Should I choose hard shell or soft shell luggage?

A hard shell surrounds your belongings with a rigid exterior, while soft shell cases usually offer more give and exterior pockets. Many hard shells here still expand: the main compartment of the Maxlite® Air V2 Cabin Hard Shell Spinner expands 5 cm, and the Pathways™ 3.0 check-in spinners expand 5.1 cm. Our hard shell vs soft shell guide compares the two.
