Travel Tip: New Luggage That Collapses Easily

biaggiIf you have a lot of luggage or limited storage space, you can probably relate to the pain of trying to put away your suitcases. That’s why collapsible bags are becoming more common in the world of new luggage.

Instead of stuffing cases inside one another or stacking them in a closet, you can fold them and put them away a lot more easily.

Biaggi has an entire line of luggage that flattens into a fraction of the original size—even a 30-inch suitcase with wheels can be condensed.

Lipault makes a line of foldable luggage that compresses to less than half the initial size. The entire line is lightweight, including a carry-on that weighs under 5 pounds.

Duffel bags are probably the simplest types of bags to shrink down, so you can easily find a few manufacturers that make them.

The REI Stuff Travel Duffel can be rolled up to fit into a small pouch, and Eagle Creek makes a large duffel that can be condensed to 50 percent of its original size.
