1. The Port Authority BG205 Commuter Backpack
First up on our list of must-have travel bags is the Commuter Backpack from Port Authority. If holiday travel had a mascot, it would be this bag. It's made from 1,680-denier ballistic polyester, which is a fancy way of saying it can get crammed into an overhead bin, kicked under a seat and dragged through three terminals without complaining. That makes one of you. The padded laptop compartment on the back unzips like a clamshell and fits most 15" laptops, so you're not the person holding up the security line while everyone behind you sighs loudly.
Inside, a file divider keeps your boarding passes and paperwork from turning into a crumpled mess. There's also a tricot-lined zippered pocket for your phone and sunglasses, and a front organization panel for chargers, pens and the overpriced airport pretzel you swore you weren't going to buy. The padded straps adjust to fit, there's a handle on top, and a sleeve on the back slides right over your rolling suitcase, so the backpack can ride along while your shoulders take a break. At about 1,632 cubic inches, it holds a change of clothes, the essentials, and the holiday cookies Grandma insists you take home.
2. The Port Authority BG100 Xcape Computer Backpack
Next on our list is the Xcape Computer Backpack from Port Authority, made for the holiday traveler with a packed schedule. Office party Friday, Aunt Linda's Saturday, the in-laws by Sunday dinner. It's made from 600-denier polyester canvas, and the laptop gets its own padded compartment that zips open from the side. You can slide your computer out without digging past the sweater you're bringing back to the store. It fits most 17" laptops, so even the big ones have a spot.
Up front, there's a zippered pocket with an organizer panel for cords, pens and the gift receipts you'll definitely need, plus a second zippered pocket that's easy to put a logo on. Two mesh side pockets hold a water bottle or a travel mug of something warm. The back and straps are both padded, and the back panel uses spacer mesh, so you won't feel like you hauled a sack of presents across the mall. At about 1,752 cubic inches, it has room for a weekend's worth of stuff and still has space for whatever leftovers get sent home with you.
3. The CornerStone CSB205 Tactical Backpack
Sometimes, the holiday feels more like a battlefield than a time of rest. For those occasions when you need the Swiss army knife of bags in your corner, this tactical backpack from CornerStone might just be the trick that gets you through the holidays unscathed. Whether you're managing your entire family coming to your house at 3:00 p.m. or bringing entertainment for your kiddos on the long car ride, this tactical backpack has the cargo space and convenience to keep it all together.
Made with polyester canvas and boasting a spacious main compartment, this backpack is as convenient as it is rugged. Plus, with multiple zipper pockets and a convenient hydration port, you're literally ready for anything the season can throw at you.
4. The Independent Trading INDDUFBAG Day Tripper 29L Duffel Bag
For those quick trips in and out, this Day Tripper duffel bag from Independent Trading offers the perfect excuse to ditch the party early. Whether you're traveling from one holiday meal to another, overstuffing yourself at each one, or just want to visit the in-laws for a short but meaningful time, this small duffel offers just enough space to carry your gear without overloading yourself.
5. The Liberty Bags 3906 Explorer Large Duffel Bag
If you are looking to take a longer journey over the holidays, this Explorer duffel bag from Liberty Bags offers cargo space and convenience, so you can take it all with you. Perfect for a longer weekend getaway or carrying five ugly sweaters for the same party, this handy duffel bag offers ample room for either. With multiple pockets and a large opening, it's easy to carry extra gifts or extra pairs of warm winter socks.
You'll enjoy the multiple carrying handles and the numerous compartments to keep everything organized throughout the trip. Plus, it's made of 50% recycled polyester, which is really the gift that keeps on giving.
6. The Port Authority BG512 6-Can Cube Cooler
No matter how many holiday parties are on your calendar this season, it's nice to show up with something for the host. A bottle of wine works. A six-pack of something cold in a cooler they get to keep works even better. This 6-Can Cube Cooler from Port Authority holds six cans plus an ice pack, so the hard cider, craft beer or fancy sparkling water stays cold on the drive over. You won't have to apologize for room-temperature drinks the second you walk in the door.
It's made from tough polyester with a heat-sealed, water-resistant lining, so a melting ice pack or a can that decides to leak won't turn into a disaster. There's a zippered mesh pocket inside for a bottle opener or a few napkins, and an adjustable strap so you can sling it over your shoulder and still have both hands free for the pie. The big front pocket is a great spot for a logo, which makes this an easy pick for company gifts too. It's small enough to fit on the floor of the car and cute enough that the host might actually use it again next summer.
7. The Port Authority BG306 Computer Messenger
Last but not least, a bag for the poor soul who's working through the holidays while everyone else is out of office. This Computer Messenger from Port Authority can't get you out of the year-end report, but it'll make the commute a little less grim. The laptop and tablet have their own entry on the back of the bag, so you can grab them without flipping open the flap and spilling your lunch, your charger and three candy canes onto the train floor. The padding around that section keeps your electronics protected, and it fits most 15" laptops.
The outside is made from tough ballistic polyester, and the flap closes with two adjustable buckles. There's a stretchy mesh side pocket for your coffee and a second side pocket for whatever else you need to keep close. The shoulder strap is padded, adjustable and detachable, and there's a padded handle on top for when you'd rather carry it like a briefcase. The zippered pocket on the front flap is the perfect spot for a logo, which makes it a solid gift for the team members who'll be holding down the fort. Not exactly a bah humbug bag.
Of course, this list is just the tip of the iceberg. We've got plenty more bags, backpacks and totes in our collection. Check out the whole list (and check it twice) to find your new favorite bag for winter travel.
