Which type of luggage suits your travel adventure?
City break, family holiday, or backpacking trip around the world – the luggage you bring plays a big role in how relaxed your journey feels. But what really matters when choosing the right bag? And which model fits your plans best? Here’s an overview of the most important luggage types and a look at smart hybrid models for more flexibility on the go.
Suitcase, backpack or duffle roller?
Your ideal piece of luggage depends heavily on your destination, how you travel, and how much comfort you want – but also on how easily you want to adapt to typical travel situations:
These are your options
- Excellent protection for delicate items
- Neat interior layout for better organization
- Easy to roll through airports
- Impractical on stairs or uneven terrain
- Very flexible and easy to carry
- Perfect for long walks or nature trips
- Hands stay free while carrying
- No rolling comfort on flat ground
- Combination of trolley comfort and backpack flexibility
- Suitable for various travel scenarios
- Great organization with spacious main compartment and compression straps
Why a duffle roller is a smart choice
Frequent travelers know the challenges of changing conditions: gravel paths to a vacation rental, crowded train stations, or narrow airplane aisles.
This is where models like the Tatonka Duffle Roller 105 and the Tatonka Duffle Roller 140 shine with well-thought-out features:
Two carry options: Use it as a trolley or wear it like a backpack – choose what fits the situation.
Durable, water-repellent fabric: Stands up to rain, dirt, and rough handling. The PFC/PFAS-free coating is better for health and the environment.
Comfort-focused design: Three grab handles, stowable shoulder straps, compression straps, and a wide opening for easy handling and packing – especially useful when things get hectic.
Security: Lockable zippers protect your belongings, even when unattended in a train compartment or hostel.
Compact storage: When not in use, the bag folds down small – handy for return trips with souvenirs or minimalist packing.
