How to choose a travel bag
Consider the size based on the length of your trip: a small bag for one night, a weekend bag for two or three days, a large bag for a week. A removable shoulder strap frees up your hands, an exterior pocket keeps documents and phone safe, and a rigid base protects the contents. A cabin travel bag adheres to the airline's dimensions.
Travel bags, backpacks and suitcases: the full selection
Suitcases better protect fragile items, backpacks keep your hands free, and bags come in all shapes. The travel bag or suitcase: the first fits anywhere.
How to pack a travel bag efficiently
Rolled clothes take up less space and crease less than folded ones; shoes go at the bottom, in a separate bag; the toiletries bag can slide in on the side. Items needed during the journey stay in the exterior pocket: the well-packed bag maintains its shape.
Colours and materials of the travel bag
Black and navy blue age well and hide marks; bright colours can be spotted on a baggage carousel. Nylon is lightweight and can be wiped clean with a sponge, cotton canvas is sturdy, and leather develops a patina. A black travel bag goes with all outfits.
Travel bag for women, travel bag for men and travel tote
The women's travel bag, made of coated canvas or leather, can be carried by hand or over the shoulder for a weekend. The men's travel bag, wider, is chosen with a padded strap and reinforced base. The travel tote, open and lightweight, serves as a carry-on for the journey's essentials.

Frequently asked questions about travel bags
What size bag for a weekend?
An average weekend bag is enough for two outfits, a toiletries bag, and a pair of shoes. For a winter weekend, with thick clothing, a larger bag avoids overstuffing.
Can a travel bag go in the cabin?
Yes, if it meets the size and weight requirements set by the airline, to be checked before departure. A soft bag can be squished more easily in the overhead compartment than a hard suitcase.
How to clean a canvas travel bag?
Empty it, brush off the dust, and then clean stains with soapy water using a sponge. Let it dry open, outdoors: the canvas does not go in the tumble dryer.
Duffel bag or weekend bag: what to choose?
The duffel bag, cylindrical, is worn on the shoulder and fits well in a locker; the weekend bag, more rectangular, opens wider. For sports, the duffel bag is the most practical.
How to prevent clothes from wrinkling when travelling?
Roll t-shirts and sweaters, fold shirts around a sweater, and hang everything up as soon as you arrive. A garment bag protects the shirt of a suit.
