The main benefits of choosing hard-side luggage include:
Quality and attention to detail give Travelpro® the edge over other hard-shell luggage. 100% polycarbonate cases provide lightweight and water-resistant protection with enough flex to resist impact damage. Molded corner guards reinforce high-wear points, and all zippers, wheels, and other parts undergo a rigorous testing process.
Travelpro® hard shell suitcases feature split case designs for easy packing, with zippered expansion options that give you up to 2” more packing capacity per bag if needed, like the best-selling Platinum Elite Travelpro 23 inch spinner or compact 21 inch carry on spinner (expanding hard-shell carry-on luggage may exceed airline carry-on size restrictions). Interior divider panels, multiple accessory pockets, and built-on TSA locks help you secure and organize luggage contents.
Hard-shell luggage is a good choice if you're looking for durable, maneuverable suitcases that protect your belongings. Most hardside suitcases offer integrated locks for better protection against theft and are more challenging to cut into. Hard shell suitcases also resist travel-related damage better than soft-shell bags.
People prefer hard-shell luggage because it’s durable, damage-resistant, easy to clean, and offers more protection for valuables.
Aluminum hard-side luggage offers the most protection and durability but is so heavy the luggage shell makes up a large portion of your airline weight allowance. ABS, or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, shells are the lightest but offer less protection. Travelpro® uses 100% polycarbonate for the shell material, which is lightweight but offers excellent protection for luggage.
