    This was my first time buying a bag online

    This was my first time buying a bag online, so I was a bit hesitant, but I have no regrets! I absolutely love the bag, and I'll definitely be coming back to this store whenever I need a new one. Highly recommended!

The San Michelle promise

What you get, beyond the case

We have sold bags and luggage in Auckland long enough to know which promises matter when something goes wrong at the airport.

Up to 15 year warranty

Our hard case suitcases are backed by a 10 year warranty against manufacturing faults, and selected ranges carry cover of up to 15 years. Normal wear and tear and accidental damage are not included. Where there is a fault we always try to repair the case first, and if a repair is not possible we replace it with the same case or a comparable one. Bring it into any of our nine Auckland stores, or email us photos and your proof of purchase and our team will assess it.

100% German Bayer polycarbonate

Our hard case shells are moulded from 100% German Bayer polycarbonate for outstanding strength and impact resistance. It flexes on impact and returns to shape rather than cracking, which is why a case that gets thrown around a baggage hold still closes properly on the way home.

7 day exchange or 12 month credit note

Please choose carefully, because we do not refund for change of mind. If you would like to swap all or part of an order, tell us within 7 days of receiving it and we will happily exchange the product or issue an online credit voucher for the same value, valid for 12 months. Items need to come back in their original condition with all labels attached and proof of purchase. You can return online orders by post, or over the counter at any of our stores.

Free Auckland shipping over $89.99

Orders over $89.99 ship free across the Auckland area. We process orders within 1 to 2 business days, and every order is tracked, so you get a tracking link by email as soon as your case is on its way.

9 Auckland stores

Albany, Sylvia Park, New Lynn, Henderson, Dress Smart Onehunga, Manukau, St Lukes, Newmarket and Manawa Bay at Auckland Airport. You can lift the case, roll it across the floor and open the lid before you buy, which is still the fastest way to know if a size is right.

Try it before you fly

Nine Auckland stores, one at the airport

Roll it, lift it, open it. Our team can tell you in a minute whether a 67cm or a 77cm is the case you will actually use.

We were provided amazing service by Erica. We originally went to another store for a suitcase but came back to San Michelle because they had better prices and we remembered Erica and her helpful knowledge. Thank you!

AdrienGoogle review, June 2026

Erica and Reya are absolute stars! Such great customer service. Great explanation of available products, professional consultative approach. We ended up with a great deal for checked in luggage. Manawa Bay team, huge kudos to you. Highly recommend.

Anuja KGoogle review, April 2026

Within about five minutes of sending an email I received a reply and then the manager from the Manawa Bay store actually called me. That level of responsiveness and customer service is very rare these days.
