Hard or soft shell luggage? Which is best for you?

What’s the difference between hard and soft suitcases? We’ve got all you need to know. Here’s a quick lowdown: hard cases offer total protection for your belongings, they keep things nicely organized, they’re easy to clean and some models expand for more room; soft cases are tough, the side pockets are great for quick access, the material is long-lasting and it’s easy to stuff in a little bit extra at the last minute.

Read on for more details and consider this: you can mix it up – soft case carry-on, hard-case checked luggage or vice versa – depending on your needs.

The advantages of hardside luggage
It keeps your belongings safe and secure
A hard shell suitcase is a great option if you want protection for fragile possessions and delicate electronics.

It protects your belongings from the elements
A tough exterior keeps moisture from rain, snow and puddles away from your valuables, helping everything get to your destination in the same condition you packed it.

It’s easy to clean
Don’t worry about dragging your suitcase through the mud. A wipe of a wet cloth usually does it – thanks to state-of-the art, scratch-resistant technology.

The advantages of softside luggage

It’s strong and versatile
Soft shell luggage is highly resistant to wear and tear. It’s strong but versatile – so you can pack those one or two – or three – extra things you wish to bring at the last minute.

It offers easy access
The soft material lets you easily slip a hand into a side pocket or the main case. Just zip open the bag and grab what you need.

It’s flexible
With its flexible edges, softside luggage stacks well in the car making it ideal for road trips and for other tight storing space.

What to consider for business or vacation

Business

Practical luggage
Keep your things organized and easy to access. Compartments, side pockets and quick-zip openings save time. Some carry-on cases have USB ports, so you always have a place to charge things.

Peace of mind
Knowing your valuable electronics and gadgets are safely tucked in a robust bag helps you relax. Suits, shirts and dresses are protected from the elements and come out less wrinkled. Side compartments for laptops get you through security quicker.

Ergonomic and maneuverable
Four wheels get into small spaces and are easier to turn around in a crowd. A high-quality telescopic handle and lightweight bags are much kinder to your body

Vacation

Space and flexibility
Expandable hard cases give you room for extra sweaters or purchases. Outside pockets are great for things to grab along the way: small toys for your kids; everyone’s tickets and passports.

Extra strong and durable
A long stopover or trip isn’t just hard on you. A tough suitcase gets everything there and back in one piece.

​​​​​​​Easy to clean
Dirt and stains can build up after many long trips. Look for materials that are easy to care for. This will keep your luggage looking good for a long time.
