The Best Hard Shell Luggage, Tested and Reviewed
"While we've long been fans of Béis' soft-sided suitcases and weekender bags, we knew we needed to test out the popular hard-shell suitcases ahead of luggage week. Unsurprisingly, both sizes were a hit. “I would recommend this for a traveler who is an exclusive team carry-on member,” commerce producer Paris Wilson says. She managed to fit at least 14 outfits, plus four pairs of shoes and two purses, inside on a recent trip to the Florida Keys. The bag itself is easy to pick up—“I was able to bring it down from the overhead bin myself as well as move it in and out of the trunk of the rental car easily”—and easy to look at: “I got so many compliments on how pretty the carry-on was while in the airport and on vacation. I’d have to agree that the color is beautiful, the size is ideal, and the ribbed exterior adds some really cool dimensions.” $218 at Nordstrom $218 at Béis"
