If your suitcase has seen better days, Solgaard is currently one of the easier luggage brands to buy on a budget. The label, a regular favourite in travel-editor gear tests alongside Away, Calpak and Travelpro, has a 10% off code running, a sale section with cuts of up to 60%, and a rewards scheme that quietly shaves more off future purchases.

The exclusive code CONDENAST10 knocks 10% off anything on the site, and it's valid through the end of the year. That applies to the brand's bestsellers — the Carry-On Closet and Check-In Closet, both built around a clever built-in shelving system that keeps packing organised — as well as smaller items like the Ventura backpack, the Voyager weekender with its roll-out unpacking design, and the Trio hanging toiletry bag.

Already discounted? The sale section is doing heavier lifting. Select colours of the Carry-On Closet are down from $345 to $275, the Carry-On Closet Lite from $245 to $196, and the Compass backpack from $165 to $132. The Solar Boombox has taken the steepest cut, dropping from $225 to $90. Sale prices currently ship free.

There's also a longer game: Solgaard Global Access, the brand's free rewards programme, earns one point per dollar spent, with 100 bonus points for signing up, 150 on your birthday, and small bonuses for following the brand on social media. Every 300 points converts to $15 in credit. Spending tiers accelerate the rate — 1.25 points per dollar once you've spent $900 (Globetrotter), and 1.5 points per dollar plus event invites after $1,500 (Global Citizen).

If you can wait until November, Black Friday and Cyber Monday are historically Solgaard's deepest discounts, with past years bringing 20% off big-ticket items like the Check-In Closet and up to 40% off sitewide.

Undecided on which bag suits you? Solgaard publishes a comparison guide covering price, volume, weight, recommended trip length and design features — handy for sorting out whether you're a carry-on-only traveller or need the full check-in setup.

One practical note for checkout: if a code fails, check for typos and extra spaces, confirm it hasn't expired or been used before, and verify whether it's restricted to first-time shoppers. Clearing your browser cache fixes most remaining glitches, and customer service can step in from there.

For anyone replacing gear before a big trip — or starting holiday gift shopping early — stacking the sale prices with the 10% code is the best value window available right now.
