When You Carry This Duffle Bag, You’ll Finally Be That Cool Guy on the Plane
You know who we’re talking about. You’ve seen him dozens, if not hundreds of times. Virtually every time you fly. He’s the Cool Guy on the Plane, that dude who strolls down the aisle with the confidence of a big league slugger approaching the plate, attracts the eyes of everyone on board, calls all the flight attendants by their first names, helps an elderly passenger store away her suitcase without any prompting, gets extra desserts at mealtime. How is he so damn awesome? you wonder, fuming with jealousy. What does he have that I don’t?
The answer, of course, is the right bag. Homeboy is almost certainly carrying a ruggedly handsome duffle bag — the true mark of any veteran, respectable traveler.
Thankfully for you, NYC-based accessories guru Ernest Alexander now makes the absolute perfect iteration. Fashioned from water-resistant waxed cotton twill — which’ll just get more beautiful the more you beat it up — with Italian leather handles and solid brass hardware, it’s spacious enough for a week away and hardy enough to last a lifetime.
All you have to do now is prepare for your new life of irresistible cool whenever you take to the skies.
