Product Information

It also looks great, with a ridged shell in a choice of colors from functional black to options such as Sky Blue or Amethyst Purple that are guaranteed to stand out on the luggage carousel. But it's still an overall solid suitcase with all the features we were looking for in a hardside carry-on. We loved how well-organized the suitcase is, with a divider panel that doubles as a compression system and multiple zippered pockets. Even after repeated drop and bat tests, we couldn’t see any signs of damage on its sturdy polycarbonate shell, while extra-strength, water-repellent zippers make this suitcase truly weatherproof. Added benefits include an underside grab handle, an integrated TSA-approved lock, and the right to a 100-day free trial to make sure you’re satisfied.

We were incredibly impressed with how well it handled, rolling like a dream over bumps, smoothly over carpet, and even handling gravel. Carry-on size restrictions vary from carrier to carrier, but as a general rule, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) suggests that suitcases should not be more than 22 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 10 inches deep.

This range is fit with the option to expand, providing up to 25% extra space for all of your packing needs. After a few months of testing, our only qualm with the suitcase is the rollers aren't the best at rolling true and we found them spinning off from side to side at times.

This 3pc set includes a large, medium and cabin case with the option to expand, providing up to 25% extra space. The mighty Shielding range does the talking for itself with its unique 360 ABS embossed shell offering a stunning appeal and great protection. K 50 years of experience in the leather product industry, ensures that quality is at the heart of every Brit-Stitch product. Be careful not to overpack or pack so that sharp or pointed objects come into direct contact with the shell since this will create weak points. Polypropylene is sometimes used in high-end suitcases for its superior lightness (it’s the lightest hardside material out there).

Using the finest leathers in a rainbow of colours and the chance to personalise, you’re sure to find something you’ll love ! You can also purchase a PVC cover to protect your bag from scratches and spills or have it plastic wrapped at the airport before each flight. After taking it on a few trips, our testers reported loving how expandable and easy to move the suitcase is and that it's easy to find on the conveyer belt after checking it onto a plane. For those with a little extra room in their budget, the Travelpro Platinum Elite Carry-On is an intelligent option with a polycarbonate shell designed to flex upon impact and a textured finish that hides all scuffs and scratches.Most of all, we loved how spacious the suitcase was, with an expandable clamshell interior that had space to spare once we packed everything on our list. You should always check individual manufacturer’s guidelines before cleaning your hardside suitcase, as best practices may differ. There are many sizes and styles to choose from, from simple, budget-friendly versions to more expensive ones with features ranging from integrated USB ports to optional monogramming. In the past, heavy materials were synonymous with sturdy ones, but today hardside shells made from lightweight polycarbonate, polypropylene, or ABS plastic offer outstanding durability without adding excess pounds to your luggage scale. We found we needed to use the two-inch expansion to fit all our items in, which made the bag significantly larger and, therefore, harder to fit into the overhead compartment.
