10 Ways To Personalize Your Travel Bags

July 28, 2024

Personalizing your luggage can make it easy to spot at the baggage carousel and add a touch of personality to your travel gear. Here are some creative ways to make your luggage stand out:

  1. Unique Luggage Tags: Choose colorful or custom luggage tags with distinctive designs. You can also opt for personalized tags with your name or a unique message.
  2. Brightly Colored Straps: Add a vibrant luggage strap around your suitcase. These are available in various patterns and colors, making it easy to identify your bag from a distance.
  3. Custom Stickers or Decals: Decorate your luggage with stickers or decals that reflect your interests or hobbies. Ensure they are durable and weather-resistant for travel. We like the various themed sets offered through Rimowa’s Stickers Collection.
  4. Fabric Covers: Use a patterned or brightly colored fabric luggage cover. These covers protect your suitcase from damage and make it instantly recognizable.
  5. Monogramming: Add your initials or name to your luggage using embroidery or iron-on patches. This adds a touch of elegance and personalization.
  6. Ribbon or Bandanas: Tie a colorful ribbon or bandana around the handle of your luggage. Choose something bold and easy to see.
  7. Personalized Keychains: Attach a distinctive keychain or charm to the zipper or handle of your bag. This can be a fun way to express your personality.
  8. Reflective Tape: Apply reflective tape to your luggage for easy identification, especially in low-light conditions. This is also a practical choice for safety.
  9. Paint or Doodle: If you’re feeling artistic, use fabric paint or markers to draw or write on a plain suitcase. Make sure the materials are permanent and won’t rub off easily.
  10. Fabric Patches: Sew or iron fabric patches onto your luggage. Choose patches that reflect your travels or interests for a personalized touch.

These personalization methods will help you quickly spot your luggage on the turnstile and reduce the chances of someone else mistakenly taking it.
