful than Esquire's Encyclopedia of 20th-Century Men's Fashions, because the latter serves as a chronicle not a guide. The Encyclopedia of Men's Clothes provides a road map for fellows who wish to understand the choices they make, and who wish to make choices they understand. I am simply delighted with your book!" -- J.de M. NM
