Whether you are packing for a long trip or a flight Off-grid adventure Requiring a large number of equipment, every traveler should have large rolling bags and soft-sided bags in their luggage quiver. Choosing the right option can be as pivotal as choosing your travel companions – and in some cases, that decision may last longer than another.
While it’s cool to watch the simple traveler get on the plane carrying nothing but a handbag with their personal items, if you’re going Backcountry Ski To a remote area or go in mountain biking stage race Across Africa, you’ll need a larger bag. Some of these destinations also require soft luggage, not a hard suitcase.
If your adventure requires a trip to the airline’s office, make sure it’s a task to carry all your gear and keep it safe and secure. Here, I like the big, rolling, and soft-sided bags.
The Best Luggage & Soft Sided Travel Bags for Every Adventure
1. Patagonia Black Hole 70L Duffel Bag
As the name suggests, the storage in this wheeled duffel is cavernous. With the body, lining and belt made from 100 percent recycled polyester, this gearbox is as practical as it is environmentally friendly. And while we’ve included a 70L model, the same bag is available in a smaller version (40L) as well as the larger 100L bag for when you just need to carry more stuff.

2. Briggs & Riley Beesline Expandable Spinner Extra Large
This luxury bag comes at an excellent price. But as the saying goes, “You get what you pay for.” This extra-large, expandable spinner bag comes with one-touch expansion capabilities, a built-in 3-fold garment coil to neatly hold up to two suits while preventing wrinkles, and a contrast color interior lining to speed identification of interior contents. If that’s not enough, the brand is calling for an unconditional lifetime warranty.
