Salomon
The smallest bag we tested with separate boot compartments, Salomon’s Racing Week-End Bag ($75; $90 with wheels) is great for the light-packer. The top of the duffel/shoulder bag opens for easy loading, and a front zipper pocket is ideal for keys and sunglasses. Also, two side handles make it easy to lift the bag into high places. If you want wheels, try the Racing Wheel Bag. Downfall: The bag’s shoulder strap is not detachable. Call Salomon, (800) 225-6850.
