April 13, 2026 · Best Expandable Carry-Ons: Arlo Skye
"This lemon-colored carry-on has been with me on weekslong trips around the Greek islands and weekend jaunts upstate alike — the exterior front pocket that expands out is seriously such a game-changer for sneaking back extra souvenirs," says Vogue shopping editor Elly Leavitt, naming Arlo Skye in the Best Expandable Carry-On category in Vogue's definitive luxury luggage roundup alongside Louis Vuitton, Rimowa, Gucci, and Tumi. — Vogue, April 13, 2026
North Palm Beach Life: Arlo Skye: I Won't Leave Home Without It
April 3, 2026 · Featuring: The Large Top Load Expandable Trunk
"Would the top load design hold what I normally pack in my traditional 'clamshell' bag? The answer is a resounding 'yes.'" The reviewer tested the trunk on an MSC Grandiosa Caribbean cruise, noting it was easy to unpack in a ship's stateroom and could double as extra storage when closet space runs short. — North Palm Beach Life, April 3, 2026
Travel + Leisure: The Best Expandable Luggage Pieces of 2026, Tested and Reviewed
April 2, 2026 · Arlo Skye wins Best with Laptop Compartment
"Not only does the Arlo Skye Expanded Carry-on Max hold an impressive amount of travel gear, it's also loaded with pockets to stay organized. There's a zip compartment on the front of the bag with dedicated space for a laptop up to 16 inches and spots for a wallet, charging cords, or travel documents. The front pocket takes away some of the suitcase's interior capacity, but the suitcase expands an extra 2 inches to make up for lost space. A removable compression pad also helps push down on clothing if you want to squish more inside the bag, but we didn't need it for a three-day trip."
The Details: Carry-on | 23 x 14.7 x 9.6 inches (unexpanded) | 7.5 pounds | Expands 2 inches | 48-liter capacity (unexpanded); 58-liter capacity (expanded) | Polycarbonate | 4 dual spinner wheels" —Travel + Leisure, April 2, 2026
Condé Nast Traveler: The Best Carry-On Luggage
April 2, 2026
"Arlo Skye's zipper-front carry-on has gone on many trips with senior features editor Megan Spurrell—Peru, upstate New York, and Montauk, to name a few. She describes it as "the perfect carry-on," and says this of the aesthetics: "I love the design of this bag—it feels like a reliable, sleek rolling bag, with design you'll never get tired of." Associate editor Charlie Hobbs, who has tested out the brand's new-and-improved model, concurs. "This is probably the best carry-on I've had," he says. "It glides on the sidewalk like an Olympic skater on the rink, and the Champagne colorway is so gloriously glamorous, it turns heads; expect compliments." He's taken it on a summer beach trip and used it to move, both out of his apartment and to another floor in the office, and says it "carries stacks of coffee table books like a champ." As for its more common use, it can hold a week's worth of clothing, easy, in part thanks to the interior compression panel. "It's easy-peasy to carry, with a side handle perfect for flinging the thing into the back of a cab, and so far, has held up extremely well, not a scratch on the thing."" — Condé Nast Traveler, April 2, 2026
