About Skyway Luggage

The Adventure's Beginning in the Emerald City

Founded in 1910 by A.J. Kotkins, Skyway began operation from Seattle’s Pioneer Square under the name Seattle Suitcase, Trunk and Bag Manufacturing Company. A.J.’s son, Henry Louis Kotkins, joined the business in 1936. With a vision inspired by the growing airline industry and the excitement of air travel, he introduced a line of luggage called “Skyway.” Kotkins’ commitment to delivering high-quality products earned him a loyal following of international travelers seeking a reliable-yet-accessible travel experience.

Today, the brand continues to manifest its respected reputation through constant innovation. Characterized by the utilization of durable materials to create lasting travel statements, Skyway is the perfect companion for the adventurer. Our luggage does more than hold your possessions. We add functionality to whatever trip you’re taking. We are an extension of your personal style. We make your travel experience better because we stand by the ideals of quality, functionality and modern style.

We have since 1910.
