Luggage Designs
So those who collect data on my interests know very well that I have a thing for luggage and travel solutions. No surprise I get lots of ads for travel bags and accessories. I like to travel. No secret there. I was watching one such advertisement, because there are lots of people who think they have the perfect bag solution, and there are a ton of good ideas out there. I have one recurring thought though when I see these bag advertisements. They all try to purport that they're the perfect solution because they have more pockets than the other guy... So, here's the rub about carry-on bag design. The fact of the matter is you have to fit the whole bag in a 9x14x22 inch space. The more pockets you have, the more space within that 9x14x22 space is taken up by supporting material. This means the more pockets you have, the less total space you have. Now. Are pockets, padding, and separators bad? No. But... be careful in your design. More is less, and less ... is more. Ju
