They call it luggage because you spend so much time lugging it around. But the job just got easier, thanks to two new lines of travel gear.

< li>Züca’s Züka (pictured) is the ultimate carry-all, combining the lightweight conven­ience of a backpack with the spacious durability of a suitcase. Its unusual design features an aluminum frame built around a removable, washable bag. The Züka has wheels, so it’s as easy to roll as it is to carry. And when you’re tired, it’s sturdy enough to use as a seat. Sweet. $120. www.zuca.com

The new Cargo collection from Tumi blends style with sensibility in nylon messenger bags, small backpacks, and laptop computer sleeves that come in three sizes and colors. $35-$250. www.tumi.com— JOSH SENS
