Softside Bigger Carry-On in marineblauw, nylon handbagagekoffer

Navy Blue gives the Softside Bigger Carry-On a quiet, business-trip look, and the high-strength nylon shell backs it up. Wet pavement, a case shoved into the bin sideways — it takes both.

We ran this suitcase through rain and shine before signing off on it. Standard size, so it fits the overhead bin of most US airlines while still giving you more packing space.

• Two hidden, easy-access front pockets for whatever you grab mid-flight
• A front lid that opens flat instead of splitting the bag in half
• Expansion feature for the return trip when the case is already full
• Proprietary stabilizer holding the bag upright at the gate

Durability details sit where the wear actually happens, which is the part that keeps every trip rolling smoothly.
