Stuff You'll Love: Great Gadgets

Not Your Average Backpack

As a traveler, I have a basic rule for all luggage: no wheels, no way. I love my rolling backpacks, which combine multi-pocketed functionality with the ability to carry them on my back (in a pinch) or pull them along on their own wheels. One of those is usually all I carry. And while there are many variations, you'll love this version, which offers side access to a padded notebook compartment and a monopole handle that locks into place so you can pull and push.
