Love horses? Travel a lot? Combining the two makes perfect sense. You can get horse luggage in neutrals or whimsical colors, and pieces suitable for men, women, and children are available.
Where to Shop
Luggage with horses on it isn't the easiest to come by. You may not find what you're looking for during a last-minute trip to a big box store or department store, but you can have some luck online if you have the time.

Each pattern has duffel bags, messenger bags, and backpacks. Horse Dreams also has a rolling duffel and pack-it-all pouch. Some examples include:
- The Horse Dreams Overnighter Duffel Bag (about $30.00), which is 18" x 9" x 9" and comes with a detachable padded shoulder strap. The exterior is nylon, so it's moisture-resistant, which is great if you're traveling in the rain and part of your trip has to be done on foot. There's also a zippered exterior pocket, perfect for storing a phone and/or earbuds.

Amazon
Amazon has practically everything, including horse print luggage. They have some of the Wildkin products (both prints) as well as a few extras from other brands. Check out:
- The Stephen Joseph Classic Rolling Luggage in the Girl Horse style is available for less than $40.00 and perfect for little girls. There are a lot of smaller pockets for art supplies, headphones, and more. The extendable handle makes it easy for kids to pull behind them when the contents could make it too heavy to carry on their back. Shipping and returns are free.
- The HUGSIDEA 3D Animals Backpack is one of the brighter, more vibrant options out there, with a background of blue, teal, and magenta and a horse featuring many colors. It's large enough to carry a 15-inch laptop, among other things, and keeps things organized with two side mesh pockets, a zipper pocket on front, and a main compartment. It's good for school, of course, but it could also be all you need to spend one night away from home, or to keep the essentials near you when all of your other, larger luggage is in a trunk or other area you can't get to en route. Keep snacks, a tablet or laptop, headphones, a journal and pen, book, and more inside this backpack.
