I am looking to buy a weekender or a medium size duffel for short trips.

Did a quick search here but most recommendations are way out of my budget. I am looking for something less than $200. If it's on sale for around $100 that'd be even better.

I kind of like this Banana Republic one, but not sure if there are better options out there.

Thanks in advance!

slightly over your budget, but well worth it, filson duffle. They have a small or medium duffle.

small duffle: http://www.cranes-country-store.com/store/product.php?productid=16287&page=1
$225, but there might be a 10% code or something. I think the small duffle will be large enough for weekends. I have the medium and it is huge, can fit at least a week in it and get plenty of complements on it.

edit: seems cranes no longer has a filson discount as filson put a lock down on retailer discounts.

Depends on how you will be wearing, but badbags are also a good choice at that price range. Made in usa

I'm using a Beckel war bag - it cost me around $100 shipped with added interior pocket.
