Where to shop for luggage in Singapore
1. Delsey
We can’t talk about luggage and not mention Delsey. This French brand has been accompanying travellers for decades with its offerings that combine elegance and practicality. They’re also eco-friendly – the collections and linings are made of recycled materials – which is a plus point in our books. The luxury-looking Chatelet Air 2.0 collection will make your luggage stand out among the crowd while travelling.

2. Muji
This brand isn’t just known for its minimalist homeware and ‘fits. You can also purchase a pretty sturdy suitcase to take on your travels around the world. The Muji hard carry bag is lightweight and spacious – it comes in an array of colours like cream, pastel blue, brown and black to suit your personal style. Not a fan of hard cases? No problem. Just cart out its foldable soft carry bag that can be compressed to half its size for utmost convenience and efficiency.

3. Lojel
Whether you need your luggage of choice designed for easy packing, minimalism or high capacity, there’s something for everyone at Lojel. Its Cubo collection promises high volume and max versatility – making it extremely easy to unpack even in a tiny hotel room. But if you’re always travelling to cold winter countries or warm deserts, we’d recommend investing in the Vita collection. This one comes built with a sturdy shell that resists impact in heat and cold. Talk about durability!

4. July
Hailing from Melbourne, July spotlights durability, functionality and elegant design. The luggage comes in three sizes – Carry On (46 litres), Checked (80 litres) and Checked Plus (110 litres), clad in a choice of six super chic colours such as navy, charcoal, burgundy and sand. This sturdy luggage is made with an aerospace-grade German polycarbonate shell, scratch-proof texture and even custom-construct aluminium corner bumpers so you don’t have to squirm every time your luggage gets thrown around. Forgot your portable charger? The Carry On collection features an ejectable battery (don’t worry, it’s airline-approved!) with USB and USB-C ports so you can charge your device on the go. Toggle up to 20 height options with the telescopic handles. Oh, and it also comes with a smell-proof laundry bag.

These folks blend fashion and function seamlessly, with backpacks, briefs, messengers, shoulder bags and utility bags in the selection. They’re made from durable materials such as nylon, so don’t worry about not finding a suitable one for your travel purposes.

Perfect for light packing and short trips!

All suitcases have a quiet caster that reduces the rolling sound, a TSA dial lock, and four swivelling casters for easy manoeuvrability.
