SwissGear luggage sizes

SwissGear is a travel gear brand owned by Wenger and licensed for manufacturing and distribution in North America by Group III International Ltd. It is not owned by or affiliated with Samsonite, despite frequent online comparisons between the two brands. The catalog is built around the Sion softside spinner collection, a set of polycarbonate and ABS hardside lines including Energie, Signature, Ridge, Summit Reserve, and Cascade II, and the long-running ScanSmart laptop backpack series. SwissGear also sells a compact softside underseat roller (Checklite) for personal item sized trips.

How SwissGear measures

Every SwissGear product page observed on swissgear.com lists two separate figures, INTERIOR DIMENSIONS and EXTERIOR DIMENSIONS, with an explicit footnote that the exterior number includes the wheels and handle. The interior figure is the packable cavity, not a wheel free shell measurement, so treat it as a packing volume reference rather than a true body only depth. No SwissGear page observed gave a body only shell measurement excluding wheels, so bodyOnly is left null throughout this file.
