Best Travel Luggage Brands of 2025
Samsonite
Samsonite luggage offers the promise of being compact, spacious, strong, and easy to push around. They are known for offering a wide range of designs and price points, thus ensuring you find the perfect balance between affordability and luxury in whatever luggage you choose. We tested this luggage through and through, and we found that the Samsonite Freeform Hardside Expandable Carry-On was the best carry-on luggage and the Samsonite Winfield 2 Hardside the best-checked luggage.
We were impressed with the brand's strength and durability. Most pieces of luggage went through very aggressive testing, such as impact tests using a baseball bat. The Samsonite roller suitcases rolled without an iota of hesitation across surfaces. Prices are low compared to other brands, but there are costlier options, too. Samsonite offers a 90-day return policy and limited warranties that range from 3 to 10 years.
TravelPro
Travelpro luggage is known for its toughness, smooth wheeling, abundant interiors, and innovative thinking. Hardside and outside models, with expandable capacities and organization features such as zipper panels and cross straps, are aligning spinner wheels, and the sturdiest telescoping handles ensure it is easy to roll across any floor surface. Some of the more cumbersome two-wheeled models are harder to pull when complete, and the checked models are generally heavier.
Other notable picks are the durable and stylish Travelpro Platinum Elite Carry-On Expandable Hardside Spinner and the strong, durable Travelpro x Travel + Leisure Large Check-In Trunk Spinner. Upon actual testing, it was surprising how resilient they both are to some impact without even showing signs of more damage. Travelpro also has a return window of 100 days (30 days for its Essentials), with a warranty of 1 year to a lifetime.
Briggs and Riley
Briggs & Riley shines with its excellent ruggedness, offering soft-sided bags with ballistic nylon exteriors and hard-sided models with shock-absorbing polycarbonate shells. These materials are resistant to crushing impacts; hence, they make perfect luggage for travelers who must experience tremendous bumps along the way. We found their bags especially outstanding in tests, as they received no dents or scratches.
The Briggs & Riley 22-inch Spinner features a unique expansion system for extra packing space, and the Extra Large Trunk Spinner is perfect for those needing more room. Although it may be expensive, this brand comes with lifetime guarantees, suggesting a product that stands up to long-lasting quality. Briggs & Riley can roll with ease and includes repair options, making these an excellent investment for travelers who travel extensively.
Away
Away luggage is minimalist design meets practicality. Sleek suitcases and weekend bags mean their goods are packed full of smart features. We love the brand's attention to detail, especially in the Everywhere Bag, which is suitable for overnight trips or as a personal item. Away's hard side carry-on and checked bags are challenging and easy to clean, though some scratches might appear with heavy use.
We loved the spacious compartments, compression systems, expanders, and laundry bags that tidy things. One of our favorites in the softside category is the Softside Bigger Carry-On, which has sleek styles and easy maneuverability along 360-degree spinner wheels. Away luggage is anything but inexpensive, but it provides sensible, fashion-forward choices guaranteed by a 100-day return guarantee and lifetime warranty.
Beis
Founded by Shay Mitchell, Beis is quickly becoming a fan favorite for thoughtful luggage design. Every bag comes with customizable inserts and removable compartments so that you can customize it to your packing needs. The roomy designs make them perfect for long vacations or weekend getaways. Some of the duffel-style weekenders are too large to fit under airplane seats.
The Weekender shines by expanding to fit everything on your packing list, though it is bulky. For checked luggage, the 29-inch Large Check-in Roller offers lots of room and durability. All Beis suitcases feature easy rolling and easy grips on the handles, making them truly a joy to roll through airports. A built-in luggage weight indicator makes it even more convenient.
Tumi
Tumi is the ultimate luxury luggage for durability, expandable compartments, and smooth spinner wheels. The top pick is the Alpha International Expandable 4-Wheeled Carry-On, which provides lots of space to pack, organizational compartments, and even has a removable garment bag. What we like about Tumi's suitcases is their smart features: laptop sleeves, USB ports, TSA-approved locks, and lockable zippers. The soft sides and hard sides of Tumi's suitcases are built to last, withstanding a heavy hit, and upon opening them, they can stand minor rough handling in tests.
Tumi luggage is easy to maneuver, especially with spinner wheels. However, the bags, especially aluminum ones, are relatively heavy when empty. While the premium price may not be worth it for everybody, the quality and aesthetics portrayed by Tumi is enough to make them very appealing, especially for daily users of organized luggage.
Conclusion
The best luggage brands in 2025 will achieve durability, design, and functionality at the same time, making travel accessible but leaving room to make it enjoyable. Be it spacious, lightweight bags from Samsonite or the luxurious, top-of-the-line Tumi suitcases-there's just the right option for every kind of traveler.
From affordable yet durable choices like Delsey and Travelpro to Beis's thoughtful customization, each brings something unique. When cost and weight become concerns, investment in quality luggage usually pays off with long-lasting performance, smooth maneuverability, and peace of mind. Finally, the right luggage improves travel: safe and more organized belongings, stress-reducing safety, and peace of mind.
