Abstract
An article of luggage, such as a rolling duffel, includes a base, opposing ends connected to the base and opposing sides connected to the base and the opposing ends. A top including a lid is connectable to the opposing sides and the opposing ends. The sides and top are formed of a deformable material. A reinforcing member extends substantially along the length of the top, so that the article of luggage may be stood on one of the opposing ends such that the other end is at least partially supported by the reinforced top. The top may be formed completely by the lid, and the reinforcing member may be a frame extending around the periphery of the lid. The reinforcing member may be formed of a rigid plastic material.
