Located in downtown San Francisco's Three Embarcadero Center since 1977 is Edwards Luggage. With one of the Bay Area's widest selections of luggage, business cases, wallets, travel accessories and their own line of Edwards Exclusives, Edwards Luggage provides everything you could need or want to tote your goods and ease your excursion. Though Edwards Luggage has an old-school elegant feeling, they carry not only business-ready baggage such as TUMI's Wheeled 22" Frequent Traveler for $495.00, but also the more weekender-friendly Victorinox Large Deluxe Cargo Duffel in bold blue for $99.99.

Owner Randy MacKenzie is a suitcase expert. She grew up living and breathing the family luggage business, which has been around for almost 60 years. She, her brother and sister are the second generation of the family that now runs Edwards Luggage's four Bay Area locations. -- Michelle Sieling
