11 Luggage Buying Tips | How To Buy Quality Travel Bags | Man's Guide To Luggage Purchasing

About this video

Centeno provides 11 tips for purchasing quality luggage, covering considerations such as matching the bag to its intended use, evaluating customer service and company longevity, assessing materials and construction details, and calculating value based on cost-per-use over time. He illustrates his recommendations using examples from JW Hulme, a US-based luggage manufacturer he recommends.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno argues that selecting the right bag for the specific occasion and travel needs is foundational, as oversized or inappropriate bags lead to overpacking and inconvenience
  • Centeno recommends evaluating companies based on customer service quality, business longevity, repair guarantees, and whether they stand behind their products with meaningful warranties
  • Centeno advises examining construction details including stitching (double-stitched at tension points), hardware quality (zippers and buckles), material durability, and weight restrictions to assess long-term value
