Had a golf bag zipper that needed repair. Prompt service and great repair work for a fair price. People at the store were very helpful and nice.

I have had two bags repaired by Burt and his team. Both were done quickly and I am extremely pleased. The cost for my carry on repair was less than expected also sooner that I thought it would be. I strongly recommend this company.

I recently called this establishment about fixing a zipper on my Baggalini. The person I spoke to was very friendly and helpful so I decided to bring it in. He fixed it right in front of me. I was so impressed with the service here. They have a wonderful selection of travel accessories and suitcase cases. I said I felt like I was in a candy store because of my love for travel and all the things here that help to make it easier. I was impressed with his knowledge of travel bags and their prices were excellent. Will recommend to others I know.

I needed the band on my Louis Vuitton neverful tote replaced because the leather was cracked. Traveling Bags did an excellent job and I'm beyond pleased. My job took 3-4 weeks to complete...just an FYI if you need a quick fix.

Have used Traveling Bags a number of times for luggage repair. Our set (Travelpro) is more than 20 years old, but Traveling Bags always seems to be able to find the parts and fix it like it was new. Highly recommended!

One stop shop for luggage needs. Owner was incredibly knowledgeable and unlike other places did not push the most expensive bag. Instead he showed me my options side by side going through the features as well as the pros and cons of each as well as the warranties offered by each company. Big fan of the experience, luggage options, and my purchase.

I was so distraught when another luggage company in this area went out of business. Finding Traveling Bags was a true gift for this business traveler. The work is exceptional as is the customer service. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I have taken two bags to be repaired. A Tory Burch handbag that had come loose at the seams around the handle and an LV vintage clutch. The LV clutch needed the strap repaired and touch up around edges. I contacted LV directly and they said they were unable to repair it.Travel Bags Luggage & Repair did a fabulous job repairing both bags back to their original condition. I highly recommend them and their rates are very reasonable.

Searched high and low for wheels for my Travel Pro Crew Series carry on suitcase. Even the manufacturer could not match my wheels. They claimed they could only do it if it had a "number" with the type of bag. It absolutely DOESN'T. The "Crew Series Plus" was evidently made at a time when they didn't use numbers. I thought it would be a simple matter to give the dimensions of my suitcase wheels to them and match a wheel up...NOT..at least not for the manufacturer but Burt matched it to the mm in a matter of hours!! They saved me from having to trash(or carry) my beloved suitcase. Love you guys!!

I am SO happy, I took my favorite purse in, hoping they could repair or replace the handles. Their "leather guy" checked it out and an estimate was emailed to me. Once I approved the estimate, my purse handles were repaired. The owners of the shop are super helpful and personable and the transaction very professional. My beautiful leather purse handles look as good as new and are probably even sturdier than new!I happily recommend them for luggage and purse repairs and they have an extensive selection of luggage and travel items.

This review is actually from my wife Kathie.It has been months and I am still in awe of the incredible service Burt provided when there was a mix-up in the delivery of my Travel Pro bag. Because I was out of town by the time we realized there was an issue, Burt was willing to drive the 25 miles to my house to intercept delivery and hold my bag at the store until I returned. He even offered to ship the new bag to me (in California) once it was delivered! Thankfully none of that occurred and everything worked out. But I will never forget Burt’s incredible customer service that was offered so calmly and pleasantly. I could feel my blood pressure go down just hearing his voice! Thank you so so much Burt.

Burt absolutely gets a 5-star rating. He has gone above and beyond throughout the years in helping me choose just the right pieces of Briggs and Riley luggage for my travels. My last purchase with Burt was the Briggs and Riley backpack. He was so helpful and accommodating in getting it for me at his store so I could see it first before I purchased it. I love it! It's perfect for travel. So happy to have his store to be able to see the products firsthand. If at any time you are planning on purchasing a piece or pieces of luggage, I highly recommend Burts Traveling Bags. He's great to work with.

A new owner took over and was able to find my lost suitcase in the shuffle, fix it, and send it back to me so I didn't have to come pick it up! He even gave me recommendations for additional products for the future that are better quality and easier to fix. I've never had better customer service!January 2022 – Update: still the same amazing service just in a new location. Brought in a suitcase that needed new wheels. Even though the style is no longer in production they were able to offer a substitute that has worked perfectly and for a reasonable price! I live in Madison and will continue to travel far to get to this location... the customer service is worth it! They even helped me arrange to pay online since I was out of town. I will always come back.

My sister turned me onto this place when I needed my luggage repaired. They did a great job of repairing that but the more pleasant surprise was the store and the owners! The store has sooooooo many necessities and gadgets for the traveler......I spent more money that first day than my airfare for my trip! LOL The owners are so sweet and helpful and we had some great conversations. Great people, great store, great experience!!

Great store for one stop shopping for travel. I had a tote bag fixed with new straps that turned out wonderfully. Burt was helpful and it was finished in just a week or so. Great luggage and traveling supplies. And you can book a vacation with Holly or get information for your next get-away. Great store!!

I love this store! Very friendly and helpful staff! I was searching for a Travelpro bag and they had a great selection. They were very patient with me as I compared all of the options. They also do repairs if they are ever needed so that's a plus. I'd highly recommend going to their store if you need new luggage!

Loved this store in the old location with the previous ownership and still love it now. It hasn't missed a beat! Plus it is closer to home for us. Repairs are done quickly and expertly. We have some fantastic luggage from Traveling Bags and will continue to be customers.

Unbelievable customer service! Dealt with Burt for a repair of two pieces of Travel Pro luggage, and it went perfect! We were in between trips, so his repair window was small, but he got it done for us. I would highly recommend Traveling Bags to anyone.

Very grateful that there is someone in MKE area that still repairs luggage. My suitcase, which was only a year old, had a wheel that was totally destroyed by the airline. Repair was completed in a timely manner and the suitcase looks like new, again. Very pleased and would recommend!

We just bought two sets of luggage from this store. Burt was extremely knowledgeable and helped us pick out just the right bags. He took the time to explain each of the bags pros and cons, he was patient with all of our questions, he gave us a GREAT deal, and we even got to hear a really cool alligator story. This store is second to none. It is a must if you are in the market for any type of bag. they know their stuff! So impressive!! Wow. just WOW.

They converted my black handbag to be more functional, from 3 sections to just one, also replaced the zipper. I couldn’t be happier with results, just flawlessly done, looks just beautiful.

The customer service and work here is spectacular! I walked in with a wonky zipper on my hard shell suitcase and it was fixed right away. I was SO very happy with this service and will definitely go back when/if the time should come. I was also advised that the fix might hold for a week, month, years or it may never break again; I appreciated the honestly. I was also given the cost of what it would be to repair should the zipper go all crazy on me again. We all know how our bags get tossed around on the planes 🙂

When I first looked for a luggage repair shop, I was wondering what I'd find. What I found with Traveling Bags was a professional and friendly couple who helped me while I waited and were VERY reasonably priced. I can all but guarantee that I will use these folks exclusively going forward, and even purchase my next set of luggage from them!

My Hartmann carry-on bag of 25 years and lots of sentimental value was damaged on a recent trip by the airport baggage handlers. Traveling Bags was able to replace the broken handle with a stronger version that nearly matches the color of our luggage. Plus they did it in 1/2 of the time promised. Very impressed!

I am so incredibly happy with Traveling Bags. I’m a vintage designer purse collector. I took in a vintage lady dior, a small neverfull and an old Louis Vuitton book bag. The Louis was in bad condition! It took time and the cost definitely reflected the work needed. But I am beyond thrilled with how my little vintage babies came back!

Aaaammmmazing service and fantastic selection of luggage and accessories. We live in San Antonio and we had a wheel break and we were lucky they had the part. We have to travel back in a few weeks and we are bringing another piece to fix. So happy we found them.

My personalized and expensive soft-side golf travel bag lost a wheel in flight on my way to Kohler. I contact Traveling Bags and he said he could fix it and had the part in stock. He did an amazing job, and because I had to drive 70 miles each way, he replaced both wheel while I wait. The bag is like new and cost me less than the price of the cheapest soft-side I have seen on the market. It took 1/2 hour from the time I gave him the bag to the time I left. I highly recommend them!

We took a piece of luggage in about a year ago and were very happy with the repair. Stopped in this week to get luggage for a gift and were amazed at how great the service was. We walked out with a much better understanding of what to look for in our purchase and with three new pieces that will be gifted in the coming weeks. Thank you to Burt and Holly for all of their help!

Fantastic experience at Traveling Bags Luggage and Repair! You cannot find a better example of professionalism, kindness and knowledge than Burt. His superior repair ability took our well-traveled luggage to its original form. He repaired a broken zipper and replaced our suitcase handles with great ease and precision. It is a pleasure to highly recommend Traveling Bags Luggage and Repair for all your luggage repair needs. Expertise like this is rare and wonderous!

Burt is the Best! I called him bc another luggage repair shop referred him. What a GEM Burt is. He texted me, then we FaceTimed to see all the pieces I needed for new wheels on my very, very old carry-on bags. I would have loved to have gone to his shop but I’m 2 hours away. He shipped my wheels promptly. I was so excited when I opened the box. He took some time with me bc I had 3 different styles of TravelPro Crew series. Each style had a different type of axle but Burt had the parts. Super reasonable price. Super nice guy. I have larger suitcases. If they got damaged I would drive the 2 hours to get those bags fixed! He gave me some great helpful hints too. Just like the other luggage repair shop, I would recommend Traveling Bags Luggage & Repair FOR SURE!

The handle on my trusty Travel Pro suitcase was broken on a recent trip and I was surprised to find that there was actually a place that could repair it. Traveling Bags did an excellent job on this repair at an affordable cost. And there is a lot more that Traveling Bags can do, like repairing a broad range of leather goods. I highly recommend Traveling Bags for quick, efficient, and excellent service.

Great product Knowledge and excellent customer service. Purchased a golf travel bag and found out they services high end purses for the fraction of the price of the manufacturer. Wife's going to love this...Sweet. Also, and even greater, they donate and support police service dogs. Buy local...A real small business gem.

I sent in my Louis Vuitton handbag to have the straps that hold one of the handles on. The fee was more than fair. The leather and the yellow thread is exactly the same color as the original. I will be doing business with Milwaukee Traveling Bags again.

Love this place. I took a piece of Travelpro luggage to have a handle repaired as part of a warranty. The owner knew I had driven an hour to get to him and took the time to repair my handle immediately, so I wouldn't have to travel back and forth again. The repair was done beautifully.
David Champaign
20:02 26 Mar 21
I called for a handle replacement on a TravelPro bag. Burt was able to get me exactly what I needed and was even willing to text back and forth to ensure I received the correct part. He shipped the part the same day and I received soon after. Thanks for the great service, Burt!

This is the first time I have ever done a Google Review, solely due to the quality of this place. First off, they were perhaps the only business in the greater Milwaukee area willing to fix the zipper on my x-country ski boots. And they did it in time for me to get my boots back (quick turn-around) for an upcoming ski race. Secondly, when picking up my boots I inadvertently locked my keys in my vehicle. The owner (?) called the local police and helped me arrange for a local officer to come out and do a "lock out". I can't say enough good things about Traveling Bags and will be going to them for any service they provide in the future. Great business, well worth supporting.

It has taken me way to long to write this review. I want to say that they went out of their way to locate a collapsible handle for my Travelpro roller bag. I know he had to dig through a lot of items in his warehouse to locate the right one. This is great establishment to do business with. Thank you for getting what I needed!

I had my mother's vintage Samsonsite train case restored here and I could not be happier with the results. Mr. Robinson and staff did remarkable work on the restoration.

Ripped the side of my favorite work tote on a doorknob, thought it was ruined. It's salmon color so couldn't find any leather to patch with. Traveling Bags worked a miracle! She patched it from the inside and you can barely see where it was. THANKS. And picked up a couple facemasks from the website too.

I've had luggage repaired here twice this year, in both cases expecting a "sorry, beyond repair" answer. Both pieces were done quite promptly for charges I consider very reasonable and made virtually like new. A nice place to do business and a problem free experience

After a wonderful trip to Jamaica minus a wheel on my good luggage, it's now back in commission and you would never know anything happened to it. Bonus I got a handbag strap revised too. Now I have a go to place for luggage and leather repairs.

Pilot friendly! Needed a couple seems sewed up near the zippers on my Luggage Works Stealth. Since I had a trip coming up before the repairs could be done they gave me a similar black loaner bag at no charge to use while they repaired my case. Repairs were great and reasonably priced.

Outstanding repair of a Baggallini bag zipper!! The new zipper installed matched the other hardware and the original zipper pull and nylon zipper stop were reattached. Even the contrast color stitching on the inside was as per original. Excellent work. I will be returning with other repairs for them.

Just before Christmas we needed a 20+ year old guitar case to be refurbished as part of a gift with a restored ESP guitar. The case was in bad shape. Bart helped us find the hardware we needed to redo the case Which wasn't easy since the case wasn't made any more. He also did a fabulous job restoring the case which looked like new when it was done. I highly recommend Traveling Bags!

If you need new luggage, Traveling Bags is the place to go! They have expertise in the luggage industry with the various brand names with important need-to-know consumer information such as durability, reliability, ease of use, unique features, pricing, important sizing information (allowable domestic vs. international maximum sizes for carry ons), different warranties for each brand etc. etc. They are extremely customer oriented, helpful, and friendly and think of everything you need to know before buying new luggage. They made what could be a confusing situation a breeze and a very pleasant experience! My husband and I highly recommend them!

Just went to drop my Travelpro crew bag off for a handle repair - it’s at least 11 years old and lost a screw on my flight this week. He asked if I had a few minutes to wait, fixed it right away and even added a zipper where the zipper pull had fallen off. Super friendly and helpful, and very reasonably priced. I hoped by dropping it off today, I’d have it back for Thanksgiving travel, but I drove home with it repaired and in my trunk! Great niche business with fantastic service.

I stopped into Traveling Bags after reading good things about them on Facebook. I wasn't disappointed. I was looking for a backpack to use daily as my purse and found the perfect solution. (They also have a large selection of cross body strap purses too.) Check them out!

Ricardo luggage wrecked by the airline luggage employees. Burt couldn't repair it due to how badly it was broken but he contacted Ricardo for us and was able to get them to send us a replacement bag for little to no cost. I would certainly utilize these guys for any luggage repair/replacement situations in the future and they have a wealth of experience, contacts, and products.

Have not visited their new location yet. But have used them a few times in the past for repairs to a couple of older TravelPro bags with broken wheel housings. They located hard-to-find parts and were quick to fix my bags. They also did some leather repairs to my wife's handbag. Looks good as new.

My hard-shell luggage had one of its wheels pushed in so that it would not roll properly. I suspect that the smooth finish allowed it to slide off a stack of bags and land on the wheel. Traveling Bags made an excellent repair by popping out the wheel and adding fiberglass to reinforce that corner. The repair saved my $400 piece of luggage. I am very happy with their work.

I’ve had two things repaired here-they did a great job on both! They replaced leather straps on my favorite plaid bag, even recreating stylist stitching that was on the original strap. I didn’t expect they would be able to do that but they did and it looks great!

I was a little hesitant after reading some not so great reviews, but other places had worse reviews. I went ahead and brought in two bags. I was very pleasantly surprised. The repairs were excellent, and the bags were ready sooner than expected. Peggy was very nice. Yes, the place is crowded, and it looks disorganized, but this did not effect the repair. I would definitely use this business again.

I used their repair service several times and the bags work as good as new. Delsey referred me to them and the bag repair was covered 100 percent.

I have had two bags repaired by Burt and his team. Both were done quickly and I am extremely pleased. The cost for my carry on repair was less than expected also sooner that I thought it would be. I strongly recommend this company.

I recently called this establishment about fixing a zipper on my Baggalini. The person I spoke to was very friendly and helpful so I decided to bring it in. He fixed it right in front of me. I was so impressed with the service here. They have a wonderful selection of travel accessories and suitcase cases. I said I felt like I was in a candy store because of my love for travel and all the things here that help to make it easier. I was impressed with his knowledge of travel bags and their prices were excellent. Will recommend to others I know.

I needed the band on my Louis Vuitton neverful tote replaced because the leather was cracked. Traveling Bags did an excellent job and I'm beyond pleased. My job took 3-4 weeks to complete...just an FYI if you need a quick fix.

Have used Traveling Bags a number of times for luggage repair. Our set (Travelpro) is more than 20 years old, but Traveling Bags always seems to be able to find the parts and fix it like it was new. Highly recommended!

One stop shop for luggage needs. Owner was incredibly knowledgeable and unlike other places did not push the most expensive bag. Instead he showed me my options side by side going through the features as well as the pros and cons of each as well as the warranties offered by each company. Big fan of the experience, luggage options, and my purchase.

I was so distraught when another luggage company in this area went out of business. Finding Traveling Bags was a true gift for this business traveler. The work is exceptional as is the customer service. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I have taken two bags to be repaired. A Tory Burch handbag that had come loose at the seams around the handle and an LV vintage clutch. The LV clutch needed the strap repaired and touch up around edges. I contacted LV directly and they said they were unable to repair it.Travel Bags Luggage & Repair did a fabulous job repairing both bags back to their original condition. I highly recommend them and their rates are very reasonable.

Searched high and low for wheels for my Travel Pro Crew Series carry on suitcase. Even the manufacturer could not match my wheels. They claimed they could only do it if it had a "number" with the type of bag. It absolutely DOESN'T. The "Crew Series Plus" was evidently made at a time when they didn't use numbers. I thought it would be a simple matter to give the dimensions of my suitcase wheels to them and match a wheel up...NOT..at least not for the manufacturer but Burt matched it to the mm in a matter of hours!! They saved me from having to trash(or carry) my beloved suitcase. Love you guys!!

I am SO happy, I took my favorite purse in, hoping they could repair or replace the handles. Their "leather guy" checked it out and an estimate was emailed to me. Once I approved the estimate, my purse handles were repaired. The owners of the shop are super helpful and personable and the transaction very professional. My beautiful leather purse handles look as good as new and are probably even sturdier than new!I happily recommend them for luggage and purse repairs and they have an extensive selection of luggage and travel items.

This review is actually from my wife Kathie.It has been months and I am still in awe of the incredible service Burt provided when there was a mix-up in the delivery of my Travel Pro bag. Because I was out of town by the time we realized there was an issue, Burt was willing to drive the 25 miles to my house to intercept delivery and hold my bag at the store until I returned. He even offered to ship the new bag to me (in California) once it was delivered! Thankfully none of that occurred and everything worked out. But I will never forget Burt’s incredible customer service that was offered so calmly and pleasantly. I could feel my blood pressure go down just hearing his voice! Thank you so so much Burt.

Burt absolutely gets a 5-star rating. He has gone above and beyond throughout the years in helping me choose just the right pieces of Briggs and Riley luggage for my travels. My last purchase with Burt was the Briggs and Riley backpack. He was so helpful and accommodating in getting it for me at his store so I could see it first before I purchased it. I love it! It's perfect for travel. So happy to have his store to be able to see the products firsthand. If at any time you are planning on purchasing a piece or pieces of luggage, I highly recommend Burts Traveling Bags. He's great to work with.

A new owner took over and was able to find my lost suitcase in the shuffle, fix it, and send it back to me so I didn't have to come pick it up! He even gave me recommendations for additional products for the future that are better quality and easier to fix. I've never had better customer service!January 2022 – Update: still the same amazing service just in a new location. Brought in a suitcase that needed new wheels. Even though the style is no longer in production they were able to offer a substitute that has worked perfectly and for a reasonable price! I live in Madison and will continue to travel far to get to this location... the customer service is worth it! They even helped me arrange to pay online since I was out of town. I will always come back.

My sister turned me onto this place when I needed my luggage repaired. They did a great job of repairing that but the more pleasant surprise was the store and the owners! The store has sooooooo many necessities and gadgets for the traveler......I spent more money that first day than my airfare for my trip! LOL The owners are so sweet and helpful and we had some great conversations. Great people, great store, great experience!!

Great store for one stop shopping for travel. I had a tote bag fixed with new straps that turned out wonderfully. Burt was helpful and it was finished in just a week or so. Great luggage and traveling supplies. And you can book a vacation with Holly or get information for your next get-away. Great store!!

I love this store! Very friendly and helpful staff! I was searching for a Travelpro bag and they had a great selection. They were very patient with me as I compared all of the options. They also do repairs if they are ever needed so that's a plus. I'd highly recommend going to their store if you need new luggage!

We just bought two sets of luggage from this store. Burt was extremely knowledgeable and helped us pick out just the right bags. He took the time to explain each of the bags pros and cons, he was patient with all of our questions, he gave us a GREAT deal, and we even got to hear a really cool alligator story. This store is second to none. It is a must if you are in the market for any type of bag. they know their stuff! So impressive!! Wow. just WOW.

The customer service and work here is spectacular! I walked in with a wonky zipper on my hard shell suitcase and it was fixed right away. I was SO very happy with this service and will definitely go back when/if the time should come. I was also advised that the fix might hold for a week, month, years or it may never break again; I appreciated the honestly. I was also given the cost of what it would be to repair should the zipper go all crazy on me again. We all know how our bags get tossed around on the planes 🙂

When I first looked for a luggage repair shop, I was wondering what I'd find. What I found with Traveling Bags was a professional and friendly couple who helped me while I waited and were VERY reasonably priced. I can all but guarantee that I will use these folks exclusively going forward, and even purchase my next set of luggage from them!

My Hartmann carry-on bag of 25 years and lots of sentimental value was damaged on a recent trip by the airport baggage handlers. Traveling Bags was able to replace the broken handle with a stronger version that nearly matches the color of our luggage. Plus they did it in 1/2 of the time promised. Very impressed!

I am so incredibly happy with Traveling Bags. I’m a vintage designer purse collector. I took in a vintage lady dior, a small neverfull and an old Louis Vuitton book bag. The Louis was in bad condition! It took time and the cost definitely reflected the work needed. But I am beyond thrilled with how my little vintage babies came back!

My personalized and expensive soft-side golf travel bag lost a wheel in flight on my way to Kohler. I contact Traveling Bags and he said he could fix it and had the part in stock. He did an amazing job, and because I had to drive 70 miles each way, he replaced both wheel while I wait. The bag is like new and cost me less than the price of the cheapest soft-side I have seen on the market. It took 1/2 hour from the time I gave him the bag to the time I left. I highly recommend them!

We took a piece of luggage in about a year ago and were very happy with the repair. Stopped in this week to get luggage for a gift and were amazed at how great the service was. We walked out with a much better understanding of what to look for in our purchase and with three new pieces that will be gifted in the coming weeks. Thank you to Burt and Holly for all of their help!

Fantastic experience at Traveling Bags Luggage and Repair! You cannot find a better example of professionalism, kindness and knowledge than Burt. His superior repair ability took our well-traveled luggage to its original form. He repaired a broken zipper and replaced our suitcase handles with great ease and precision. It is a pleasure to highly recommend Traveling Bags Luggage and Repair for all your luggage repair needs. Expertise like this is rare and wonderous!

Burt is the Best! I called him bc another luggage repair shop referred him. What a GEM Burt is. He texted me, then we FaceTimed to see all the pieces I needed for new wheels on my very, very old carry-on bags. I would have loved to have gone to his shop but I’m 2 hours away. He shipped my wheels promptly. I was so excited when I opened the box. He took some time with me bc I had 3 different styles of TravelPro Crew series. Each style had a different type of axle but Burt had the parts. Super reasonable price. Super nice guy. I have larger suitcases. If they got damaged I would drive the 2 hours to get those bags fixed! He gave me some great helpful hints too. Just like the other luggage repair shop, I would recommend Traveling Bags Luggage & Repair FOR SURE!

The handle on my trusty Travel Pro suitcase was broken on a recent trip and I was surprised to find that there was actually a place that could repair it. Traveling Bags did an excellent job on this repair at an affordable cost. And there is a lot more that Traveling Bags can do, like repairing a broad range of leather goods. I highly recommend Traveling Bags for quick, efficient, and excellent service.

Great product Knowledge and excellent customer service. Purchased a golf travel bag and found out they services high end purses for the fraction of the price of the manufacturer. Wife's going to love this...Sweet. Also, and even greater, they donate and support police service dogs. Buy local...A real small business gem.

I sent in my Louis Vuitton handbag to have the straps that hold one of the handles on. The fee was more than fair. The leather and the yellow thread is exactly the same color as the original. I will be doing business with Milwaukee Traveling Bags again.

Love this place. I took a piece of Travelpro luggage to have a handle repaired as part of a warranty. The owner knew I had driven an hour to get to him and took the time to repair my handle immediately, so I wouldn't have to travel back and forth again. The repair was done beautifully.
David Champaign

I called for a handle replacement on a TravelPro bag. Burt was able to get me exactly what I needed and was even willing to text back and forth to ensure I received the correct part. He shipped the part the same day and I received soon after. Thanks for the great service, Burt!

This is the first time I have ever done a Google Review, solely due to the quality of this place. First off, they were perhaps the only business in the greater Milwaukee area willing to fix the zipper on my x-country ski boots. And they did it in time for me to get my boots back (quick turn-around) for an upcoming ski race. Secondly, when picking up my boots I inadvertently locked my keys in my vehicle. The owner (?) called the local police and helped me arrange for a local officer to come out and do a "lock out". I can't say enough good things about Traveling Bags and will be going to them for any service they provide in the future. Great business, well worth supporting.

It has taken me way to long to write this review. I want to say that they went out of their way to locate a collapsible handle for my Travelpro roller bag. I know he had to dig through a lot of items in his warehouse to locate the right one. This is great establishment to do business with. Thank you for getting what I needed!

I had my mother's vintage Samsonsite train case restored here and I could not be happier with the results. Mr. Robinson and staff did remarkable work on the restoration.

Ripped the side of my favorite work tote on a doorknob, thought it was ruined. It's salmon color so couldn't find any leather to patch with. Traveling Bags worked a miracle! She patched it from the inside and you can barely see where it was. THANKS. And picked up a couple facemasks from the website too.

I've had luggage repaired here twice this year, in both cases expecting a "sorry, beyond repair" answer. Both pieces were done quite promptly for charges I consider very reasonable and made virtually like new. A nice place to do business and a problem free experience

Outstanding repair of a Baggallini bag zipper!! The new zipper installed matched the other hardware and the original zipper pull and nylon zipper stop were reattached. Even the contrast color stitching on the inside was as per original. Excellent work. I will be returning with other repairs for them.

Just before Christmas we needed a 20+ year old guitar case to be refurbished as part of a gift with a restored ESP guitar. The case was in bad shape. Bart helped us find the hardware we needed to redo the case Which wasn't easy since the case wasn't made any more. He also did a fabulous job restoring the case which looked like new when it was done. I highly recommend Traveling Bags!

Stopped in to have a zipper on a coach purse repaired. Burt asked if he could take it in the back for a minute, and within 30 seconds he was back and had it fixed! Service was wonderful! I would highly recommend coming here for luggage/purse repairs.

We found the owner to be knowledgeable and very customer focused, making sure we had a quick turnaround on our repair. The shop has many handy travel items all in one spot, making it easy to decide what is the best fit for what I needed. I would return and would recommend to others.

If you need new luggage, Traveling Bags is the place to go! They have expertise in the luggage industry with the various brand names with important need-to-know consumer information such as durability, reliability, ease of use, unique features, pricing, important sizing information (allowable domestic vs. international maximum sizes for carry ons), different warranties for each brand etc. etc. They are extremely customer oriented, helpful, and friendly and think of everything you need to know before buying new luggage. They made what could be a confusing situation a breeze and a very pleasant experience! My husband and I highly recommend them!

Just went to drop my Travelpro crew bag off for a handle repair - it’s at least 11 years old and lost a screw on my flight this week. He asked if I had a few minutes to wait, fixed it right away and even added a zipper where the zipper pull had fallen off. Super friendly and helpful, and very reasonably priced. I hoped by dropping it off today, I’d have it back for Thanksgiving travel, but I drove home with it repaired and in my trunk! Great niche business with fantastic service.

Traveling bags luggage & repair saved my Kate Spade purse! The handles were ruined, but the bag looked unused! Sent it in and when it came back it looked brand spankin’ new! Could not have been happier!! Will definitely recommend and use again.The cherry on top was that the cost was very affordable!

I stopped into Traveling Bags after reading good things about them on Facebook. I wasn't disappointed. I was looking for a backpack to use daily as my purse and found the perfect solution. (They also have a large selection of cross body strap purses too.) Check them out!

Ricardo luggage wrecked by the airline luggage employees. Burt couldn't repair it due to how badly it was broken but he contacted Ricardo for us and was able to get them to send us a replacement bag for little to no cost. I would certainly utilize these guys for any luggage repair/replacement situations in the future and they have a wealth of experience, contacts, and products.

Have not visited their new location yet. But have used them a few times in the past for repairs to a couple of older TravelPro bags with broken wheel housings. They located hard-to-find parts and were quick to fix my bags. They also did some leather repairs to my wife's handbag. Looks good as new.

My hard-shell luggage had one of its wheels pushed in so that it would not roll properly. I suspect that the smooth finish allowed it to slide off a stack of bags and land on the wheel. Traveling Bags made an excellent repair by popping out the wheel and adding fiberglass to reinforce that corner. The repair saved my $400 piece of luggage. I am very happy with their work.

I’ve had two things repaired here-they did a great job on both! They replaced leather straps on my favorite plaid bag, even recreating stylist stitching that was on the original strap. I didn’t expect they would be able to do that but they did and it looks great!

I was a little hesitant after reading some not so great reviews, but other places had worse reviews. I went ahead and brought in two bags. I was very pleasantly surprised. The repairs were excellent, and the bags were ready sooner than expected. Peggy was very nice. Yes, the place is crowded, and it looks disorganized, but this did not effect the repair. I would definitely use this business again.

I used their repair service several times and the bags work as good as new. Delsey referred me to them and the bag repair was covered 100 percent.
