Drop the knapsacks, athletic duffel bags or unnecessary bulk of a luggage carry on and stay the night with a real bag. That’s right real men carry real bags. Reach for a sturdy weekender to carry and protect your goods.

Weekenders typically provide a clean sleek pro-league look and are completely functional too (some of them expand!). If you aren’t in the market for something Gucci, I recommend the Fred Perry Weekender. Its black faux-leather exterior keeps things classy and it is expandable, with a removable and adjustable strap which really helps to make packing and carrying relatively easy. Plus it features four metal feet on the bottom so you can feel free to toss it around. It comes in plenty handy for overnighters.
