Best Garment Bag? Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag

April 24, 2016 By Shelley Zurek 61 Comments

I want the BEST GARMENT BAG and I want it NOW!

Best Garment Bag Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag

Ebay and I are collaborating so I can let you know about the best garment bag available IMO. They sent me along this Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag ($296 currently) after I chose it from their site. 

Walt’s retiring so we need the best garment bag!

Have I told you guys the good news yet? Walt’s retiring! Yes, that’s right, after 38 years with the same company, he is signing his papers, packing up his bags and heading out the door.

Everyone keeps asking “What is Walt going to do? How will he fill his time?” They seem to think a man like Walt with his many talents and interests can’t find a way to occupy himself! Well, I can tell you what he/we are going to do! We are going to travel our face off.

Our luggage has suffered through the years

Through the years, we have went through quite a bit of different luggage. Some of the best pieces were lost by the airlines or cruise line. Some of our luggage were old out-of-date styles and we donated them to Salvation Army. One of our great rolling bags somehow got taken over by our daughter and we have never seen it again.

Holly Michigan Train Depot

The abandoned Holly Michigan Train Depot has seen a lot of travel.

Then there is the sad sad story of our garment bags. You know the ones…they were so popular in the ’80s and 90s. Every business and upscale traveler had those over-the-shoulder models that made your back ache and your shoulder scream. For awhile, when rolling bags and spinner bags came into vogue, garment bags seemed to go out of style…but Samsonite has changed all that.

Let’s take a look at this beautiful garment bag:

The new Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag was my choice as I choose from all the different garment bags on eBay (you can’t believe the selection of garment bags on eBay!)  I wanted a bag that had pockets on the outside (see above for the huge outside pockets on the Samsonite bag).

Walt insisted that the bag be a Spinner model making it super simple to navigate. The Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag features the  Samsonite’s new Split Spherical Wheels. Each half of the Sphere Wheel can move independently in the same or opposite direction to comfortably allow rolling over uneven or smooth surfaces alike with the same effortless motion for the ultimate in unparalleled control and turning ability.

Walt is 6’6″ tall so he also mandated that the handle be long enough for him to be able to pull without crouching over. Not only did he find the Sphere wheels easy to navigate with but the handle fit his long body easily and the textured TPR coated, gel-infused, push-button locking handle provided a comfortable grip.

The interior of the Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag was what sold me. I can easily pack for a 7 day trip with this bag. How great will it be for our next cruise?

The Samsonite garment bag has a fully featured interior which includes hanger hook, extender panel for longer garments, lined shoe compartment, compression straps, and multiple pockets for exceptional packing organization. The capacity is perfect for an overpacker like me!

The bag itself is 20.25 x 22 x 9.75 when closed, which means this bag must be checked. The Samsonite Silhouette Sphere 2 Deluxe Voyager Garment Bag comes in black which for me is the only luggage color I will consider.

    This bag looks nice. It seems like it will keep the clothes from getting too wrinkled during the travel experience.

      Exactly! The last thing we feel like doing after a long day of traveling is ironing! This is smart.

    It is so important to invest in a really good garment bag. This one looks like really great quality. The wheels look sturdy and I love all of the compartments inside.

    I’ve used many a suitcase and duffle bag in my time but I must say I’ve not come across one that sleek before! Plus it really looks like it can fit a LOT with the way it’s shaped unlike many cases I’ve seen in the past. Plus I, too, am an over-packer (I seriously can’t help it) so this would be perfect for my needs. A big congratulations to hubby for retiring! I can’t wait to see the places you guys go.

    It looks like you can fit so much in this Samsonite! I’m pretty jealous of all the traveling you guys will be doing. Hopefully, one day I can do the same.

    That is one cool garment bag. My parents are always carrying around a garment bag when they travel. I am going to have to show on this one I think they will like it.

    Congratulations to Walt on his retirement and good luck to you surviving the first year. I have experience with this if you want to talk. It’s not as easy as it might sound for them. Especially the driven ones. Enjoy your travels! That bag looks AWESOME! I’ve never been on a cruise although I have heard they are a lot of fun.

      Hey Patty!! I am lucky. Walt is particularly driven. He is successful because he is brilliant but he won’t even check his emails at home. LOL. I think we will be good. But I may just be taking you up on your offer…you never know. Shelley

    That looks like a great bag. I hate to admit it, but when I travel, my bags get knocked around like crazy. I need something tough.

    You know, my luggage was broken on my last trip, so this is just great! We have a trip this Summer so this garment bag is perfect. Thanks so much for sharing…
