If you're a frequent business traveler, are planning a destination wedding, or just need to get a formal ensemble from point A to point B, a garment bag is a must. Though disheveled clothes with huge creases are sometimes inevitable byproducts of packing a suitcase, this clever carrier will help prevent wrinkles wherever you go.
Ironing takes up valuable time — which you might not have to spare with a packed itinerary — and not all hotels have steamers . Whether you're transporting a three-piece suit, a floor-length gown, or just an outfit you need to put on as soon as you deboard the plane, a garment bag is the solution. When browsing options, think about the size and length you need, if you want it to fold up, and what storage features you might use.
To help you find the right one for your needs, we tried 22 garment bags in our testing lab. After packing them up, we evaluated each one for ease of use, capacity, performance, quality, and overall value, and we continued to test them in the real world for another six months to see how the fared during plane rides and road trips.
Best Overall
Mark & graham commuter 2-in-1 garment bag.
It has lots of organizational features and folds up compactly enough to qualify as a carry-on.
After six months of use, we noticed the zippers are prone to snagging.
The best duffel-style option we tested is the Commuter 2-in-1 Garment Bag from Mark & Graham — a brand known for high-quality materials and products designed with superior organizational features. It unfolds to reveal a hanger for your garments, plus various pouches and pockets, including compartments for two pairs of shoes. We were impressed by how much fit inside — a men's suit, dress pants, a button-down shirt, two dresses, a belt, a pair of loafers , a pair of stiletto heels, a water bottle, and a smartphone. We appreciate the generous capacity and the fabric's durability as, even after six months of use, it still looks good as new.
This lightweight garment bag is a piece of cake to carry, even when it's full of clothes and shoes. The twill-washed nylon exterior seems sturdy and resistant to tearing. It passed our water-resistance test with flying colors, too, so you can bet it'll protect your clothing from moisture damage.
When folded up into the duffel configuration, the Commuter Garment Bag is nice and compact. It also easily fits within the carry-on size restrictions for most airlines, and we think the high-quality design is worth the investment.
The Details: 22 x 10 x 10 inches | Twill-washed nylon | Water-resistant

Best Sleeve
Monos garment sleeve.
This slim yet spacious sleeve has room for multiple dresses or suits and can be placed in a larger suitcase or carried by hand.
We wish the pocket was longer so it could fit different shoe styles.
The Monos Garment Sleeve also fared well during our tests. Once folded, it's much flatter than most other garment bags, so you can easily fit it into a larger suitcase or tote it around by hand. Despite how slim it is, the inside is very spacious with room for multiple dresses or suits. We were even able to fit a pair of flats in the zippered pocket, though we wish it was slightly longer to accommodate other shoe styles and sizes.
The materials felt durable yet soft, and the zippers appeared sturdy, giving us peace of mind that our garments would be protected en route. All things considered, we think the price is fair and would recommend this garment bag for short getaways, destination weddings, and any other trip that calls for formal attire.
The Details: 18.4 x 12.2 x 1.2 inches | 1.3 pounds | Nylon

Best Two-wheeled Carry-on
Travelpro platinum elite 50-inch check-in rolling garment bag.
This high-end, smooth-rolling bag fits 15 hung items, plus multiple pairs of shoes and various accessories.
You may want to invest in shoe bags when packing those inside this case as there’s no designated separate section.
Our favorite carry-on with two wheels is the Travelpro Platinum Elite Rolling Garment Bag. This carrier effortlessly fit everything on our packing list and then some: two suits, dress pants, a button-down top, two dresses, a belt, a pair of loafers, dress shoes, stilettos, a laptop, a water bottle, and a lunch box. It fit roughly 15 items on the built-in hanger and secured them in place when we zipped everything up. There are also mesh compartments on the corners and various zippered pockets for stashing accessories and other small items, plus a TSA-approved lock if you plan on checking the bag.
The Platinum Elite Rolling Garment Bag was a breeze to roll around on carpet, hard floors, and concrete — and it's not too heavy to lift, even when packed full. Throughout our six-month test, we used this bag a handful of times including on a trip to London and we found that it's even easy to roll alongside larger, checked luggage. It also passed our durability assessments, showing no signs of wear and tear after using it on a trip and dragging a stiletto heel across the exterior. This garment bag is more expensive than most, but the high-quality design, spacious capacity, and organizational features still stand out.
The Details: 22 x 15.5 x 9.5 inches | 9.9 pounds | Ballistic nylon | Water-resistant

Best Four-wheeled Carry-on
Briggs & riley baseline carry-on wheeled garment spinner.
The four spinner wheels and telescoping handle make this bag a breeze to maneuver, and despite how spacious it is, it fits effortlessly into an overhead bin.
It's on the heavier side for both a carry-on and a garment bag.
You can use this garment bag in place of a traditional carry-on suitcase if you’re flying with dressy clothing. It fits into an overhead bin and has four spinner wheels that live up to their shock-absorbing claims. The wide design sits pretty low to the ground, but the telescoping handle makes it easy to maneuver. And while it's on the heavier side compared to other carry-ons and garment bags we’ve tested, it feels weightless when pushing and pulling it around.
We found the capacity unexpectedly large, with a massive main compartment (for a carry-on, that is), along with corner pouches, zippered pockets, and a designated shoe section. There's even a tech pocket where you can place a power bank for one-the-go charging. We also found this bag exceptionally sturdy — the ballistic nylon exterior resists damage and seems like it'll hold up for many years.
The Details: 21 x 16 x 9 inches | 11.9 pounds | Ballistic nylon

Best for Destination Weddings
Halfday travel the garment duffel.
Fitting multiple suits and a long dress, plus two pairs of shoes, it's ideal for singles or couples heading to a destination wedding.
The zippers aren't made to attach to a security lock.
Heading to a destination wedding? We highly recommend packing your formal wear in the Halfday Garment Duffel. It's good for couples traveling together and can hold two suits, a cocktail dress, a travel steamer , and two pairs of shoes, thanks to the dual footwear compartments. We’ve traveled with this bag on about seven different occasions, including four destination weddings in Austin, Montreal, Mexico City, and Block Island.
This duffel unfolds into the traditional long, flat shape of a garment bag, making it easy to pack. Weighing just over two pounds when empty, we found it comfortable to carry over one shoulder with the padded strap or by the grab handles. You can also slide the trolley sleeve over a suitcase handle to consolidate your luggage. One thing to note is that the zippers aren't meant to hold a security lock, so keep that in mind if you plan on checking this bag. After two years of heavy use, the only noticeable wear is that the black paint is starting to chip off the zippers, but we still think the bag is pretty durable overall.
The Details: 22 x 12 x 12 inches | 2.3 pounds | 420D woven polyester, Taslan | Water-resistant
Best for Business
Zegur suit carry on garment bag.
It easily fits a suit, an overcoat, and two pairs of dress shoes, plus accessories, with room to spare.
The exterior material is somewhat rugged, reminiscent of a backpack or outdoor-friendly duffel.
If you go on frequent work trips and need a solution for transporting your suits and other business attire, we recommend the Zegur Suit Garment Bag. We could fit a suit jacket, dress pants, a button-down shirt, and two pairs of dress shoes inside with plenty of room to spare. There are also multiple pockets for stashing a belt, ties, cufflinks, and other accessories. After attaching your hung items, you can fold it up and carry it like a messenger bag or briefcase using the shoulder strap or grab handles, respectively.
Though it's designed like a briefcase, the material has a rugged quality, which is more reminiscent of a backpack or an outdoor-friendly duffel. Still, the quality is very apparent — the zippers work great, and the exterior didn't scratch or scuff during our tests. This garment bag seems like it'll probably last forever, and the brand backs it with a five-year warranty. So the price is absolutely reasonable, if you ask us.
The Details: 23 x 22 x 4 inches | 2.9 pounds | 1800-D polyester | Waterproof

Most Stylish
Mz wallace michael garment bag.
The sophisticated design flaunts a quilted exterior with leather trim, and it seems durable enough to protect the contents and last many years.
It's not ideal for shoes, and there's no shoulder strap.
This sleek, high-end garment bag gives off major designer vibes. We proudly toted it around while traveling and felt totally sophisticated. Aesthetics aside, it's incredibly functional, too. We were able to fit a full suit, two dress shirts, a belt, and a few ties in the main sections. It would be nice if there was an additional shoe compartment, but the side pocket holds smaller accessories like cufflinks and socks.
We loved the quilted exterior and leather trim. Overall, the design seems like it'll last a long time while protecting the contents. Although there's no shoulder strap, it's easy to carry by the grab handle and lightweight enough that it doesn't cause a strain.
The Details: 22 x 39 x 2.9 inches | 1.6 pounds | Oxford fabric, leather

Best for Multiple Garments
Wallybags garment bag.
This sizable bag can fit multiple long dresses, men's suits, overcoats, and costumes, and holds up to 30 pounds of weight.
A longer clamp would allow it to hold even more hangers.
Need something that can hold more than one thing? The WallyBags Deluxe Garment Bag is big enough for long dresses and gowns, suits, tuxedos, overcoats, dress shirts, costumes — you name it — and it can hold up to 30 pounds of weight. We were able to fit all items on our packing list (with room to spare) and secure everything together with the included hanger clamp. A longer clamp would allow you to fit additional hangers, but if you put multiple items on a single hanger, you can fit more inside.
The garment bag is made of polyester and features a water-resistant coating. It seems durable enough to withstand a journey by plane or car and didn't sustain any scratches during our stiletto test either, making this a solid value for the price point.
The Details: 60 x 22 x 3 inches | 5 pounds | Polyester | Water-resistant
Best Budget
Misslo 43-inch gusseted travel garment bag.
This no-nonsense garment bag fits multiple outfits and folds in half for easy carrying.
The cheap material isn't very durable, and it lacks organizational features.
On a budget? Go with the Misslo Gusseted Garment Bag. The straightforward design is easy to pack up quickly with no frills. We were able to fit two dresses, a shirt, pants, a suit jacket, and a belt, and the transparent window makes it easy to see what's inside. Beyond the main compartment and hanger slot, it doesn't have much in terms of organizational features. More pockets would be useful, but for under $15, we really can't complain.
You can fold it in half to carry it with the attached handles. Though the straps appear pretty sturdy, this bag is made of a non-woven fabric that may not stand the test of time. That said, if you need something for several trips and aren't too worried about durability, you won't be disappointed.
The Details: 43 x 22.5 x 3.5 inches | Non-woven fabric
Most Durable
Degeler garment bag.
This resilient bag resists tearing and repels water while protecting the clothes inside, and the main compartment is easy to load up with hangers.
There's no designated shoe compartment, but the mesh pocket works for shoes.
Degeler's SkyHanger Garment Bag really stood out in terms of durability. The ripstop nylon exterior is lightweight yet extremely tough; it didn't tear or even scratch when we ran a stiletto heel across the surface. What's more, the water-resistant material didn't feel damp at all when we repeatedly sprayed it with water. This bag could probably get run over by a car without sustaining any damage — and any clothing inside would be protected, too.
We like how the main compartment opens wide, making it easy to load with hangers. It effortlessly fits several items, and the upper button latch prevents the hangers from falling into the bag. While there's no designated shoe compartment, the interior mesh pocket works well for footwear. We also appreciate that this garment bag is compact enough to fit within a larger suitcase, or you can take it on its own as a carry-on or checked bag. Comfy leather handles are the final cherry on top.
The Details: 21 x 21 x 1 inches | 1.1 pounds | Ripstop nylon | Water-repellent
Best Waterproof
Seyfocnia convertible carry-on travel garment bag.
It has a water-repellent exterior and a spacious capacity with a shoe compartment and various pockets.
The faux leather exterior isn't scratch-resistant, and there's no designated laptop sleeve.
A waterproof carrier will help ensure your nice clothes don't get wet or wrinkled en route. We like this one, which has a faux leather exterior with a special fiber coating that repels liquids. This duffel-style garment bag has a generous capacity and closes easily, even when packed full. Besides multiple formal ensembles, we fit a pair of heels, a laptop, a water bottle, and a toiletry bag. We like that there are lots of useful pockets and a shoe compartment, but a designated laptop sleeve would be nice.
This bag is lightweight but doesn't feel cheap at all, and it's comfy to carry, thanks to the padded straps. You can also slide it over your suitcase handle with the trolley strap. The faux leather did sustain a scratch when we dragged a stiletto heel across the surface, though the material didn't rip. Considering the reliable, protective design and organizational features, the price range is more than reasonable, even for occasional use.
The Details: 22 x 12.5 x 12 inches | 4.4 pounds | Fiber-coated faux leather | Waterproof
Other Garment Bags We Liked
Here are some other honorable mentions that we tested. While we didn't love them enough to place them on our main list, they still may work great for some travelers.
Away The Centerfold Garment Sleeve : Available in three sizes, this garment bag is lightweight without sacrificing durability. We wish it had more pockets and organizational features but were all-around impressed with the design.
Travel Select Amsterdam Business Rolling Garment Bag : This rolling garment bag has a huge capacity, with space for several hung items and multiple pairs of shoes. Ultimately, we preferred the wheels options on our main list, though they are pricier, while this one is a more affordable carry-on.
WallyBags Solutions Rolling Garment Bag : We found this bag generally sturdy and of good quality. The grab handles, narrower shape, and telescoping handle make it easy to lift overhead and pull on the in-line wheels. But it can be hard to zip up once packed and folded, and it'll most likely need to be checked if traveling by plane.
The Travel + Leisure team researched today's best garment bags and selected 28 to try firsthand in our testing lab and in real-life settings over a six-month period. After inspecting each bag and examining the features, we packed them with various clothing items (suits, dresses, coats, etc.), plus shoes and accessories if there was room.
Once closed, we carried them around, lifted them overhead, and rolled the ones with wheels. We also assessed whether they worked best as carry-ons, personal items, or checked baggage. Additionally, we ran a stiletto heel over the exteriors to check for scratch and puncture resistance, then sprayed the bags with water to see if they repelled moisture. We took notes on each garment bag, paying special attention to ease of use, capacity, quality, performance, and value.

Tips for buying garment bags, pay attention to length.
When buying a garment bag, pay attention to the unfolded length. This will tell you what types of items you can hang inside, like suits, dresses, and coats. Some are too short for longer dresses, in which case you can try folding the dress at the waist. Otherwise, have a plan to iron or steam items upon arrival.
Think about foldability
Many garment bags are meant to fold up and be carried around as a duffel or messenger-style bag. Keep this in mind, as folding can crease the items inside. Folding will also double or triple the thickness of the bag, which might make it harder to zip when packed with several articles of clothing.
Consider storage features
In addition to a main compartment with a hook for hangers, garment bags often have other storage features. This might include zippered pockets, a designated shoe compartment, a mesh pouch, a laptop sleeve, or a water bottle holder. These aren't absolutely necessary, but they can certainly come in handy if you use your garment bag as a carry-on.
Look for easy-carrying options
Lastly, look for a garment bag that's easy to get from point A to point B. For instance, some fold up into a duffel or messenger bag with grab handles or a detachable shoulder strap. Others have trolley sleeves meant to slide over a suitcase handle to consolidate your luggage. And some garment carriers are wheeled, so you can roll them around with minimal elbow grease.
Frequently Asked Questions
Place your clothing items on hangers, then attach them to the upper hook or loop. Some garment bags are spacious but can't fit as many hangers, in which case you might want to put multiple items on one hanger. For extra protection from potential damage, cover each piece with a dry-cleaning bag. If there's a shoe compartment or other pockets, fill those after hanging your garments in the main compartment.
Bifold garment bags fold in half, and trifold garment bags fold into thirds. Aside from the number of potential creases in your clothes, there isn't much difference between the two. What matters more is the size and shape of the folded bag and whether it has straps, handles, or other features for carrying it around.
In most cases, a garment bag can count as a carry-on . The size limit is usually roughly 22 x 14 x 9 inches — if it's small enough, it can even qualify as a personal item . Some airlines allow you to hang your garment bag when you board in a designated closet located in the front of the plane. That said, all airlines are different, so be sure to check the specific rules and requirements ahead of time.

Garment bags can take many forms, from shoulder-strapped to rolling to flat inserts — but regardless of the style, there's a few different reasons you might opt for a garment bag instead of a suitcase. They're ideal for keeping suits well-pressed and wrinkle-free in transit, and great for business trips where you might not need (or want) a full suitcase just for a couple days. And with all of the drama that comes with checked luggage getting lost, you might want one for special occasion dresses — like a wedding dress, a bridesmaid dress or a special uniform — so you can keep them near you instead of checking them.

Best Garment Bag for Long Garments
Your bags travel garment bag.
After shopping our top garment bags for your trip, keep reading to learn more about what we look for in a top-performing garment bag as well as a buying guide from our fiber science and travel experts.
If you're checking a larger bag, a garment bag that fits inside of your suitcase instead of a carry-on is an option if you already have something you'd like to bring on the plane. The Centerfold Garment Sleeve from Away is designed to fit into their Bigger Carry-On, but it would be a great addition to any suitcase. It clips inside of luggage and has tiered loops to accommodate multiple hangers . It can also be carried if you prefer to not fold it up. When you reach your destination, unzip the bottom to allow your garment to fully hang instead of staying bunched up at the base. There's only two zippered pockets for accessories or other small items. The nylon is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof.
About the size of a briefcase, this compact garment bag has a strap across the back of the bag that you can slide over your suitcase handle so there's less for you to hold as you make your way around the airport. If you do choose to carry it, there's an adjustable shoulder strap as well. There's a front organizing pocket for easy access to smaller electronics like a phone and a tablet, making it a convenient carry-on bag . Unfolded, this water-resistant bag hangs at 47 inches, so it's too short for full-length dresses, but it's a great size for jackets, short dresses and dress shirts. The panel that flips out is also full of pockets for stashing jewelry, accessories, shoes and ties.
Long or voluminous formal dresses can be a real pain to travel with because they're so big and cumbersome. Not to mention, if you're traveling to an important event with a wedding or bridesmaid dress, you do not want to keep it in checked luggage, lest you be stuck in an airport — sans dress — at the customer service counter trying to track down your suitcase. For full-length dresses, you need a long garment bag to fit the entire garment without it bunching up and wrinkling at the bottom of the bag. This 72-inch-long garment bag has a 10-inch gusset so it can expand to accommodate styles with a particularly puffy lower half (like dresses designed with layers of tulle, crinoline or a train). Available in five different colors and patterns, the water-resistant polyethylene material will protect clothing from damage. Keep in mind that it is a pretty bare-bones garment bag, so there are no extra pockets or other bells and whistles like the other bags on our list.
Calpak Compakt Large Garment Bag
![Compakt Large Garment Bag Compakt Large Garment Bag](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1681840788-LARGE-GARMENT-BAG-MAUVE-1.jpg?crop=1.00xw:0.751xh;0,0.249xh&resize=980:*)
Calpak finds a nice balance between functionality and fashion with unique styles that are well-made with plenty of features. The Compakt Large Garment Bag can either be carried on its own or it can be placed inside luggage and unpacked upon arrival. Made of water-resistant ripstop nylon, it's 48 inches long when unfolded, so it's a great size for short dresses , and there are seven pockets that fit two pairs of shoes and other accessories. Long dresses will hang out the bottom of the bag, but once the bag is folded up it will cover the hem. The Calpak garment bag comes six fashionable colors and prints that are mostly the same across their product line, so you can coordinate your luggage and bags to match, too.
Hartmann Tweed Legend Voyager Spinner Garment Bag
![Tweed Legend Voyager Spinner Garment Bag Tweed Legend Voyager Spinner Garment Bag](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1681755541-PROD_COL_105166_4652_FRONT.jpg?crop=1xw:1.00xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Hartmann is definitely on the expensive side, but their classic nylon tweed fabric never goes out of style, plus it's treated to be water- and stain-resistant. But what's really great is the Tweed Legend Voyager Spinner has four spinning wheels so you get the ease of a spinner suitcase with the function of a garment bag to make whizzing through the airport terminal a breeze. There are plenty of compartments to keep organized, along with two triangle-shaped pockets to utilize the space by the shoulders of the garments. Hartmann is a top performer in our tests and it even landed as "best for frequent fliers" in our best luggage brands of 2023 . While we haven't tested this specific garment bag, we love their spacious interiors that are easy to pack and wheels that are smooth and comfortable to maneuver.
Amazon Basics Carry-On Garment Bag
![Carry-On Garment Bag Carry-On Garment Bag](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1681755655-41gFBy-QjS._SL500_.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
If you're looking for a no-frills, grab-and-go garment bag, this water-resistant Amazon Basics one is a great option. It comes with a shoulder strap for comfortable carrying and multiple pockets for shoes, undergarments and other items . There's also a front pocket for additional storage and a strap along the back for hooking on your luggage handle. In our testing, we've found the luggage from Amazon Basics to be easy to pack. While it might not be the best quality out there, you can't beat their price.
Briggs & Riley 22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag
![22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag 22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag](https://hips.hearstapps.com/vader-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/1681756206-BLU122CXSP-5f_1_5000x.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Most wheeled garment bags unfold from the top or bottom, so you end up with luggage that's wider than it is tall, which can get weird when trying to shove in an overhead bin (especially for airlines that are strangely particular about how you put bags up there). Briggs & Riley's 22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag folds out from the side, so it's shaped like a regular suitcase — taller than it is wide . There are two sections, one for flat packing and one for hanging garments, with lots of little pockets in the unused space to make maximum use of the bag. While Briggs & Riley bags are pricey, they come with a lifetime guarantee that will cover all repairs if the luggage is broken or damaged. They have authorized repair centers to fix luggage, will repair or replace with the closest matching part and they even have DIY repair kits if you're feeling a little handy.

When you think "garment bag," the first thing that comes to mind probably isn't a compression cube, but this one from Eagle Creek is designed to compress your clothes to take up less space while keeping them looking sharp. The water-resistant polyester case comes with a folding board with printed instructions on how to fold dress shirts and slacks to fit into the bag and how to use it to reduce wrinkles . If you're using a duffle bag or a backpack, packing cubes keep all of your times organized, and with this one, now you can take your fancy threads in the duffle, too.

Are garment bags worth it?
![tk line break](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/2022-listicle-linebreak-1652384208.jpeg?crop=1.00xw:0.463xh;0,0.278xh&resize=980:*)
Garment bags help keep your clothing pressed and wrinkle-free while traveling, so you can just take out and hang clothing once upon arrival. They're ideal for clothing you don't want to fold or roll into a suitcase, like a suit, dress shirts, dresses and skirts. Some are designed to be folded compactly and placed inside a suitcase, while others can be carried as luggage. Most bags will fold in half or thirds, but they are made with padded interior straps to keep clothes from shifting around in transit and prevent creases. Just be sure to lay garments completely flat before folding into a bag to help reduce wrinkles.
Garment bags can make a great carry-on when flying. However, it's important to note the garment bag's dimensions to ensure that it complies with the airline's listed size restrictions. If you're taking a short trip and you'll be bringing nice clothing, you can use a garment bag as a carry-on along with a small duffle as your personal item to save you the trouble of having to check a bag. Plus, anyone who's felt the pain of an airline losing a suitcase knows that when it comes to important items that can't be replaced— special clothing like a uniform, bridesmaid dress or wedding dress, for example — you might just want to go with a garment bag and carry that clothing with you at all times.
What to look for when shopping for garment bags
✔️ Size and shape: Garment bags are available in different lengths, so it's important to consider the linear dimension to ensure the garment bag is long enough to accommodate your clothing. Otherwise, if the garment bag's length is on the short side, the bottom of your garments may have to be folded or bunched at the base of the bag, which will increase the chance of wrinkling. Longer garment bags are great to hold formal dresses, jumpsuits or a full suit. For shorter clothing like tops, jackets and mini dresses, a smaller bag should work just fine.
✔️ Materials: Just like any travel bag, you want a style made of durable materials. If fabric denier is listed in the product description, the higher the denier, the thicker and stronger the fabric is. Nylon is known to be durable and water resistant while polyester is more affordable. Leather is a luxury pick that should last long term, but make sure to follow the care closely. Opt for water-resistant finishes too, especially when traveling with your favorite clothing items.
✔️ Features: To make the garment bag more comfortable to carry around, choose features like a padded shoulder strap, easy access handles and accessible front pockets to hold necessities. If you're considering taking a garment bag instead of a suitcase, make sure it has large enough pockets to hold any other items that you're packing (like shoes, accessories and undergarments).

This sturdy garment bag offers many of the same features as far more expensive bags (built-in pockets and padded interior straps for wrinkle resistance) at a fraction of the cost. Uniquely, it also features a waterproof lining.
A reviewer raves: "This suitcase was the perfect carry-on for packing nice dresses for a trip. With plenty of zippered compartments inside and out and smooth wheels, this bag has quickly become my new favorite carry-on!"

Dimensions: 22.99" L x 4.02" W x 22.01" H

There's even a separate shoe pocket included. According to reviewers, this style is quite durable.
A reviewer raves: "This is a perfect bag for short trips, especially summer trips when clothes aren’t as bulky. You can hang lots of clothing and still have room to put stuff inside like a duffel bag. All the pockets inside are very useful!"

What to look for in a garment bag
![shape shape](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/div-line-1000x150-6668b79ed2e11.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Garment bags come in a few different styles. If you don't have much to hang in transit, a classic zippered bag may do the trick. If you travel a lot and want something a little more versatile, however, a convertible option and/or something with extra storage may be your best bet.
You'll also want your garment bag to be durable. Look for styles made with rugged, water-resistant materials like polyester and nylon, as well as those that have been treated with a waterproofing agent.
How to pack a garment bag
![shape shape](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/div-line-1000x150-6668b52fe7725.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Start by placing your clothes on hangers, then weave the hangers through the loop or hook at the top of the garment bag. Use any available pouches to store smaller accessories like shoes, belt, and even undergarments.
Can you bring your garment bag on the plane?
![shape shape](https://hips.hearstapps.com/hmg-prod/images/div-line-1000x150-6668b703b8ce7.jpg?crop=1xw:1xh;center,top&resize=980:*)
Yes! Most garment bags are sized to fit under an airplane seat or in overhead bins. Simply double check your airline's specific carry-on requirements to ensure your bag will fit.

Garment bags are designed to keep your clothing crease-free and perfectly organized every time you travel.
Whether you’re going away on business, traveling somewhere fancy, or like to always go out in style, invest in one of these useful bags to keep your clothes fresh and wrinkle-free every time.
If you want your clothing to be ship-shape and ready to wear when you reach your destination, the very best way is to invest in a dedicated garment carrier.
A perfect garment bag will bridge the gap between a suitcase and a suit protector by offering useful pockets, compartments, and storage spaces that are designed to hold every bit of clothing safely and securely while you’re in transit.
Garment bags offer many benefits over and above a regular duffel bag or suitcase. With a garment bag, you can:
- Hang your garments upright. Keep your clothes crease-free by hanging them in the car, on the bus, on the train, and in the hotel when you get there. The only place you can’t hang them up is on the plane. But, there’s a solution for that, too — merely lie them flat to keep your clothes wrinkle-free and ready to go.
- Choose from a variety of transport options. You can have a rolling garment bag, a shoulder garment bag, or a garment duffel bag, depending on your needs and carrying preference when in transit. There are lots of different garment bags to choose from. There’s no “one size fits all” solution when it comes to carrying your clothing, as every traveler will have different-sized clothing to accommodate.
- Fit in the overhead . Most garment bags are designed to be used as carry-on luggage and will meet airline regulations when rolled or folded. No checked luggage means faster boarding and no luggage carousels.
Before you rush out a buy a garment bag to keep your gear safe in transit, consider the following:
Size and Capacity
![suit bag travel target Modoker bags](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-bags.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Deciding whether you want to check your garment bag or not will dictate the size of the bag that works best for you. For carry-on bags , the maximum measurements will usually be around 22 x 14 x 9 inches — so be sure to consider that before you buy.
When it comes to capacity, some bags will offer lots of room for added extras like shoes, wash bags, and casual clothing, while others will be designed to keep your suit crease-free and ready for the boardroom.
You may also want to consider the length of the carrier. If you’re packing a ball gown, wedding dress, or another type of fancy outfit, you’ll want to look for one that can fit full-length items without squishing them.
Compartments and Organization
![suit bag travel target Modoker shoe compartment](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-shoe-compartment.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
While your clothes will be kept neatly arranged and hanging nicely, you should also consider what extra storage spaces you’ll need to carry all your belongings.
From basic suit covers, right through to collapsible wardrobe bags, there will be the right type of interior organization for you.
Dedicated spaces for shoes, ties, and underwear, for example, are useful for business travelers, while zippered compartments for smaller items, wet compartments for toiletries, and even external compartments that take the place of your handbag can be useful depending on your individual needs and preferences.
Material and Durability
![suit bag travel target Modoker materials](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-materials.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
As with any luggage, you want a garment bag that will be lightweight enough to carry with you, yet strong enough to not rip or tear at the first sign of travel fatigue. These bags are also designed to fold, so the fabric will need to be flexible, yet strong enough to keep your clothing secure.
Most garment bags are made from the same type of tough nylon or synthetic material that laptop bags and travel duffels are made from, which may even offer some protection against wet weather. Be sure you know exactly what your garment bag can and can’t do before you buy it.
Wheels vs. No Wheels
![suit bag travel target Amazon Basics Luggage Wheels](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Amazon-Basics-Luggage-Wheels.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Wheeled garment bags are easy to pull behind you through the never-ending maze of an airport concourse and are perfect for urban adventures and public transport. They’re not, however, quite so effective on rough terrain, unpaved roads, beaches, or open countryside.
Garment bags without wheels will need to be carried with a hand or shoulder strap, which can be tiresome over long distances. They are, however, usually a little lighter and easier to place in the overhead cabin.
Wheels or no wheels? It’s really up to you as there are pros and cons to both.
![suit bag travel target Modoker garment carrier](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-garment-carrier.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Simply put, there are 3 main types of garment bags to choose from. They include:
- Bi-Fold Bags — This type of garment bag folds in the middle for compact carrying. When they fold up, the bottom will zip, tie, or attach to the top so it can be carried or hung as 1 piece. These types of garment carriers are the most commonly available and come in a variety of designs and materials to suit all budgets.
- Tri-Fold Bags — Tri-fold bags are incredibly lightweight and so compact that they can be attached to the pullout handle of your suitcase. Typically small, this type of garment bag only holds enough to last you for a day or so, but they can be folded for transit and immediately hung up when you reach your destination.
- Rolling Garment Bags — The clue is in the name with these types of bags, as not only do they fold, they also roll! With wheels and a handle, these bags are bigger and heavier than their bi- or tri-fold counterparts but can carry more for longer trips.
Handles and Zippers
![suit bag travel target Modoker handles](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-handles.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Whether you need a long handle to pull your bag behind you, oversized straps for carrying over your shoulder, or a grab handle for quick pick-ups; quality is key.
Sturdy metal handles, leather, or nylon straps, and durable designs are all vital to ensuring your handle stays intact as long as the bag is in use.
The same rules apply to zippers. You need high-quality zippers (and locks) that will keep your garments secure. Small zippers can break easily, so choose a garment bag with big, durable zippers and zipper pulls to keep your belongings safely tucked away.
Your garment bag has been designed to keep your clothing crease-free and perfectly organized in transit. If you aren’t going to pack it correctly, you may as well throw all your gear in a backpack and be done with it.
Follow these top tips for perfect packing, every time:
Pack It Flat
![suit bag travel target Garment Bags](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Garment-Bags.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Lay your garment bag out on a flat surface before you start to fill it. You could use your bed, your floor, or even your kitchen table — where you pack it isn’t important, but how you pack it is.
Work in Reverse
To ensure that your clothing is ready to wear the minute you reach your destination, pack it in the opposite order of how you would dress. For example, if you put your jacket on last, it should be the very first thing you pack. On top of your jacket, you’d pack your shirt, your pants, and so on.
Pack Facing the Back
Creases can happen, and to avoid them wrecking the look of your outfit, pack your clothing facing the back so that any creases only occur on the back of your clothing.
Follow the 1 to 6 Rule
This little rule is useful, and one used by professional packers all over the world. Pack the essentials in the following quantity: 1 hat, 2 pairs of shoes, 3 pairs of pants, 4 shirts, 5 pairs of socks, and 6 pairs of underwear. Scale this up or down to suit the length of your trip.
Tie it Down
If your garment bag has compression straps, use them to keep your clothing in place and laying flat while you travel. Don’t tighten these too much as this might create the creases you’re trying to avoid.
Pack Your Pockets Last
![suit bag travel target Modoker pockets](https://upgradedpoints.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Modoker-pockets.jpg?auto=webp&disable=upscale&width=1200)
Those handy little pockets that are designed to hold ties, shoes, toiletries, and other accessories should be packed last after you have folded or rolled your garments.

Read on to discover the best garment bags based on recent consumer reviews and travel expert insights. All of the recommended bags are considered carry-on compliant, though it's always a good idea to check your airline's carry-on size restrictions before flying.

Best Overall: ZEGUR Suit Carry On Garment Bag
Folded dimensions: 23 x 22 x 4 inches | Weight: 2.86 pounds
What sets it apart: Available on Amazon for less than $70, the ZEGUR Suit Carry On Bag is a well-constructed garment bag at an approachable price. Offered in black and gray, this garment bag features a semirigid structure piping that allows it to secure clothing in place and prevent wrinkled garments, yet it folds in half for easy transport. The bag also offers inner pockets and an exterior zippered pocket that contains various compartments of its own, perfect for accessories like belts, socks and cuff links. Other convenient features include an adjustable, detachable shoulder strap and a trolley sleeve for securing the garment bag to other luggage.
Travelers appreciate: Reviewers consistently rave about this bag's durable design at an affordable price, noting it fits well in the overhead bin on planes.
Price: $64.75 or less
Best Duffel: Halfday The Garment Duffel – Original
![suit bag travel target Halfday The Garment Duffel – Original in cactus color against neutral background.](https://www.usnews.com/object/image/0000018b-de2e-dd03-a1cf-fe2fb6840000/halfday-garment-duffel-cactus-edited-briggs-riley.jpg?update-time=1705952930459&size=responsiveFlow640)
Folded dimensions: 12 x 22 x 12 inches | Weight: 2.3 pounds
What sets it apart: The Garment Duffel by Halfday is increasingly popular for its two-in-one design – so much so that it now comes in a variety of colors and patterns as well as two different sizes: Original and Compact.
The Original size holds suits and dresses plus a few days' worth of clothing, while the Compact bag is slightly smaller and ideal for dresses and shirts. Both bags feature an interior pocket (big enough for one pair of dress shoes), a water-resistant exterior with a pocket for small accessories, and a trolley sleeve.
Travelers appreciate: We recently tested The Garment Duffel and love the overall design and quality. When packing this bag, we highly recommend using packing cubes to maximize storage space and keep additional items organized. This will also make it easier for you to fish out any in-flight essentials (think: an e-reader and headphones) if you don't plan to bring a personal item (such as a backpack ) for those needs.
Price: $98 or less

Best Rolling: Briggs and Riley Baseline 22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag
![suit bag travel target Briggs & Riley Baseline 22" Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag in black](https://www.usnews.com/object/image/00000183-d6ca-d7a9-afd7-f6ebff840000/blu175-4f-briggs-riley.jpg?update-time=1705952874450&size=responsiveFlow640)
Courtesy of Briggs & Riley
Folded dimensions: 22 x 14 x 9 inches | Weight: 9.92 pounds
What sets it apart: Launched in 2022, the newest version of the Briggs & Riley Baseline Carry-On 2-Wheel Garment Bag makes several improvements to the already well-rated luggage, including a beige lining, upgraded shock-absorbing wheels and an overall stronger build. Buyers have the option to monogram the garment bag as well.
The best part about this bag, however, is that it's a rolling carry-on suitcase and a garment bag in one, with separate compartments for a couple of suits, everyday clothing and accessories. These features include the brand's signature PowerPocket for charging your phone on the go as well as an exterior pocket, which offers quick access to security essentials such as your passport wallet and features an orange lining so you see if it is open.
Travelers appreciate: Recent reviewers say this investment piece is surprisingly spacious given its size, and that it has held up well for everything from business travel to international trips.
Price: $659 or less
Best Heavy-Duty: WallyBags 60" Deluxe Travel Garment Bag
Folded dimensions: 30 x 22 x 3 | Weight: 1.9 pounds
What sets it apart: WallyBags specializes in heavy-duty garment bags, with an exclusive WallyLock clamp system that secures up to six hangers in place on all of its bags. Travelers agree the WallyBags 60" Deluxe Travel Garment Bag is a lightweight yet sturdy choice for all forms of travel, noting it's strong enough to fit a wedding dress, tuxedo and shoes for destination weddings . The water-repellent bag is available in five colors and also offers durable handles that can be fastened to each other for easy carrying or attaching to other luggage.
Travelers appreciate: Owners of this bag like that it is lockable and folds easily once a dress or suit is placed inside – though some note a shoulder strap would be a helpful addition to this thoughtfully designed bag.
Price: $59.99 or less
Frequently Asked Questions
A garment bag is designed to prevent formalwear from getting wrinkled in transit. While you'll sometimes receive a complimentary garment bag with the purchase of a suit or gown, it'll typically be one made of thin material that can rip and fall apart very easily. That's why purchasing a quality garment bag for travel is a worthy investment, especially in the following scenarios:
- You regularly travel for business.
- You'd like to pack dressy items for formal nights on a cruise , where clothing irons are prohibited.
- You're attending or hosting a destination wedding.
Yes, most major airlines consider a garment bag to be carry-on luggage as long as it complies with carry-on size restrictions and can fit in the overhead bin.
The best garment bags can accommodate a couple of suits or several outfits. Many garment bags, such as The Garment Duffel by Halfday , feature additional storage space as well. Depending on the length of your trip, a garment bag may be the only luggage you need.
Why Trust U.S. News Travel
Amanda Norcross first discovered the importance of traveling with a quality garment bag after using a clunky old one she borrowed from her mom's closet. For her sister's all-inclusive resort wedding in Jamaica, she upgraded to a carry-on garment duffel bag to ensure her matron of honor dress remained wrinkle-free (and wow, what a difference). Along with these firsthand experiences, she consulted consumer ratings and reviews for dozens of garment bags to choose the best of the best for travel.

The 10 best garment bags and luggage for wrinkle-free travels in 2023.

No one likes a wrinkle in their travel plans — or their travel pants for that matter.
While we can’t help a delayed flight or a weather mishap while on the road or in the sky, what we can do is help you travel in style with your suits and dresses pressed and ready to wear upon arrival.
No need to pack a steamer or iron (although, a travel steamer isn’t a bad idea) when you have a garment bag or a garment bag carry-on that doubles as your luggage.
Like a normal bag that hangs in your closet, these contraptions help keep suit jackets pressed, dresses unwrinkled and the rest of your delicates just the way you packed them — should they be able to be packed flat, that is.
Then, pack the garment bag in your suitcase or simply finish filling the carry-on and off you go, wrinkle-free.
1. Tumi Alpha Garment Bag Tri -Fold Carry-On , $750

On your way to a wedding or a formal function? Pack this bag, as it can hold two suits or long, bulky gowns and still have room for other necessities. The bag unzips from the sides to lay flat, allowing you to pack with ease.
2. Away The Garment Bag , $195

Target’s 'Suitcase In Backpack Form' Travel Bag Is Pure Magic
![suit bag travel target Open Story's 35L travel backpack](https://img.huffingtonpost.com/asset/65eb45372300001d006569e4.png?cache=L6CUcrHZLT&ops=scalefit_720_noupscale)

The dance between airline carriers and their passengers’ luggage has long been a delicate one. There’s nothing like waltzing up to the check-in counter with a bag that you’ve painstakingly packed to be sub-weight-limit only to find out that it’s not — and getting it to your destination will be an extra $75, please and thank you. Or to arrive at the boarding of a budget airline with your “carry-on” to be confronted with that stingy little box with clearly marked measurements that are sure to fall short of what you planned to bring on the plane.
Frequent fliers have therefore become well accustomed to stuffing as much as possible into as few square inches or liters as physics will allow — and when a bag comes along that appears to offer that Mary Poppins-like ability to stash a shocking amount of stuff, it’s worth noting.
Target’s Open Story brand is known for its stylish and genuinely functional travel accessories — we’ve previously written up fan favorites like this suspiciously Away-like hardshell suitcase and the brand’s no-brainer, just-buy-it luggage scale that will save anyone from the aforementioned overweight baggage fees. This generously-sized backpack appears to be the next installment in this march of well-designed essentials, and it has a stunning number of long-winded five-star reviews testifying to its supreme functionality. Overall, it’s earned a 4.7-star reviews across 90 reviews (with 73 of them clocking in at five stars).
The 35-liter capacity bag has a clamshell closure, which opens completely flat, and one exterior zip pocket that opens to reveal a series of slip pockets for small essentials like passports, reading material and the like. The interior reveals two zipper-protected sides that are equipped with every conceivable shape of compartment for keeping clothing, toiletries and more organized with scientific precision, and the rear laptop sleeve holds a machine measuring up to 17 inches. One reviewer below described using packing cubes, but given the bag’s internal structure, we’re not even really sure that’s necessary. The whole shebang can be compressed shut with the help of adjustable exterior closures, and in addition to the padded backpack straps, there’s a side carrying handles and a luggage slip for use with handled rolling luggage.
![suit bag travel target The interior of the Open Story backpack is ludicrously capacious. (Sorry.)](https://img.huffingtonpost.com/asset/65eb51b62300001e006569ed.png?ops=scalefit_720_noupscale)
Not every review is stellar, and some of the poorer reviews offer perspective on the bag’s size, which, at 19.25 inches tall, 13 inches wide and 8 inches deep, is perhaps a hair larger than, say, a traditional banker’s box . For some reviewers, the heft was too much — but this population pales in comparison to the number of customers who happily embraced the bag’s girth and stuffed it full of everything they’d need for trips up to three weeks long (in the instance of the reviewer below who brought it on a solo trip to Italy).
Enough from me, though — take a look at what some of the most informative reviews had to say (it was hard to narrow down) or just scroll all the way to get this magical bag in time for your next trip.
“ Took this as my sole bag for two weeks in Europe and it held out amazing. Fits neatly under the seat in front of me in my flight and holds a ridiculous amount of stuff. Very sturdy zippers and seams. A little uncomfortably on the shoulders when loaded heavy but manageable.” — Lg “ I used this item as a personal item on a Spirit flight. I was a little nervous it would be too big, but I didn’t have any problems! I tried not to overstuff, but of course still did. The straps to condense it smaller definitely helped. I have used it a few times since for weekend trips. All of the different pockets and compartments make it perfect for any small trip.” — Jayme “This worked great for my long flight! I was able to bring some clothes and all my things that I needed for my long flight. The computer pocket and small pocket were great for easy and quick access. I wanted the make of a suitcase in a backpack form and this is it. ” — RebF “ Single Greatest Luggage Purchase. Size is perfect for avoiding carry-on fees for air travel . So many well designed, convenient and supported compartments. Wears like a backpack, stores like a suitcase! Chef’s kiss!” — LFTravels “ I used this for a trip to Europe and it was great! I used compression packing cubes and it held a ton! I love that it still has a protected spot for my laptop and easy-access pockets. It held up really well!” — skb324 “ If you fly Spirit or Frontier then this is definitely a must-buy . I used it for the first time on a Frontier flight last week and just as I expected, I was stopped during the boarding process (along with like 5 other people) because I didn’t pay the extra fee to bring a carry-on bag. Luckily, I was able to squish it down, tighten the straps on the side, and unclip the shoulder straps to make it fit in the little metal bin. At that moment I said to myself “I have to give this thing a 5-star review,” so here I am. Now I’m buying one for my dad and my brother.” — Mia “ I needed a backpack for a 3-week solo trip to Italy and this was amazing. It was so sturdy and held up with all of the travel. It carried so much and the different compartments are super convenient. I love how it opens fully. It was very comfotable to wear and walk around with. I’ve used this bag several times since my trip and it has not disappointed. The ONLY negative thing I can think of is the zipper handles didn’t have a hole thick enough to use miniature locks (for safety while traveling). So we had to use a little creativity to make sure I could “lock” the zippers. That’s literally my only complaint though. I recommend this bag all the time.” — kbskate “Purchased for my bf last minute as he was flying to Vegas for a bachelor party. He didn’t purchase a carry on nor a checked bag and just planned on using a backpack. After packing all of his things I realized it would not fit so I quickly purchased this for pickup! It was awesome! The bag fit everything he needed for 4 days worth of things. He’s also a BIG guy so his things take up a lot of room. All and all it was prefect and spirit airlines had no issues ” — Kat

We just got off Harmony of the Seas and can't thank Haley with Passport & duffle bag travel co enough for all the help and support not to mention patience booking our cruise. We had to rebook due to covid and Haley was extremely patient with us. We had many questions and she helped guide us. We were iffy about getting the travel insurance but we recommend always getting it. It def came in handy for our trip and was well worth the extra money. We highly recommend Passport & Duffle bag for all your traveling needs.

Thank you to Haley for making our very last minute spring break vacation happen! Somehow you managed to find us one of the last rooms in Siesta Key that was a very short walking distance to the #1 Beach in America! We also enjoyed our time in Orlando-mixing it up made for a very fun vacay for our little ones. We will be contacting Passport & Duffel Bag for our next adventure-maybe this time not so last minute.

We had a great trip thanks to this company. We had 11 people with us for a 50th Birthday celebration in Key West, everything was well thought out for our group. They set us up with a with a Sunset Cruise as well as Dinner reservations. They were very helpful in the planning process with recommendations and possible areas to stay in the Keys. Defiantly recommend them for your travel needs.
