Luggage that stands out
The difference is in the details. Here’s what makes our award-winning Classic suitcases the best in the world.
Lightweight and durable
As the original hard shell innovators, we’ve perfected the lightweight and virtually unbreakable shell of our suitcases. Built to withstand even the harshest of conditions.
Just roll with it
Smooth-gliding, 360° spinner wheels that move you forward, and never hold you back. Navigating everything from busy airports to cobblestone streets has never been easier.
Fit for every trip
The durable, lightweight, and impact-resistant 100% polycarbonate shell is designed to withstand any journey, and lets you pack (and protect) even more.

The Away Nod™️
Away travelers know—it’s the best-looking luggage at the gate. From handles to wheels to colors, every suitcase component has been thoughtfully considered by our design team.
Handle it all
Our high-grade, quick-release trolley handle is designed for maximum comfort and better maneuverability, featuring two adjustable height settings.
Get a (better) grip
An additional underside grab handle makes our lightweight suitcases even easier to grab and lift—especially from the baggage claim carousel. (We’ve been there.)
Packing level: expert
Our patented interior compression system means you can maximize every inch of packing space, thanks to our double-buckle compression pad and thoughtful interior pockets.
Zip up. Lock in.
Keep all of your belongings safe and secure, thanks to a TSA-approved combination lock and ergonomic, reverse coil zippers that easily pull, swivel, and rotate.

Trips aren’t one size fits all. That’s why our suitcases come in five perfect sizes: Carry-On, checked, and The Trunk. So you can pack up for three days, or three+ weeks.

Drop tested
We know you can't control how your luggage is handled. That's why we perform drop tests, loading up the suitcase and dropping it on every face, corner, and wheel, to ensure there is no cracking or denting.
Jerk tested handles
Our suitcases are designed for maximum stability, especially when it comes to our handles. We perform a jerk test on all handles to simulate real-life use to ensure that they remain stable, even from the toughest handling.
Wheels for the long-haul
There’s a reason why our custom, smooth-gliding wheels are raved about. We perform a mileage test to simulate everything from rough airport carpets to cobblestone streets to ensure our wheels roll smoothly—wherever your travels take you.
