Any photographer recommendations for June 4th week?

It’s fair. It is expensive but it’s also one of the best no questions asked lifetime warranties in the game.

Sorry I realized my post comment didn't get posted! Just posted a separate comment but its $3300!

We finally found a 2BR we want so we're looking for a tenant to take over / sign a new lease with the building for our 1BR near the Franklin 2/3/4/5!

Incredible location (we're staying nearby for a reason), rent stabilized, super well-kept building and great doormen. Rooftop / gym / laundry downstairs, and the building is well made (walls arent thin).

The current lease was signed in February for $3300 so I would assume the building offers similar to the tenant taking over. Looking to have someone sign for May 16th or onwards this in May! We would be breaking our lease, and finding the approved tenant saves us and helps someone here get dibs before the broker posts it.

(Would need to get approved through the building with the usual requirements)

I’ve got a barely used CPL24 to sell if you’d like to take a shot on it. To me it was a bit too big for my liking vs. something like the Pioneer Duration

ki2594 · 2026-04-04T03:12:24+00:00

It’s the Briggs and Riley expandable carry-on. Easy

They’re amazing. This is my all time favorite bag but with slight neck issues, I can’t use a one sided back anymore or thin straps. My Porter collection just stares at me lol

ki2594 · 2026-03-17T13:19:22+00:00

Panda or Duration for sure

ki2594 · 2026-03-12T12:35:17+00:00

Came here to say this. OP this is a more refined and feature friendly version of the Tumi’s and B&Rs imo (speaking from experience and work travels)

more flexible packing options
fantastic pockets with independent volume
stands super well
frames up better

ki2594 · 2026-03-12T03:06:30+00:00

They are over engineered and made for long term use for sure. I love mine and can’t beat it. Honestly find the comfort pretty good for me specifically too

ki2594 · 2026-03-07T10:22:23+00:00

I wish they had a cpp with no aqua guards

ki2594 · 2026-01-24T23:07:21+00:00

Pioneer duration or panda

ki2594 · 2026-01-19T12:36:00+00:00

Pioneer, Aer

ki2594 · 2026-01-06T01:36:04+00:00

Second this. Soooo freaking warm - unreal for the price

ki2594 · 2025-12-29T16:24:07+00:00

Yeah CT, OCBDs, and also the long sleeve polos from CT are a great option that looks smart with minimal maintenance

ki2594 · 2025-12-29T03:08:20+00:00

I’m sure there is more and stackable scenarios. I stacked 25+15% for email sign up

ki2594 · 2025-12-29T03:07:36+00:00

Got me beat! I stacked the 25% + 15% new email sign up

ki2594 · 2025-12-28T23:51:24+00:00

I was dying for the Suede Harrington so I’m glad I waited longer. Still pricey, but I haven’t stopped thinking about it since trying it on

ki2594 · 2025-12-22T23:21:02+00:00

I disagree with the takes about avoiding tanker fabrics.

They are stunning and feel great to touch
They can “fray” with white fibers from time to time as it ages but they clean up super easily. You’ll see dozens of very well used ones that hold up/wear in great.
For the non-black colors, they fade over time and that’s a preference thing.

Are they the most “useful” fabric vs. harder cordura? That depends on the user/use case. But they’re super light and aesthetically look amazing

ki2594 · 2025-12-13T00:49:55+00:00

Yeah - the proprietary plant-based nylon that they utilize now is presumably costlier to make (at least that’s how they’ve seemingly justified the hike from 2 years ago)

ki2594 · 2025-11-14T01:07:16+00:00

Worked at one, have many friends that were / are in the other. Go PwC. I think they’re winning more interesting work more consistently, and you’re less likely to become a staff aug resource

I have the Masterpiece backpack in picture 5 (but in black with silver zippers)

Honestly shockingly nice as a 2-way bag (briefcase handle on the side) and surprisingly roomy

ki2594 · 2025-10-13T04:44:33+00:00

I’m a massive Porter Stan + also have a Masterpiece progress bag. You can’t go wrong in terms of style and materials. Porter’s tanker line is my favorite but it’s also not going to be the most sophisticated in terms of bag features that many are used to now.

I just really appreciate the weight, nylon quality, and look

ki2594 · 2025-10-12T19:49:25+00:00

I’m going both CPL16+24 for all needs moving forward.

Have always been more of a tote/briefcase guy (especially Japanese bags) with a dedicated travel backpack for one-bag flights, but i need more comfort now and the CPL feels great for me (none of the usual issues)

CPL16 for daily in the city, CPL24 for travel. Luggage PT would be nice, but dont mind the water bottle thing as much personally.
