To find the best roof bike racks, we rounded up a selection of nine different models to test and compare. From the top-rated Yakima HighRoad to the high-end Kuat Piston SR, we've got recommendations to suit your rooftop bike-carrying needs. Editor's Note: This guide was relocated from our sister site, GearJunkie.com, on December 5, 2025, and updated to include the Allen Smart Suction Rack and the SeaSucker Talon MAX.

Investing in a ski jacket is no small feat (nor a small price tag), so we take testing ski gear seriously at Travel + Leisure. We pride ourselves on using expert powder hound testers and editors to vet gear, but this season, we leveled up our testing by enlisting the help of professional alpine ski racing coaches to test out men's ski jackets.
