Travel gear: A Briggs & Riley bag that holds luggage and a laptop

It’s hard to maintain your dignity in an airport security line when you suddenly realize both your socks have holes in them. While nothing will eradicate the awkwardness of TSA checks, one luggage manufacturer has a solution for making your trip through security simpler.

Briggs & Riley’s 20-inch Baseline Carry-on Computer Upright eliminates the need to carry separate luggage and laptop cases.

The bag, which comes in black and olive, has a built-in, well-protected pocket in the lid that opens quickly and easily to store a laptop. Inside the main compartment there’s enough packing space for clothing for a two- to three-day trip. An exterior pocket is perfect for storing travel documents.

We tested this bag and found it simplified airport security checks; in addition, it’s sturdy and well organized. Price: $325; available at many luggage retailers, or click here.
