The Briggs & Riley Baseline Medium 26" Expandable Spinner is a checked suitcase built for longer trips, with one-touch CX compression expansion that adds packing room and then squeezes it back down. Inside, a tri-fold garment folder with a foam roll bar holds one to two suits, and the Outsider handle sits outside the bag so the interior stays flat and wrinkle-free. It suits business travelers and anyone checking a bag who wants garment care and a lifetime warranty. Against cheaper spinners it costs more and weighs more, but owners say the build and the compression system hold up over years of trips.

Owners of the Baseline line praise the build quality, the Outsider handle and the CX compression system, and many report years of heavy travel with few problems. The main complaints are weight and the higher outlay compared with mainstream bags.
The Baseline Medium 26" Expandable Spinner is a ballistic nylon suitcase from Briggs & Riley's Baseline collection. One-touch CX expansion adds packing space: press the CX buttons and pull up the sides to expand, then zip closed and push down to compress.
Inside, a built-in tri-fold garment folder with a foam roll bar holds 1 to 2 suits. Garment panels and cinch straps limit creasing and keep contents from shifting. The lining is a contrasting color, so contents are easy to see. Two mesh lid zip pockets hold accessories.
Outside, the Outsider handle keeps the packing surface inside flat. The aircraft-grade aluminum telescoping handle has multiple stop heights and a V-groove design. Shock-absorbing spinner wheels turn 360°. Corner guards of impact-resistant material protect the case. The SpeedThru pocket gives access to items at security checkpoints, and its orange lining shows when it is open. The PowerPocket holds a battery pack and a cell phone for charging on the go.
