OGIO, the global lifestyle and performance gear brand known for its high durability standards and sleek designs under Callaway Golf, has now expanded the iconic RISE collection with new luggage options that make travel easy. The expanded collection includes three pieces: The Carry-On, Checked Luggage, and Everyday Tote, all of which feature an elevated level of performance for travelers who value durability, refined design, and organization when selecting travel pieces. Each piece meets OGIO’s durability standards without compromising on style or functionality for an effortless experience.

RISE Carry-On Bag


Priced at $300, the OGIO Rise Carry-On is designed for any type of travel, with features that will elevate your style without compromising function. It has a durable polycarbonate exterior shell built to handle everything from weekend car rides to overhead bins, thanks to a reinforced design. Top features include:

  • SilentRun™ 360 spinner wheels keep you moving smoothly through any terminal, while the 3-stage trolley handle adjusts to fit travelers of multiple heights.
    Ample interior space for your next trip, including a removable shoe/laundry bag, compression panels with a zip pocket, and a hidden AirTag pocket for stress-free travel.
  • A 2″ expansion gives you an extra 5 liters of space when you need it—though the expanded size may exceed standard overhead bin limits
  • Available in three colors: Black, Vanilla creme, or Mahogany Rose

RISE Check-In Bag

Priced at $350, the check-in bag is a must-have piece for elevated travel with ease. This medium checked-size do-it-all luggage pairs perfectly with your Rise Collection and is designed with the reinforcement you need to rely on your luggage. Its durable polycarbonate exterior shell is built to handle checked travel with a reinforced design. Top features include:

  • SilentRun™ 360 spinner wheels keep you moving smoothly through any terminal, while the trolley handle adjusts to fit travelers of multiple heights.
