American Tourister luggage sizes

American Tourister was founded in 1933 by brothers Sol and Irving Koffler in Providence, Rhode Island, originally as American Luggage Works. In 1993 the brand was acquired by Astrum International, the same holding company that owned Samsonite, and Astrum was renamed Samsonite Corporation in 1995, making American Tourister a sister brand to Samsonite under one corporate parent to this day. The brand is known for affordable, colorful, lightweight hardside and softside luggage aimed at value-conscious travelers, sold through its own US storefront at americantourister.com as well as major retailers such as Amazon, Walmart and Macy's.

How American Tourister measures

American Tourister's official US product pages (shop.americantourister.com) publish two spec-table fields in inches: External Dimensions, which the page's own tooltip defines as the total case size including handles and wheels, and Internal Dimensions, defined as packing space without handles or wheels, always listed in Height x Length x Width order with Height as the largest number. Many current PDPs on the site name sizes only by category (Carry-On, Medium, Large, Underseater) rather than printing a nominal inch number. Some retailer listings for this brand separately publish Body Dimensions (shell only, matching the nominal inch name) alongside Overall Dimensions (with wheels), and the gap between the two can be several inches, for example a nominal 28 inch Wavebreaker body is 28.0 in tall but its overall exterior with wheels is 31.0 in tall.
