Know before you buy
The Outsider handle is mounted on the outside of the case rather than the inside. This creates a completely flat interior packing surface, which helps prevent wrinkles and allows you to pack more efficiently without navigating around handle tubes.
The case features a 3-layer, 100% virgin Makrolon polycarbonate construction with a specialized textured finish. This design is specifically engineered to be scratch-resistant, helping the suitcase maintain its appearance even after rough handling by baggage handlers.
The Briggs & Riley Torq 2.0 Medium Checked Trunk weighs 10.7 pounds. While it is built for durability, it is important to keep this base weight in mind when packing to stay within airline weight limits.
Yes, the aircraft-grade aluminum handle features three distinct stop heights. This allows you to adjust the handle to a position that is most comfortable for your height and walking stride.
Yes, the suitcase comes with a built-in TSA-friendly combination lock. This allows security personnel to inspect your luggage without damaging the lock or the suitcase shell.
The 4-wheel spinner system is designed for effortless 360-degree maneuverability on smooth surfaces like airport terminals. While it glides easily on flat floors, like most spinner luggage, it may require tilting onto two wheels when navigating over carpet or uneven pavement.
