Best Luggage Gift Ideas

When it comes to buying a gift for a loved one, we want everything to be perfect. It should be something they'd like, but can use too. It should look nice, but be practical as well. Nothing short of the best out there will do. At the same time, it shouldn't make too large a hole in our pocket.

No doubt, it's difficult to find that perfect gift. One thing I've found pretty useful and laden with choices is travelware, or luggage, to be more precise. Here are some excellent luggage gift ideas for you to consider for the special people in your life.

Briefcase: This ubiquitous business essential is an excellent Father's Day gift. If you want to replace your old man's retro attaché case, gift him a swanky laptop briefcase in leather or nylon with lots of organizational pockets and watch his face light up with excitement. Next thing you know, you'll be the talk of your dad's office and his colleagues will seek you out to congratulate you on your outstanding taste in briefcases.
Tote Bag: This is an all-time favorite with the ladies and will work perfectly for moms, wives, sisters, aunts, et al. There are so many options to choose from – travel totes, shopping totes, laptop tote bags, business totes, picnic totes, and beach totes to name just a few – that picking one can be quite overwhelming, especially if you're a guy. However, make sure the one you select is good quality while not compromising on looks (otherwise it'll never see the light of the day).

A note of caution here - designer replicas are a strict no-no when it comes to gifting. You don't want to end up looking cheap. So, go for something that suits your pocket, the recipient's taste, and the occasion. For example, if you're gifting it to an expectant mother, then a diaper tote would not only be pertinent, but also extremely practical
Backpack: If you're struggling to find a gift for a graduating child, grandchild, niece, nephew, sibling, or cousin; then laptop computer backpacks are the way to go. Backpacks are extremely utilitarian and something everyone will appreciate. Even within backpacks you can choose from options that are executive in style or casual in appearance. While some backpacks serve the purpose of just work or school bags, others double up as gym or weekend bags.
Duffle: A duffle is a great choice for a friend who shares your passion for the outdoors. Whether it's a landmark birthday or you want to wish him bon voyage as he gets set for the biggest adventure of his life, gifting him a duffle will be an ode to the bond you share. As for choices – there are plenty from wheeled duffles to convertible ones that magically transform into backpacks.
Laptop Sleeve: So you don't have the money to gift your girlfriend a new laptop? Just jazz up her existing one with a stylish laptop sleeve. Pick up the snazzy, colorful ones or the classic, understated variety and add a note of love to sweep her off her feet!

What are some popular wallet & suitcase brands?

For a guy in his early twenties? I'm looking for brands that are a bit more "youthful" and hip I guess.

And for the suitcases, nothing that's too sporty or too casual like a tote or duffle bag, but a bit more formal. Nothing for far distance traveling, but more so carry on that's good enough to last you the weekend.

Thank you for your help!

GUCCI and Louis Vuitton bags are at the top of the ladder right now
