About
Away is a modern travel brand founded in 2015 by Jen Rubio and Steph Korey in New York City, built on the insight that existing luggage was either cheap and poor quality or expensive and over-engineered. The company's flagship product is its hard-shell polycarbonate carry-on suitcase, originally designed with a built-in USB-charging battery (later removed due to airline regulations, replaced with an innovative interior compression system). Away has expanded its product line to include checked bags in multiple sizes, duffel bags, backpacks, packing cubes, travel accessories, and apparel, all designed with a minimalist aesthetic and backed by a lifetime warranty for the original owner.
