And great travel bags do all that with quality you can count on and the style and swag to match.

From duffels to backpacks to weekender bags, travel bags come in all shapes and sizes — but not all are created equal. We’ve rounded up seven of the most eye-catching travel bags on Amazon this holiday season that are worthy of becoming your new packing go-to. Snap up your favorite, then wrap it up as a gift, treat yourself, or both! We won’t tell.
