1. J. Panther Luggage Co. The Ruc Tote “This is a personal favorite of mine for traveling overseas. It’s a unisex bag that is rugged enough to hold all your carry-on items such as files, laptop, iPad, cords, a few magazines and some toiletries. The added bonus is that you can carry it three ways — a great way to avoid body pain from overpacking.” $590
