Shoes

I just got a large duffle in Totally Turquoise for a song, and I wanted to take it on my upcoming trip to Florida. However, it's too big to use as my one carry-on (I'll use my Weekender). On the Vera Bradley website, many people have said they did use it as a carry-on, so I'm assuming the airline they flew let them carry a larger bag than Sothwest Airlines allow.

Has anyone out there put your duffle through as checked baggage, and how did it hold up? Or do you just use it for road trips or something else?
