Upgrading your polycarbonate or softsided luggage to aluminum might seem like an unnecessary indulgence. But investing in one of these sleek, durable and stylish suitcases will keep your cargo well protected in the long haul.

Here are our top aluminum luggage picks in 2022, based on user reviews.


Top products in this article:

High-end aluminum suitcase: Rimowa Classic Cabin S, $1,400

Great value aluminum luggage: Away The Aluminum large check in, $745

Best on a budget aluminum luggage: Level8 Gibraltar aluminum carry-on, $383 (reduced from $400)


Why invest in aluminum luggage? In addition to the sleek and luxurious look of metal, aluminum is less likely to crack compared to polycarbonate, making it a more long-term option.

The biggest downside? Aluminum luggage often weighs more than plastic or fabric suitcases. Carry-on suitcases generally weigh in the 10-pound range, while check-in bags may get up to 16 pounds. 

In terms of price, expect to pay more for aluminum, as the cost of materials and production is higher. Keep in mind that brands like Rimowa offer complimentary maintenance and warranty specific parts that might break over the years. 

We rounded up some of the best check-in and carry-on luggage from brands like Rimowa, Away, Tumi, Zero Halliburton and Level8. Check out the top rated picks below, perfect for your next flight or road trip.
