Samsonite Proxis Carry-On Spinner.
Samsonite's premium hardshell with Roxkin shell technology — bounces back from impacts that crack lesser polycarbonate.

The Verdict.
Gavler Meta-Score
“The Proxis is the carry-on for travelers who want proven mainstream reliability with premium materials. The Roxkin shell genuinely outperforms standard polycarbonate on durability, the weight is competitive, and the feature set is complete. At $500 MSRP it's premium-priced but frequently discounted to $300-350. Not as aspirational as Rimowa or as bulletproof as Briggs & Riley, but it threads the needle between them with technology neither offers.”
