5 Designer Duffle Bags Fashion People Always Take to the Airport

Investment pieces take on many forms, but in my opinion, they should all have one thing in common: a quality that will make you return to them again and again. That can look different in everyone's wardrobe depending on whether you gravitate toward shoes, bags, or sunglasses. Right now, the next investment piece I'm interested in adding to my wardrobe is a great designer duffle bag that I can use for future travels—the ultimate piece to use as a carry-on or weekend tote.

Looking at celebrities and fashion insiders, there are specific bags that are winning out for the airport. Designers such as Louis Vuitton and Gucci have iconic monogram styles, and brands such as Bottega Veneta and Métier have pared-back, logoless versions. There is a bag that is sure to work in your wardrobe, regardless of your personal style. Ahead are the five designer duffle bags that are popular with the fashion set.

Longchamp Le Foulonné Duffle Bag

Longchamp has perfected French heritage travel bags, and perhaps no bag exemplifies this more than the Le Foulonné. It's a mainstay at the airport and is as practical as it is quietly stylish.

Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag

One of the most iconic designer duffle bags in existence? The Louis Vuitton Speedy bag. While the monogrammed version might be the most recognizable, it also comes in a checkered print and Épi leather.

Métier Perriand and Vérité Bags

London-based Métier is carving out a strong reputation for its expertly crafted travel-inspired leather bags. The rising brand has caught the attention of celebrities such as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who has been spotted recently wearing the Perriand tote finished with signature braided handles. The Vérité bag is a similar style from the brand.

Gucci Duffle Bag

Gucci is another brand that has perfected the monogram duffle bag, making it a mainstay among the travel set. Its version is finished with the historic GG Supreme logo print in mixed canvas and leather.

Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Bag

Bottega Veneta's signature Intrecciato finishes the brand's duffle—making the logoless bag the ultimate "if you know, you know" piece to those who recognize the woven leather technique. Celebrities like Kendall Jenner have the bag in their travel arsenal.
