merc280v6 6th Gear May 22, 2018 Share May 22, 2018 I agree with the look but not when the luggage is so new that itâs is itâs first tripFor brands like Rimowa, I only use for carry-on luggage.Have you seen the airport luggage handlers throw and shaft bags around? Get to see such ill treatment, especially when I am in the US domestic airport terminals. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ysc3 Twincharged May 22, 2018 Share May 22, 2018 I use rice bag or taurpalin bag. whatever you use, buy those 2" luggage belts (from daiso) and then belt up your bags when you check your bags in. very good extra protection. soft case, hard case and even duffles will arrive intact !

(wheels not included) imho not a good idea to tighten the bag with beltit cause the bag “explode” (pecah) when throw or under stress ... that’s my opinion only Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesc Hypersonic May 22, 2018 Share May 22, 2018 Buy expensive luggage just for the bag handlers to throw here throw there get scratches and then feel heart pain just to keep your dirty underwear and then complain cost of living is too high?

Mockngbrd Supersonic May 31, 2018 Share May 31, 2018 (edited) Er no, what i meant was isn't that the whole point of alum rimowa? To be used for check-in to get thrown around and manhandled. Same like Pelican. Edited May 31, 2018 by Mockngbrd Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
