When I’m traveling, I see a lot people use some pretty wack ass luggage. You see these bags rolling thru the baggage claim completely exploded, busting at the seams, dented to hell…it amazes me that people don’t put their valuables in something better designed. I guess to most people, a bag is a bag. To me, the difference between a “bag” and a piece EQUIPMENT is in the details. AK just sent me the new line of Headporter x Burton pieces and I must say, God Is In The Details. (In this case, god being hf, haha.)
I really loved the wheels used on older Burton bags. They were basically rollerblade wheels. So I was skeptical on these. But they are also great if not better. Grooved for a better traction grip. Smaller and harder durometer so less likely to topple over. Subtle logo details always helps as well.
Sick full lining inside the bag. Also a nice touch is the luggage ID tag. Much improved over the last “slide out” version.
Got some trips already planned for the winter so I am looking forward to wear testing this baby out.

NRF began last night and it looks like another dope season! Too bad we lost by one point…
But it’s always exciting to get the official NRF uniforms. This season’s edition features a nice little AF25 hit.

Just got my hands on a new Zune, thanks to DB at Microsoft. Form factor is quite nice as is the navigation. I’ll report back if this is really the iPod killer Bill Gates claims it is.
