With only four days of work standing between us and Memorial Day weekend, we’re daydreaming at our desks of hopping a plane, train or automobile to our first holiday excursion of summer. Whether you’re traveling to the beach, country or hitting the pavement in another city, one thing is for certain: toting along more than one bag is just plain foolish.

With so many great weekenders out there, it’s easy to snag one that suits both your style and space needs for three days of chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool. Not sure where to find your perfect match? Check out four of our favorites below and make it a one bag Memorial Day weekend.

Industry Portage Grey Canvas Weekender
This bag is as smart as it is sleek. Black suede-wrapped handles and trim and a water-resistant nylon bottom stylishly contrast with durable grey canvas. A cobalt blue interior housing two zipper pockets keeps your belongings neat and at the ready. $175, The Cools

Sandqvist Carl Gustav Weekender
There’s nothing more ruggedly handsome than camel canvas, wouldn’t you agree? This durable cotton weekender features vegetable-dyed handles and detailing, including a removable, adjustable shoulder strap for hands-free carrying. $188, Roztayger

Krane Haley Large Duffle
If luxury is the look you want to channel, Krane’s olive suede Haley Duffle is your ticket to ride. Sufficient to hold a week’s worth but small enough to carry on, dark leather straps and gunmetal hardware are equal parts manly and chic. $1,035, The Cools

Coach Transatlantic Travel Carryon
Leave it to Coach to keep things classic with this timeless piece. Premium glove-tanned leather improves with age, giving your bag a cooler, lived-in feel with each destination. Double handles and a detachable, adjustable strap let you carry it your way. Don’t forget to make it unique and monogram the hangtag. $698, Coach

Until then, we can make good use of the time by picking up some of the winter shirts for men.

We can use them for a little bit of motivation. Some excitement to get us through to Opening Day of the baseball season. That's why we looked at some of our favorite brands and put together some of our favorite sweaters, button-ups, and polos for the cold weather. Here's to a couple more months until the sunshine.
