I'm looking for a new bag for going on trips because my old one is starting to fall apart and is too small. Anyone have any recomendations? I need a bag that can carry a pair of boots, helmet, snow pants and enough clothing for 1 week of skiing.

I have one of the Dakine Split rollers. mostly use it for neatly storing my gear and being able to pick up everything and take it at once.

But it fits everything:
-2 pairs of boots
-4 pairs of pants
-4 pairs of gloves
-3 goggles
-2 pairs of skins
-base layers
-socks
-crampons
i think I got it from backcountry for around $90

and there's still room. My only complaint is that in an airport when you want it to stand upright, it sometimes falls over backwards but if you're smart about packing correctly its not a problem

I use a northface base camp duffel 140l

they have other sizes. i just love the 140l

comes with life time warranty and is amazing. only fault is it has no wheels when it is super heavy.

-ShredTheGnar- sorry for not mentioning in the OP but im looking for something with a little more structure than just a duffle bag and hopefully with wheels

What size (in litres, cubic inches w/e) would you guys recomend for this kind of use?
