SIMPLE AS THAT the phrase we use to describe our lifetime performance guarantee.
But it also embodies the energy and philosophy that we try to bring to every
aspect of our business.
We know it’s much more than luggage.
“It’s my home on the road.” “It’s my travel partner.” “It’s my mobile support
system.” Those are some of the ways our customers describe their Briggs& Riley
luggage. And why we’re passionately focused on providing products that are
exceptionally well designed and reliable
We
understand that different travelers have different needs.
That’s why we offer a Briggs & Riley collection for every lifestyle.Baseline

We listen and then we innovate.
Travelers want lighter, stronger bags. We responded with an ingenious new
approach to frame configuration and material selection that reduces weight while
increasing durability. They want wrinkle-free packing. We responded with our
exclusive Outsider® handle. They want quicker trips through Security. We created
SpeedThru™, an easily accessible pocket that keeps personal items safely inside
the bag.
We build more intelligent bags.
“Is there a smarter way to design this, one that will make life easier for our
users?” That simple question drives our
product development process down to the tiniest detail. The result? Bags our
users constantly tell us are “more intelligent,” in big ways and in countless
little ways.
We offer the strongest guarantee in the industry. Simple as that®.
The guarantees that other brands offer have limits. Ours doesn’t. Our lifetime
performance guarantee covers ordinary wear and tear, airline damage and is good
on every bag we make.
We’re committed to our retailers.
You’ll find us exclusively in specialty luggage stores, where customers are more
discriminating and salespeople more knowledgeable. And you’ll notice that we
don’t make pens, wallets, watches, key chains, belts,umbrellas, or outerwear.
We’re focused on doing one thing well.
We’re
proud that our customers are our advocates.

Packing Tips
Tip #1: Although some airlines still allow you to check two bags per person plus
allow you a carry-on many airlines are now charging to check your bags. Check
with your airline for their regulations regarding the number and size of the
bags you are required to carry. With this information you will be able to plan
your wardrobe carefully.
Tip
#2: Make a list of all the activities and events you plan to do and then make a
list of the clothing you need to wear for those activities. Now go over the list
and eliminate anything you really don't need.
Tip #3: The best way to plan your wardrobe is to mix and match basics, planning
the wardrobe around one or two basic colors. For dress, men can pack two suits
for an extended trip matching them up with different shirts and ties. A charcoal
gray or tan suit will mix and match with just about any color. Women can mix and
match the same way with black, gray, or tan jackets, skirts and pants. In either
case, a change of tie or scarf with a different colored shirt will make another
outfit.
Tip #4: Casual clothing depends upon where you are going. Do not assume that
jeans are appropriate casual wear. In many countries, jeans are frowned upon.
Khaki pants, however are usually acceptable. Additionally, jeans are heavier and
bulkier than khakis. In many parts of the world, shorts are considered
inappropriate as are any clothing that has a military look. It is better to err
on the side of conservatism. When it comes to casual clothing, layering is a
much better scheme than packing bulky, heavy clothing. Layering your clothes
also gives you more opportunity to mix and match outfits. A turtleneck under a
sports jacket will give a much different look than wearing it under a sweater.
Always bring a bathing suit. You never know when a hotel will have a pool. For
men, a conservative bathing suit can also do double-duty as a pair of shorts.
For women, a bikini can do double duty as underwear. One warning, though,
two-piece bathing suits may not be acceptable in all countries.
Tip #5: Knits and textured fabrics travel better than natural fabrics that have
a tendency to wrinkle. Synthetics
don'twrinkle as much but can be very uncomfortable in hot humid climates. A
blend of natural and synthetics can be a good compromise. However, undergarments
should be made of natural fabrics because they breathe easier. Also, you can
bring fewer undergarments and wash them out at night. If you do opt for washing
out your socks and underwear be aware that cotton takes a long time to dry. Try
silk undergarments. Not only do they dry quickly, they breathe well and feel
good against the skin.
Tip #6: Consider not bringing much clothing at all. Buying clothing at your
destination can often be less expensive than buying it at home... unless you are
staying in a resort area.
How to Pack
Tip #1: Pack your clothing tightly without over-stuffing your suitcase. Tight
packing means no loss of space andfewer wrinkles. There are three basic ways to
pack efficiently:
The Rolling Method: Roll clothing, especially garments like turtlenecks, pajamas
sweaters,slacks, etc. By wrapping a rubber band around each item, they stay
rolled up.
The Interweave Method: This works best with longer items such as dresses, pants,
etc. Start with the longest items first, placing them in the bottom of
thesuitcase, with the ends hanging over the case. Then place smaller itemson top
of the longer ones. Finally, when the suitcase is filled, fold the hangover on
top. This will prevent sharp creases on your long garments.
The
Bundling Method: Like the interweave method; bundling is accomplished by folding
longer items around smaller items. However, bundling is done by outfit. In other
words, if you plan to wear a particular shirt with a particular pair of pants,
you bundle them together. Starting with socks and underwear, you then wrap the
shirt and finally the pants. The advantage of this method is that each outfit is
together and easily accessible. If you then put the complete bundle in a
zip-lock bag and expel all ofthe air out of it, you have a fairly wrinkle free
outfit at your fingertips. With longer garments, however, a garment bag or a
suitcase with a suitor is best of all to prevent wrinkles.
Tip #2: Make use of dead space. Stuff underwear, socks, ties, scarves etc. into
shoes. This not only saves space, but also keeps your shoes from being crushed.
Tip #3: Layering clothing with plastic dry cleaning bags or tissue paper helps
to prevent wrinkles.
Tip #4: Don't bring full sized toiletries. Many drug stores carry sample size
toothpaste, hair spray, shaving cream, etc. These take up a lot less space and
are much lighter than their full-sized counterparts. Also available at drug
stores are small plastic bottles and jars that can be inexpensively and
ecologically refilled with your preferred toiletries.
Tip #5: Traveling with a friend or your family? Consider 'cross packing'. Pack
essential items of each person in each other¹s bags. That way, if a suitcase is
lost, everyone will still be able to enjoy their trip until the bag is found.
Tip #6: Place jewelry,medicines, contact lenses, and other valuable or
irreplaceable items in your carry-on. Also consider packing a change of socks
and underwear in your carry-on (see Tip #5).
Tip #7: Unpack as soon as you arrive at your destination. Doing so will keep
your clothes as wrinkle free as possible.
