With summer is in full swing, it’s a great time to refresh well-worn travel gear that has seen better days. Travelers with rugged summer adventures on the books are especially in for a treat: Fan-favorite French luggage brand Delsey Paris just released a stylish and durable new collection with iconic American SUV brand Jeep. The 13-piece assortment includes a range of sustainable and water-resistant backpacks, hardside suitcases and duffels.
Many bags in the collection, such as the Tote Backpack and Expandable Carry-On Spinner, pay homage to Jeep vehicles with the emblematic star and the seven grooves, and much like a Jeep itself, each of the pieces can withstand almost any terrain and climate. Read on to learn more about the buzzy collaboration as well as our favorite pieces.
Shop The New Collection
A Spacious Rolling Duffle
Small Rolling Duffle Bag
This carry-on-friendly duffle is crafted from recycled, ripstop polyester and has two wheels on the bottom that seamlessly navigate any terrain. Two cushioned carry handles (one on the top and one on the side) make it easy to grab in transit, and the spacious interior can easily fit a week’s worth of clothing and personal items. Two zippered front pockets round out the storage space on this bag.
A Larger Rolling Duffle For Longer Trips
Medium Rolling Duffle
For a larger duffle that’s still carry-on friendly, go with the Medium Rolling Duffle. It’s crafted from the same durable polyester as the smaller size but has 29 extra liters of interior space. We also appreciate the interlocking zippers that are compatible with most combination locks. This provides additional security, especially when camping or traveling internationally.
A Versatile Backpack With A Laptop Compartment
Cylindrical Backpack
Whether commuting or hiking through the wilderness, this sleek, water-resistant backpack is an ideal companion. It has 39 liters of space, which helps pack bulkier items or gear, and an RFID zippered pocket to keep your passport and credit cards safe. Plus, it has a handy laptop sleeve that fits devices up to 17 inches.
A Vibrant Convertible Tote Backpack
Tote Backpack
The Tote Backpack is slightly smaller than the Cylindrical Backpack (it has 32 liters of space, compared to 39 liters), but if you prefer to pack light, you’ll appreciate this pick. The main pocket has a laptop sleeve and multiple carrying options for added versatility are available; there are two adjustable shoulder straps plus tote handles on the top of the bag. Use the large front pocket to stash essential items that you reach for frequently.
A Hardside Carry-On With Durable Wheels
Expandable Carry-On Spinner
Hardside luggage ensures your belongings are safe and secure during travel, so if you’re looking for something sturdy, long-lasting and stylish, this is an excellent choice. Dual-traction wheels help you glide through airports, parking lots and train stations, while the spacious interior has plenty of dividers and pockets to help you stay organized on the go. The Jeep logo and seven grooves are prominently displayed on the front, with four classic colors to choose from.
A Durable Checked Spinner
Large Expandable Spinner Trunk
If you’re going to be traveling for more than a week, opt for something with more space. A great option is the collaboration’s new Large Expandable Spinner Trunk, an expandable hardside suitcase that measures 14.5 x 16.25 x 31.5 inches (this includes handles and wheels). It’s smartly outfitted with four carry handles, a TSA-approved lock, corner guards, 360-degree spinner wheels and a zippered mesh divider inside.
