While it's true that Ferragamo generally designs beautiful shoes, their drawback is that most are only made in narrow widths. If you aren't lucky enough to have a narrow foot, go with another company.

I got the Grand Traveler in the new print, island bloom. I love it! I am going on a weekend trip and am by no means a light packer. This will be perfect to fit a couple changes of clothes, jammies, swimsuit, and I won't even need an additional bag for my toiletries (like usual). Can't wait to use it! Awesome! I think I will go pack now! Zappos can't be beat, it was on my doorstep in less than 2 hours!

The Grand Traveler is almost perfect except that it's enormous (think Volkswagen)! It's about 3" too wide. I see no way that the airlines would allow me to carry this in addition to my wheeled 21" rollaboard. Maybe occasionally I could get away with it, but I wouldn't want to count on it. I wanted a bag big enough to hold my laptop and essentials that had a trolley sleeve (slides over suitcase handle). Well, this is way too large; the Metropolitan is too small for my needs; and there doesn't appear to be anything in the middle except the Weekender which doesn't have the trolley feature. Right size trumps trolley sleeve so I guess I'll be ordering a Weekender. Again, this is a great design but so huge, that loaded up, I probably wouldn't be able to lift it.

I was pleased to find just what I was looking for, and it was delivered very promptly. I would definitely use Zappos again.

What a beautiful pattern on this Grand Traveler. Very well made. I took it to the hospital with me and before they asked how I was they commented on my beautiful bag.

I was looking for a carry on that was big enough for a 3-4 day trip but not a rollerboard so that I wouldn't have issues with space. This bag is even a bit bigger than I would need for that. The things I like about this bag are: great size, well constructed, option of handles vs. shoulder strap, fabulous construction and placement of the pockets. It is not clear from the pictures but there is are 2 pockets on the one external side of the bag (1 about 1/3 bag width and the other 2/3 bag width) with a flap that has internal magnets to snap shut over them. They are the perfect size for your netbook and bag of liquids for fast TSA screening. One more pocket on the other external side and the pass-through for your suitcase. 4 pockets on inside. As always, I love the option with VB bags that you can wash them. The minor drawbacks to the bag are that it is a shade bigger than I wanted, it is heavier than you'd expect (though still light), and I find the handles a bit too small to get up onto my shoulder comfortably. If the bag is fully packed, the shoulder strap can really bite into the shoulder, so the handles are the way to go. Still overall, this totally suits my needs!
