Whether you’re planning a far-flung South East Asian escape or a two-week Mediterranean sojourn, the best suitcases make travelling smoother. Unlike your go-to carry on or personal bag, there are more things to consider when shopping for check-in luggage.
For travel editors and experts clocking up the air miles, a good suitcase makes a world of difference. Above all, it needs to be shock-absorbent and sturdy, but effortless to manoeuvre and easy to pack. From Rimowa and Carl Friedrik’s luxurious aluminium designs – both are used by the one per cent in Succession and The White Lotus – to Away and July’s stylish yet accessibly priced luggage, there’s more choice than ever when it comes to suitcases.
