Navy travel bag?

[caperberries]

I need a new all-purpose travel bag for flights etc, and thought I'd get the large Le Pliage - I have the shopper already and it's proven quite handy.

Then I spotted this Radley equivalent

any thoughts? I know Radley is unpopular on MN and the dog is naff, but this seems quite good. Or can anyone suggest an alternative?

Anyone?

I have the big le pliage with the zip that increases or reduces its size depending on what you need. It’s the perfect travel bag

North Face base camp duffle in urban navy. Size small (50 litres) can be taken as cabin luggage. Not pretty but big & reliable & not in some lairy Carlos Fandango colours...

It looks fine. How does it compare to the other one size wise? I would buy it.

I'd stick with the Le Pliage. I took the large Neo Tote on holiday last year and it was great, fitted everything in and was lightweight when I used it for sightseeing.

I've just got the smaller travel tote with a cross body strap in the sale at House of Fraser which I'm intending to use for holiday/travel this year. Whilst it only has a small slip inside pocket, I've got some lightweight Kipling pouches for passport, tickets, Kindle and iPod etc. I can't fault it to be honest.

We have a navy rubberised Rains weekend bag which is terrific. No pouches or pockets which some people might hate but I like it. You can throw everything in it. It was about £60 from Asos 3 years ago and it appears to be indestructible.
