Travel & Entertainment | Shop Luggage & Travel Bags on Bob Shop

A journey of a thousand miles starts with a travel bag. (Well, that is our version). Life is definitely a journey, and no matter your destination - by train, plane or automobile - choosing the right luggage is imperative.

At Bob Shop, you are spoilt for choice when it comes to all types of luggage and travel bags. Choose from overnight bags, backpacks and laptop travel bags to hand luggage options and suitcases in all colours and sizes, travelling in style is just a click away.

Our online showroom offers you a dream travel bag experience thanks to the myriad of merchants showcasing their baggage and wares online. Whatever your luggage requirements or preferences, look no further than Bob Shop.

Before you plan your next trip - get your luggage sorted. The reason is simple - the next time you stand in an airline queue, we don’t want you to experience “baggage envy” (yes, it is a real thing). And by shopping for all types of travel bags - your way - on our online platform, you can certainly look the part - whether it is a business trip, a weekend getaway, a hiking trip, a 3-day cruise or a holiday abroad.

A Business Trip?
If you travel regularly for work, living out of a suitcase is an art. A savvy business traveller values convenience, and an all-purpose piece of hand luggage/carry-on and laptop bag is a no-brainer. (You really don’t have time to stand in queues waiting at the luggage carousel). Your meeting awaits. We’re talking lightweight anti-theft laptop backpacks or shoulder bags to fit your budget - from canvas or waterproof oxford cloth to leather.

A Weekend Away?
A weekend away or a midweek break is a necessary pause in our busy lifestyles, allowing us some much needed R&R. South Africa offers you the ultimate in destination options - coast, mountain or bush - we have it all. All you need is to throw a few things (okay, a lot of things) in a large(ish) duffel bag and off you go. Or perhaps you prefer a smaller shell case suitcase on wheels? Both options are suited at Bob Shop.

Taking A Hike?
Aah, the outdoorsy types. You prefer to hike up Table mountain rather than take the cable car. Your next goal is the Otter Trail. (Good for you!) We get it! Even if we don’t get it, Dr Seuss does: “You’re off to Great Places! Today is your day! Your mountain is waiting, so….get on your way!” Just make sure you have the right backpack, and that is where we come in. Hiking (or backpacking through Europe) requires a customised lightweight backpack fit for the job. (These can be framed or frameless). A waterproof backpack is preferable, but otherwise, you can always add a rain cover.

A Trip Abroad?
Lucky You! (Never mind baggage envy, we are just plain envious!). A holiday overseas, or even a longer journey locally, needs the big guns - that 3-piece set of “hardcore” rolling luggage. Of course, we shouldn’t presume, as you may prefer a softside suitcase set (made from either microfiber, leather, nylon, PVC, or polyester) which are often expandable and can accommodate up to 25% more if you need the space. (Of course you need the space - travel shopping goes without saying).

Whatever your travel plans, there are many factors to consider - weight and size, colour, built-in locks, telescopic handles etc. - so do your homework and then find exactly what you need right here online among our myriad of travel bag and luggage options.

So what are you waiting for? As Dr Seuss would say, “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.” So, buy the outdoor backpack, duffel bag, hand luggage, laptop bag or 3-piece suitcase set right here on Bob Shop and get packing!
