Cult-favorite luggage brand Away just added a fancy new design to one of their best-selling suitcases, and we have a feeling you're going to want to get one before they sell out (because they will). Thanks to their latest partnership with the American Express® Green Card, you can now get an asphalt-colored Carry-On, Bigger Carry-On, Medium or Large suitcase with a limited-edition mint green zipper.

This is what we like like to call on-brand.

The Carry-On (21.7 inches x 13.7 inches x 9 inches) and the Bigger Carry-On (22.7 inches x 14.7 inches x 9.6 inches) are designed to fit easily into the overhead bins on most airlines, and feature:

  • A durable polycarbonate shell
  • An optional ejectable battery that charges your phone or iPad
  • TSA-approved combination lock
  • 360-degree spinner wheels
  • Leather detailing
  • Black leather luggage tag
  • Interior compression system
  • Hidden laundry bag

If you're looking for something more spacious, both the Medium (26 inches x 18.5 inches x 11 inches) and Large (29 inches x 20.5 inches x 12.5 inches) suitcases have all the same features except for the removable battery, and have much more room for souvenirs.

The American Express® Green Card just came out with some buzzy new perks you'll want to know about. New cardholders will earn 30,000 Membership Rewards points after spending $2,000 in purchases on the card in the first three months. According to our latest valuations, that's worth $600.

From now through Jan. 15, you can also earn up to a $100 statement credit on eligible Away purchases you make in the first three months. So, if you're eyeing that Away x American Express suitcase, now might be the time to apply for a new card. The suitcases range from $225 to $295, so this credit can definitely take a good chunk of change off your purchase.

With this card, you'll also receive an up to $100 annual credit when you use their American Express Green Card to purchase a Clear® membership and another up to $100 annual credit for LoungeBuddy access.

This gray-and-mint suitcase is just the latest in a flurry of updates and limited-edition products Away has been launching this year. Over the summer, they released a Daily Carry-On with Pocket, which is pretty ideal for business travelers, if you ask us. And in September, they released their most colorful collection yet, thanks to a partnership with Flour Shop. That's one way to make sure you can always find your bag at baggage claim.

Your suitcase probably says more about you than you think, too, so make sure it's a good one.
