These suitcases are durable and functional, making them ideal for outdoor activities (camping, hiking, adventure travel, etc.). Unlike regular travel suitcases, they have features that allow them to withstand natural environments and active travel.
It is important to use durable materials that will not break even in harsh environments such as rocky areas or muddy roads. Waterproofing and highly airtight zippers will protect your belongings from rain and dust, giving you peace of mind.

Frequently asked questions about suitcases recommended for outdoor activities
1.Is it really waterproof? How long can it last in the rain?
Most suitcases for outdoor use are basically "water-resistant," but there are few that are completely waterproof.
Heavy rain or prolonged immersion in water can cause seepage, so it's wise to pack your valuables in an additional waterproof pack.
2. How much luggage can it hold? Will it fit all my camping gear?
Capacity varies depending on the model, but for example, the 95L "New Trip0201Plus" can hold a two-person tent, sleeping bag, compact cooking equipment, and several days' worth of clothes.
However, bulky items such as mats and large chairs should be carried separately or stored in the car.
Internal dividers and compression straps help you organize your gear and maximize capacity.
3. How heavy is it? Is it difficult to carry around?
Suitcases for outdoor use tend to be a little heavier as they are designed to be durable.
For example, the New Trip0201Plus (60L) weighs approximately 4.2 kg, while the New Trip0301 (95L) weighs approximately 4.7 kg. If you're looking for a lightweight model, aim for something in the 3 kg range.
However, if the wheels and handles are sturdy, you can roll it around, so it won't be too much of a burden as long as you don't have to lift it often.
4.Can it be used for normal travel?
Yes, most outdoor suitcases are also suitable for everyday travel. Models like the New Trip0201 (40L) have a sophisticated design that makes them suitable for use in airports and around town.
However, if you are concerned about bulky wheels or a rugged look, it may be better to choose a simple design that is more versatile.
5. Are there any parts that break easily? Are they easy to repair?
The weak spots are often the wheels and zippers.
When used off-road, stones can get stuck in the wheels, and excessive loads can cause the axles to bend. Zippers can also become clogged with dust and mud. Brand-name products (such as Samsonite and Rimowa) have easy-to-find replacement parts, and repairs can also be performed at official stores.
However, it may be difficult to procure parts for minor brands, so it is recommended that you check their repair services before purchasing.
