[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the benefit to have the zipper on top versus the middle? It seems like you can separate the items better if the zippers in the middle with two separate compartments and also less prone to wrinkle. Thoughts?[/quote]

In my experience, foldable luggage racks & other spaces in hotels that are made for luggage don’t easily accommodate clamshell (zipper in the middle) luggage after they’re folded out. It’s awkward to open them while you’re traveling to get something. It also seems to me that they don’t hold as much. I think it’s because one side usually has a cloth cover that zips and that makes it harder to compress clothes & inevitably leaves some space in the middle.

After watching reviews on line, I ordered a Brics X 21” soft side with a top zipper and I love it. It’s very light and rolls great.

One thing a travel blogger pointed out is that soft luggage gives you a little bit of margin when you’re faced with an airline luggage sizer vs. a hard shell case. [/quote]
