Plus, theres something so dapper about the black-trimmed front pocket and brand name emblazoned across the front.

This Montreal-based luggage company makes a variety of stylish luggage pieces that are super durable, writerAnna Poppsaid.

Consider snagging Aways The Trunk.

At 31 by 17 by 13.7 inches, its one of the largest suitcases on our list.

Its even equipped with several pockets and a compression pad to maximize space and organization.

We especially love that its stain-resistant, meaning its a low-maintenance option thatll look new for years.

I really can’t recommend Beis' larger luggage enough, senior editorMaya Kachroo-Levinesaid.

It closes seamlessly no matter how much you pack into it.

The compartments are extremely well organized, and the exterior shell REALLY holds up.

Made of lightweight yet durable polyester, the Luka is the perfect squishy-yet-structured carry-on.

Many of the pockets are paired with amazingly smooth zippers that have never snagged or broken on us.

The cushioned handles mean I can carry it everywhere pain-free.

Ive even had strangers approach me asking where its from!

It even comes with an ejectable, quick-charging USB-C battery.

But once I started using it, I realized just how durable it is, too.

Im also all about the customizable handle height, being the five foot gal that I am.

And they’re still as solid as the day I got ‘em.

Even more surprising: The wheels are still spinning smoothly, even on rough sidewalks and down cobblestone streets.

I personally love the hot pink, but it comes in black too and at a great price.

No suitcase in the history of suitcases makes me feel fancier than this sleek Rimowa, Parker said.

That said, were loving Aways The Bigger Carry-on.

And despite its larger size, it still adheres to most airlines carry-on size limits.

The Away Bigger Carry On has become the MVP of my travel arsenal, senior editorJasmine Grantsaid.

I also find that the size is absolutely perfect.

For me, hard-sided luggage has a flair that soft-sided bags cant compare to, senior editorSamantha Faleweesaid.

The exterior even boasts an interesting wave-like design which helps with durability and identifiability at the airport.

Oh, and I always know which bag is mine at the carousel thanks to its unique design.

This bag has it all: a lightweight build, protective hardshell, and TSA-approved locks, Domrongchai said.

It boasts tons of pockets both internally and externally, including a dedicated protective laptop sleeve.

Its even convertible, so you might choose to use it as a tote as well.

Are you a rough traveler?

I fully expect this bag to hold up for at least the next 30 years of travel.

Beyond its gorgeous appearance, were obsessed with just how user-friendly it is.

It even has an eye-catching coral-hued interior to set it apart from other suitcases in your collection.

I also love how they can be monogrammed.

This limited edition bag is emblazoned with some serious words to live by.

Similarly, lugging an oversized checked bag on a 3-day jaunt isnt the most practical idea either.

And remember to consider protecting your investment with a qualityluggage rack.
