But it's still an overall solid suitcase with all the features we were looking for in a hardside carry-on. The mighty Shielding range does the talking for itself with its unique 360 ABS embossed shell offering a stunning appeal and great protection. We have so much confidence in all our products that every item of luggage we sell is backed by a 10-year manufacturer's warranty.

The interior structure is minimal, with two pockets, a zippered divider, and a set of compression straps; however, packing cubes can help overcome this potential downside.We particularly loved the internal organization, which includes two divider panels with multiple zippered pockets. Despite fitting so much, it was easy to keep everything organized with the help of zippered divider panels, adjustable compression straps, and multiple accessory pockets, including a waterproof one for your toiletries. They can also be much more high-tech, with possible features ranging from integrated TSA-approved locks and weight indicators to fast-charge USB ports (the latter are only available for carry-ons due to airline regulations).

The only downside we experienced was testing the suitcase on the carpet, where we felt reduced maneuverability (around corners especially). Added benefits include an underside grab handle, an integrated TSA-approved lock, and the right to a 100-day free trial to make sure you’re satisfied. We liked that there was a separate section for shoes and a zippered delicates pocket, but we would have appreciated a section for dirty laundry. Some people prefer softside cases because they are more flexible and, therefore, more forgiving if you have awkwardly shaped items to pack or tend to overstuff your luggage. After a few months of testing, our only qualm with the suitcase is the rollers aren't the best at rolling true and we found them spinning off from side to side at times.

Durability aside, this suitcase also stands out because you can choose the colors of everything from the front and back shell to the zippers, bindings, wheels, and more. Representing the most modern choice when packing for your next trip, travelers everywhere love hardside luggage for its fashionable aesthetic and easy upkeep.
