I love wheeled bags, but my S wouldn’t be caught dead with one. Much more macho to struggle with huge duffle bag + ski bag + backpack. If he’s going somewhere where a daypack won’t fit everything he uses a soft sided bag that turns into a backpack with hidden shoulder straps. On overstuffed flights, you can actually get it under the airplane seat (not possible with rolled bags) and it works much better on 3rd world bus trips when you have to sleep on your bags (but that’s another post). Patagonia makes a high-end one called MLC.
