This aluminum carry-on from Zero Halliburton is incredibly resilient. The brand’s luggage was used on the Apollo 11 mission, which tracks, because it seems like you could launch it into space without worrying about damage. The thick, protective aluminum stood up to our baseball bat and drop tests, protecting everything inside. Even the latches proved to be strong — it seemed like the metal bat would break before they did after we hit it repeatedly during testing. Weighing 11 pounds, this suitcase is a bit heavy compared to other carry-ons, and it doesn’t roll quite as smoothly when packed full. Still, the handle seemed sturdy, and we weren’t concerned whatsoever that it would bust open at any point. In the end, we think it’s an excellent investment piece if you’re in the market for luxury luggage that’ll last a lifetime. (The warranty is 10 years, but we’re willing to bet this carry-on will hold up longer.)

Many may be names you are already familiar with; forever staples from Chanel, Gucci and Dior, but you will also find new styles from heritage brands, alongside new names to know in the world of designer handbags, in this round-up. These are the accessories that are actually worth investing in, whether you are treating yourself or looking for a very special gift, in the market for an evening bag or are after a tote that’s perfect for the office. These are designer names you can trust. We love this small Kaia bag from YSL, which is sure to become a treasured piece in your wardrobe. It feels as classic as they come. It’s not difficult to see why Dior’s Saddle bag remains so popular: the style – which first appeared on the catwalk in 1999, became an ‘It’ bag in the Noughties, and has been a staple ever since – is the perfect way to elevate any day or night ensemble.

We were impressed by the thoughtful design features of this gorgeous Hartmann Reserve trunk both inside and out, with a curved handle that adjusts to 12 different positions, waterproof pockets, built-in compartments and dividers, two packing cubes, a shoe bag, a large garment bag, leather details, and hand-painted wheels (that didn’t get chipped or damaged even after we directly hit them with a baseball bat). This Hartmann suitcase has a 50/50 divide, which we thought helped us to evenly distribute the weight using the different compartments. This ultimately made the suitcase light and easy to maneuver, despite the fact that it weighs 14.11 pounds — the heaviest suitcase on this list. The wheels rotated seamlessly, even more smoothly than some of the smallest carry-ons we’ve tested, and you’ll be able to maneuver through a crowded airport pretty easily with this, though it would take up a lot of space in a car trunk or on any sort of public transportation.

Away’s polycarbonate shell suitcases are lightweight, highly functional and relatively well-priced. Named Forbes Vetted’s top pick for Best Carry-On Luggage, the brand’s Bigger Carry-On can easily be tucked in an overhead bin while offering a bit more extra packing space than the . It also has quiet, easy-to-use wheels, an underside grab handle and a laundry bag for storing dirty clothes while on the road. Not to mention, Away’s signature compression system—complete with adjustable straps—allows you to pack an impressive amount inside. As for color variety, there’s something for everyone, from muted Cloud Gray to vibrant Sorbet Orange.
