Traveling this winter? Whether you are heading out for the holidays or for winter activities, Eagle Creek's ORV is a great pick. Winter travel is bulkier, you have sweaters, coats, boots and generally more stuff. This bag can hold it all, and some gear too.
The ORV is part of the Eagle Creek e-series luggage which uses recycled and post consumer materials. It comes in three sizes, up to a 30 inch tall bag, which is very large. That means it can hold long gear like snow shows, trekking poles, and the like. There is a compartment which is separate from the main compartment, so you can put dirty clothes or damp gear in there and still keep the rest of your stuff clean.
The mesh divider in the middle is collapsable if you need the space for large gear, and I like the organizational bonus of the divider. You can put heavier stuff on the bottom and lighter items in the top section. Eagle Creek's packing cubes would come in handy for smaller things like socks and underwear.
Two zippered pockets on the front make for quick access to things like tickets, maps, and anything you need to have handy. The wheels are big and great for more rough terrain like unpaved road and snowy walkways, and the pull handle is comfortable and pops up and back down easily. There are grab handles all over this bag, making it easy to load and unload in a variety of positions. Zipper pulls are big chunky loops, the zippers glide smoothly, and external zippers are lockable.
This bag comes in different colors and sizes to meet your needs, I think it would be awesome to have a set, or color code for family members. If you need adventure luggage, be sure to check out the ORV Trunk collection. Find it HERE.
