Until you get to the point in your life where you get paid time off, you don’t really care about luggage. If you’re just going on a weekend jaunt with your friends and you’re unemployed (and/or broke), you just throw a bunch of clothes (that are probably dirty but pass the smell test) into the nearest backpack and go. Once you move on to bigger and better things though, quality luggage is pretty much a necessity. It keeps your suits, her dresses, your shoes, toiletries, shirts, etc. from meeting their untimely end thanks to crappy luggage from the big box store and a baggage handler that probably shouldn’t even be bagging groceries. Victorinox Swiss Army’s new line of Spectra Luggage is the ultimate in hardside travel cases. Made of 100% pure Bayer polycarbonate and packing 360 degree movement, each piece in the collection will get you through the gate to the bar and back as painlessly as possible—with your stuff in tact.
