A place to visit would be the factory that pumps up these! I used to know them as Africa-bags. Nowadays "venäjälaukku" is the name. Адно Türkenkoffer Пожалуйста!

Avot harashoo! I didn't think about it too much when I posted this, but it seems these bags are popping up all over the world internets these days.

For example Koranteng's Toli has an extensive essay about "Ghana must go" bags aka. Guyanaese Samsonite or "Help me carry my bag" bag among other nicknames.

Telegraph informs, that the factory to visit would be Zhejiang Daxin Industry Co. Ltd in China.
