Canucks Abroad: Showstopping Luggage to Show Your Canadian Pride
What It Is: There’s currency to being a Canadian in foreign countries. Some people stitch a Canadian patch on their bag, others don a pin or add a luggage tag. If you really want to go all out though, why not just get crazy Canadian-printed bags? These hardshell suitcases come bedecked with a truly Canuck-friendly print of all the things we love (or at least are known for) best. From Inukshuks to hockey to maple leafs, it’s a perfect gift for the Canadian that’s about to spread their wings this summer.
Who It’s For: Your graduating niece or nephew. Your world traveling kid. Your retiree parents who are ready to see our great country from coast to coast.
What It Costs: $99.99 – $129.99
Where It’s At: Sears.ca
Score an extra entry into last week’s Father’s Day R&R giveaway! Tell me in the comments below – how do you share that you’re Canadian when you’re abroad? Would you rock these cool bags?
Yes, I do like the bags. I am a backpack person, so would love the pattern on backpack. I usually just tell everyone that I am Canadian.
I’ve never been abroad, but I would definitely wear a pin or sew on a patch, unless I had these pieces of luggage.
When I was younger, I had a flag sewn on my backpack and on a jacket. It served me well during my travels. Now I have a flag pin that I put on my lapel or on my crossbody purse strap.
I would rock that suitcase aboard. I I have Canadian tag that I put on my suitcase when travelling.
Those are certainly lively. I am pretty discreet when travelling.
We had Canada flag emblems sewn on our backpacks. Love the suitcases!
These are great bags , I’d like them. We will travel with roots stuff that say Canada on them.
I think these bags are cool when I was in Jamaica people said I have a Canadian accent.
I am a proud Canadian but I’m cautious wearing anything that makes me looks like a tourist. I don’t mind being in the United States and some Caribbean countries wearing my country colours but there are places I don’t want to wear anything that might make me a target.
I have a Canadian flag pin on my backpack.
I show I’m a Canadian with my roots luggage and by my Canadian gal on my backpack when I travel. 🇨🇦
I often wear a maple leaf brooch, but I would hesitate to flaunt anything that might make me a target. I am proud that our good behaviour and pleasant manner mark us as Canadians when travelling.
Never been abroad but this luggage would be a showstopper wherever I went
I’ll bring that I’m Canadian if I’m in a pub and having a conversation with people. This luggage is very cool! I would rock.
I don’t go out of my way normally to brand myself Cdn, just if it comes up in conversation. I prefer something less showy in luggage.
These are pretty busy. A little much for my taste. If it comes up in conversation I will let people know that I’m Canadian.
These are a bit eclectic and I would rock them – chances are you’d see few others – so picking out your luggage would be easy! I used to keep extra Canadian flag pins with me but I no longer do that when I’m travelling.
Love this luggage. Don’t have to put my Canada flag tag anymore to distinguish my luggage. I tell everyone I meet on my overseas trip that I’m from Canada.
These bags are really nice! I generally don’t do anything to show I’m Canadian when im abroad.
I LOVE these bags and would definitely use them. I usually have a Canada pin attached to my cross-body bag when I travel.
When I travel abroad I ALWAYS bring my red “Canada” knapsack (by Roots) and I carry it with me wherever I go because I am very proud to be Canadian and want everyone to know it!
…and yes, I would definitely rock these cool bags!! :o)
I would love these cases, canadian plus easy to find
We have Blue Jay hats that are red with just the Maple Leaf!
easy to find on the carousel… love the motif
Love these! would use these all the time! when i travel overseas i usually have a canada flag patch on my backpack and have a vancouver canucks shirt packed
I totally would rock these! The prints are so fun!
We are always proud to say we are from Canada when we are travelling abroad. Our luggage also has a Canadian flag on it.
love the bags. When travelling, we usually give out canadian pins to people we meet.
BONUS R&R Dad Style ENTRY : Most people can tell from my accent that I’m Canadian and I would totally rock these cool bags!
I’ve often heard that one Canadian flag on your gear marks you as Canadian…more than one marks you as American trying to pass as Canadian! We still have a reputation for more agreeableness and less nation-centricism – greater humility and respect in general – than our southern neighbours, although that gap has closed in recent decades!
I would totally rock these cool bags! I usually wear a shirt or hat 🙂
I would definitely rock these bags – very cute! However, when traveling abroad I usually try to make sure I have a Canadian flag sticker or tag on my bags to let people know where I am from.
I love the luggage designs!! I i have a few canadian shirts I wear sometimes when traveling.
