My saddlebags are only of use for the stuff I don't need to get at very often, such as waterproofs, luggage nets, bungee cords, rope etc. For the stuff I need to get to easily (like when I go to the supermarket) I've got a luggage box. It's much more practical.
The only problem is, that to be able to open the box, you need to remove the backrest (sissy bar?) to allow it to hinge forward. It's not really hard to adapt it, & my wife (who rides behind me) says that she prefers the box to the backrest. I've never found any problems with weight or handling, by having a large box, so it might be worth your while investing in one if you want your clothes to be relatively crease free.
