The best suitcases to travel this summer: Samsonite, Eastpak, American Tourister

It seemed that it would never come, but at last we are facing a relative return to normality and a summer with milder restrictions that will allow us to enjoy a vacation in good conditions.

Although it is most likely that we already know where we want to go or that we have everything well tied up, we must not forget to prepare those things that are going to be crucial for when we leave. One of them is, without a doubt, the suitcase, which can be a real nightmare if we do not choose the right one.

So that you can prepare everything you are going to take with you and place it in a spacious, light, practical space with wheels that take the work out of your back, at El Comprador de La Vanguardia we have selected the best-selling cabin-format suitcases, XL, rigid, fabric, with pockets... You will find options from brands such as Samsonite, Eastpak or American Tourister.
