Review on ๐ŸŒบ Dakine Split Roller (110L) - Hibiscus Trop Lead by Matthew Riley

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good roller bag but I think there is a design flaw

Excellent bag and well finished. Good pockets and the fabric is very dense. I travel a lot for pleasure and work. Most happens by plane. The only thing that makes me wonder if the bag will hold up is that the lifting straps on the bag's leg (think airport workers and how to put them in the car) attach to the top zipper of the bag. Pocket. When the bag is lifted to be thrown onto the conveyor, the bag is lifted by the zippers. I'm just wondering how long the zippers will hold up to the rigors of a '60s bag that keeps getting taller. And yes, it sounds a bit silly, but when I had an Ogio bag with their "lifetime guarantee," the zipper fabric tore. Ogio refused to honor its warranty because it was "not a critical component" of the bag. That's why I don't buy Ogio bags anymore.
