Know before you buy
Because the handle tubes are mounted on the outside of the bag rather than the inside, the interior floor of the suitcase is completely flat. This prevents your clothes from getting caught on ridges and helps minimize wrinkles during transit.
The CX system allows you to increase the internal packing capacity with a simple one-touch mechanism. Once you have packed your items, you can push down on the case to compress it back to its original size, keeping your belongings secure and the bag compact.
At 22 x 14 x 9 inches, this suitcase is designed to meet the standard carry-on size requirements for most domestic and international airlines. However, it is always a good idea to check your specific airline's current size restrictions before flying.
Ballistic nylon is an exceptionally tough, tightly woven fabric specifically engineered to resist tears, abrasions, and moisture. It is widely considered one of the most durable materials for luggage, making it ideal for frequent travelers.
The guarantee covers all functional aspects of the suitcase, including the wheels, handle, and zippers, for the lifetime of the product. If a functional component fails due to wear or damage, the brand will repair it to ensure the bag remains in working order.
