Benefits of Hardside Luggage

Hardside luggage has a few advantages over softside luggage. The main advantage is that a hardshell offers better protection for the items inside. Baggage handlers have a tendency of being quite rough, so a hardside case will prevent the items inside from getting damaged. You’ll also note that we have a much wider range of hardside luggage than softside luggage. Overall, this style is more popular amongst the general public, as it offers a lot more colour choices and finishes. We offer bright and neutral shades, available in both glossy and matte finishes. A hardshell is also a lot easier to clean if it gets dirty, requiring only a wipe down with a  damp cloth. Although hardside luggage isn’t completely water-resistant, it is more likely to protect your belongings in the event of a rain shower. Additionally, hardside suitcases are less likely to get broken into, as it is much more difficult to penetrate a hardshell. If you are prone to overpacking, the hard shell prevents you from taking it too far and bursting the zippers of your bag. In saying this, it is important to remember that hardside luggage will inevitably show more scuffs and scratches than softside, with the chance of cracks forming if baggage handlers are excessively rough with them.

Which Hardside Suitcase Should I Choose?

When choosing a suitcase, it is important to prioritise what is most important to you. If you are after an extremely lightweight case, you can’t beat the premium Samsonite Cosmolite range. If you are on a tight budget, there are a few brands that specialise in affordable luggage. We would recommend the Explorer and Nomad brands, as they offer great value for money. NZ Luggage Co and Tosca are also great quality at an affordable price. If you are heading away on a business trip, you should definitely take a look at our range of Mobile Offices, such as the Pierre Cardin 56cm Carry-On Mobile Office. For kids hardside luggage, check out Disney or Trunki.
