The best vacation can be less than perfect without the best travel gear. Shopping for luggage isn’t exactly fun, but the best quality luggage for any trip is important. Luxury travel designer luggage, often made of leather, should stand up to the bump and scrapes of a trip, yet also attractive enough to make its owner proud.  Frequent travelers all have a trial-and-error period with luggage (no more LeSportSac for Moi!) before finding the best luxury luggage for their travel needs.  Here’s a few that I have tested that lead the pack~

  • Swiss Army - Victorinox Swiss Army Travel Gear won first prize in the Travel Goods Association’s Product Innovation Awards. The Hardside collection is the most durable, hard-sided luggage around and is known to withstand the tests of time and travel.
  • Tumi - Tumi collections include leather and canvas and nylon luggage and carry on bags, and are universally of a handsome design. The sturdiness of Tumi brand luxury travel luggage is of the highest quality. The Theorem Collection won the second prize of the Product Innovation Award from the Travel Goods Association. The Ducati Collection is especially rugged which makes it perfect for the androgynous customer.
  • Louis Vuitton - This is the top luxury label, but this brand of designer luggage also holds up remarkably well. It’s a familiar sight among the luxury travel set, and with good reason: Instant recognition as owning a designer luggage set is important to some travelers. But the classic style is complemented by their sturdy design and well made shoulder straps and wheels. Not my favorite to travel with since the suitcase unpacked alone weighs close to 50 lbs. Pass! I will stick with my Louis handbag instead.
  • Coach - Coach is famous for its high end, top quality purses and handbags. The craftsmanship that goes into those bags also goes into Coach designer leather, nylon and canvas travel totes and luggage. The Coach Signature line is as recognizable as is the Louis Vuitton monogram collection, with a somewhat less gasp inducing price tag. This is not cheap designer luggage by any stretch, but as the designer label goes, it is more affordable – yet also sturdy, well designed, and beautiful.
  • Kenneth Cole - Kenneth Cole Reaction business luggage looks great, and adds a touch of class to business travel. In neutral tones of black and muted colors, this designer luggage line is professional enough for work trips, and sturdy enough for some mild adventure as well as luxury vacations. Kenneth Cole is a brand known for its simple and classic design. 

 

Happy Travels!
