Locating luggage

*This is the last installment on our series about luggage.

Finding the "right" luggage can be a challenge. Many factors come into play -- price, style, and durability quickly come to mind -- with different weights attached to each attribute. Trade-offs, inevitably, must occur. The key to finding the perfect luggage comes from separating your non-negotiables from necessities, distinguishing nice-to-have from need-to-have, to pare down your choices to a tractable number.

The first thing many people look at is also, probably, the most pertinent: price. On the website http://www.luggage.com/ prices vary from $18 to $2751 dollars. That last number isn't an anomaly.


Prices vary enormously depending on the brand. This large carry-on from Gucci (on left) is $1990. It does, however, have wheels.

You can find out more at http://www.gucci.com/.

By contrast, this Samsonite bag (on right), that is eerily similar, is steal at $179.95.



Innovative and revolutionary are two words most people don't associate with luggage. However, there have been advances and changes that are worth looking into when it comes to luggage.



SkyRoll, the "world's first roll-up garment bag", is a likely contender for the most innovative luggage bag. Since you don't fold your clothes -- you simply wrap them around -- they won't get creases.

As the picture to the left shows, it's not a traditional suitcase. It is designed for carry-on only and can complement your existing luggage.

Some people think Samsonite is synonymous with luggage. They might be right. The brand has certainly penetrated pop culture as this clip from the movie "Dumb and Dumber" clearly illustrates.
