Before you buy

Start with suitability, then compare the evidence. These checks are questions to investigate, not promises that every product in this ranking meets them.

  1. Check actual dimensions and empty weight against your carrier's requirements before comparing capacity.
  2. Look for replaceable wheels, zips and handles and check who provides the repair service.
  3. Read shell, lining and coating composition separately; recycled fabric does not establish the footprint of the whole bag.

What the ranking does—and does not—tell you

The ethics score is a comparison of the information recorded in our catalogue, not a customer star rating, safety test or complete lifecycle assessment. Check the individual product's sources, certificate scope and current retailer details before deciding.
