OGIOLayover Travel Bag

5/5 for the price, 3.7/5 compared to professional bag
(Tldr: Great for price, smaller capacity due to design/ruggedness trade-off, design flaw that will lead to failure with regular use.)I have had this bag for a year as I try to transition to carryon only travel. I travel about once a month with this bag around the workd. It seems to be a nice middle ground between consumer grade and professional grade carry-on bags. He shows middling signs of wear and would probably be good for another year before eventual zipper failure.Pros:-Rugged main wheels-Expandable, which makes it a decent checked bag if you are trying to be versitile.-Decent organization.- Stands up well- Double rod on the handle allows for stable attachment of backpack.Cons:- less space compared to a purely rectangular suitcase inside due to a rounded cover.- The choice to reinforce the wheels and add bumps to this reinforcement (to allow it to lay flat )mean you are giving up about an inch of potential verticle storage. On a bag this small you feel the loss. (Pictured)- Design flaw. The handle on the bottom of the bag is meant to double as a stand. Due to the design of the bag, this handle ends up bending slightly, which allows the lower zippers to rub against the floor, (pictured) every time the bag is stood up. (The bag still stands up despite this. This will eventually lead to a lower zipper failure. At one year in, i have modified the bag with a abs plastic skid plate in an effort to delay this failure. (Pictured) I’ll check in next year with a progress report.Overall: I think it is a killer bag at the $200 price point. You will have to go up in price if you want a bag that actually has a reinforced lower. I also don’t know if the reinforced wheels are a good or a bad thing, since mine haven’t failed, but I do notice the lack of space. If you were trying to spend less than $300 on a carry-on bag, I think this is the perfect one. If you have closer to a $400 budget, I would go with something more like luggageworks.

Awesome overnight/short trim bag A++++
This brand is the best luggage I have ever used. My last one lasted almost 8 years of regular traveling. This bag offers plenty of room for shoes , under garments and clothes for a 2-3 day trip along with easy to roll bag. I love OGIO for their quality and durability. Highly recommend this bag. Installs easy in overhead bins on airplanes and easy to roll through the terminal. A+++++++

Perfect weekend bag
I purchased for my son and he loves it! He has a family but this was perfect for him. It’s functional with all pockets and side zipper areas. I ordered black, looks more expensive than it was.

Great Bag but started to fall apart
This was one of my first carryons as a professional traveler. With that it got some abuse with over 60 flights per year. I found that the zipper at the bottom started to rip out on the expansion section. So now my bag is stuck in the largest setting. Other than that it has been great. I replaced it as my every trip bag a few years ago. It lasted about 4 years before I had to as with it expanded many of the international carriers would question the size and make me check it.

My favorite 22" carry on bag!
This is my second one of these Ogio Layover bags. I only replaced my first one after 7 years because my previous company branded it and I felt bad rolling through an airport representing another company's brand.Its a big bag, it rolls really well (its a 2 wheeler), it supports my often overloaded Tumi breif on top of the Ogio back without tipping over. It fits really well (when not expanded) into all the newer model overheads in airplanes. Some older Southwest/Delta/AA planes you have to make sure you put it in wheels first to fit. Also if you're 100% loaded up inside without expanding, you cannot put items in the front exterior pockets or it won't slide in the overhead. The bag has tons of space inside, two compacting straps, and two large lid compartments I usually fill with socks, underwear, and undershirts. I can easily pack for a week long business trip and carry on with this. A better packer than me could probably get even more days out of this bag.I normally buy Tumi carry on bags, but this is actually my favority bag over my comparable 22" Tumi Alpha carry-on. And I travel enough every year to get A-List on Southwest, and previously Gold or Plat on Delta.

Got these for my sons, who love them. I may actually have to buy one for myself.

Another Great Bag from Ogio
I’ve had an Ogio backpack for the last 4 years. I travel 35 weeks a year and that backpack is still holding up well. I needed a good carry on roller bag to compliment my Ogio backpack. I bought the Ogio and all I can say is that it has impeccable build quality and looks great! I can fit enough clothes and stuff in it for a 5 day trip. Good bag, good buy, don’t cheap out, just get the Pgio.
