An Unofficial Paravel Luggage Sale Is Happening This Memorial Day Weekend
The beginning of summer is a great time to stock up on new luggage for upcoming travel; with plenty of Memorial Day sales going on this weekend, there's no shortage of savings to take advantage of. Some deals, however, may not be on your radar: After luggage brand Paravel shut down its website this week—causing many to speculate that the company has filed for bankruptcy—several of its chic styles can now be found on third-party retailers at up to 40% off their usual price. Several Paravel luggage pieces can now be found on third-party retailers at up to 40% off their ... More usual price. A top pick in our wider guide to the best luggage, I've personally traveled with Paravel luggage on numerous trips and appreciate the smooth wheels, comfortable handle grip and retro design found in it suitcases. I also swear by its accessories, like the Cabana Tote, for weekend trips. Following the brand's unexpected site shutdown, the last of the popular luggage styles can still be found at retailers like Net-A-Porter and Ssense. If you're looking to upgrade your luggage, shop these deals now before they're truly gone for good. Net-A-Porter This stylish carry-on suitcase is made from recycled post-consumer plastic bottles and aluminum for a sleek (and sustainable) exterior. Its extremely smooth wheels make for an easy roll to your gate, and the suitcase has a comfortable vegan leather wrap on its handle that provides a comfortable grip, no matter how heavy you pack it. I've personally traveled with this bag multiple times, and it's become one of my favorites. I've recommended it to several of my friends who have all raved about its great color options (we've found multiple colors on sale) and spacious packing capacity. If this is the last opportunity you have to snag a suitcase for yourself, I highly recommend doing so. Net-A-Porter If you need a bit more packing space, the brand's Aviator Carry-On More offers enough packing space for up to a week. This is a sturdy and stylish suitcase that easily fits into most overhead bins. At $285, it's a great deal on a long-lasting piece of luggage that offers ease and peace of mind. Net-A-Porter Another bag that's been a staple of my travel set-up, the Paravel Cabana Tote is incredibly lightweight thanks to its cotton canvas fabric, and offers enough structure and size to fit all of your essentials. It also includes interior slip and zippered pockets as well as a hook-and-eye top closure to keep things from toppling out. Net-A-Porter For easy organization, this see-all cosmetics case is one of my favorites. Its clear material lets you see everything inside, meaning you'll never have to dig for a hard-to-find lipstick. Aside from having enough space to store brushes, powders, creams and more, the case is also built with silicone, stain-repellant coating that lets you breathe easy should anything leak. Net-A-Porter A sleek and modern duffle bag made of sustainable EcoCraft twill that is both durable and incredibly soft, the Paravel Rove Duffle Bag is spacious enough to fit three to four days of clothes, a pair of shoes and a toiletry bag. It offers a sleek and sophisticated look that wouldn't feel out of place on a business trip, but is still casually dressy enough to bring to dinner after a hard workout at the gym. Ssense Named one of our favorite weekender bags, the Paravel Grand Tour Duffle is durable, elegant and offers ample packing space. Commerce editor Katherine Louie owns this bag and calls it 'a great option for weekend trips, as it holds the perfect amount of clothing, shoes and personal items.' At under $250, it's worth snapping up if you have a summer weekend trip in the works.

Paravel's website is shut down — 5 pieces of luggage to shop instead
This just in: Popular luggage brand Paravel has shut down its website, and customers are taking to Reddit to report that their not-yet-shipped orders have been cancelled. There are even reports that the company has filed for bankruptcy. We've covered the brand in the past, including in our story on the best luggage sets. The brand, which is known for its retro style trunks and weekenders, is currently still available on select third-party retailers — including Amazon and Bloomingdale's — but it is hard to say how long stock will last or if those items will even ship. If you're looking for luggage for an upcoming trip and were considering Paravel, we've gathered alternatives below. All of these recommendations have either been recommended by experts or NBC Select editors in previous reporting or have high ratings from hundreds of reviews. If you liked Paravel's trunk, consider this option from Away. It has a lightweight polycarbonate shell and a patented compression system inside that allows you to pack enough for a three-week trip, according to the brand. The trunk is also 20% off on the brand's website through Memorial Day. Also nice: Away just started selling their most popular suitcases, including The Trunk, on Amazon. One of our favorite weekender bags, this option is similar in style to Paravel's popular canvas bags. NBC Select reporter Zoe Malin loves that it has a separate, zippered shoe compartment she can keep the dirty soles of her running sneakers away from her clothing. It also has several inner pockets to organize your stuff, top handles and a removable shoulder strap. One of our NBC Select Travel Award winners, our testers liked how easy this bag was to maneuver. It has a polycarbonate shell and inner compression panels for maximum packing room. It also has multifunctional spinner wheels, a TSA-approved lock and a laundry bag included for dirty clothes when you travel. Another Travel Award winner, Dagne Dover's Dakota Backpack, is great as a personal item on a flight or for commuting to work. Rebecca Rodriguez, NBC Select editorial projects manager, finds the neoprene material super easy to clean with warm water and soap. The backpack also has padded straps for comfort, a zippered front pocket and an interior laptop sleeve. As the daughter of a pilot, I've been traveling my entire life, which means I've been through my fair share of luggage. This duffel has been a game changer for me. I've used it on weekend trips or as my personal item on a plane, along with my spinner suitcase. The top handles are long enough to throw over your shoulder, but it also comes with a detachable crossbody strap. The main compartment is super roomy and there is a separate compartment for shoes. I also love that the exterior is made from an easy-to-wipe-down nylon. I recently travelled with my 4-year-old and 4-month-old, and this bag fit diapers, tons of snacks, coloring books, bottles and a change of clothes for all of us. Why trust NBC Select? I'm a writer at NBC Select who covers various topics, including home, tech and beauty. I have been covering major shopping events like Amazon Prime Day, Black Friday and Cyber Monday for over a decade.
