Luggage types at a glance - the right model for every need
Hard-shell cases are made from hard-wearing materials such as polycarbonate or ABS. They are impact-resistant, dimensionally stable and reliably protect the contents - especially when travelling by plane or on long journeys
Soft-shell cases made of textile materials such as polyester offer you maximum flexibility when packing. Thanks to the outer pockets and stretch pleats, they are ideal for travelling with varying packing volumes or when space is at a premium at home.
Travel bags are lightweight, spacious and can be stowed away flexibly. Whether with wheels or a shoulder strap - they are a good choice for weekend trips, sports or spontaneous excursions
Backpacks with travel volume combine carrying comfort with function. They are ideal for train journeys, city trips or travelling by plane with hand luggage
Leisure bags offer space for everyday life, short trips or sports. Thanks to their compact shape and variable carrying systems, they are particularly versatile.
Size, features and use - what you should look out forChoose the size of your luggage according to the duration and type of your trip: For 2-3 days, a carry-on suitcase (up to 55 cm high) is usually sufficient, for a week a model with approx. 65-70 cm is recommended, for long-distance trips over 75 cm. For travel bags and backpacks, you should pay attention to the volume in litres
Important features are: 360° wheels, telescopic handle, integrated combination lock, water-repellent materials and a well thought-out interior compartment system. Backpacks with back padding and a chest strap significantly increase carrying comfort.
Care, storage and shipping
All types of luggage can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Hard-shell cases and rucksacks are usually insensitive to moisture, while dry storage is recommended for soft-shell models. Many products can be folded into one another or together to save space and are delivered ready for dispatch.
