Know before you buy
CURV technology is a woven polypropylene composite that is exceptionally lightweight while offering superior impact resistance. Unlike traditional polycarbonate, it is designed to flex under pressure and return to its original shape, making it highly resistant to cracking or denting.
With dimensions of 21.6 x 15.8 x 7.9 inches, this suitcase is designed to fit within the carry-on limits for most major domestic and international airlines. However, we always recommend checking your specific airline's size policy before flying, as requirements can vary.
The external USB port is a pass-through feature that allows you to connect your own power bank inside the suitcase to charge your devices on the go. Please note that the power bank itself is not included and must be stored inside the designated interior pocket.
Yes, the interior lining is crafted using Recyclex Material Technology. This fabric is manufactured from 100% post-consumer recycled PET bottles, reducing the environmental impact of the luggage production process.
The suitcase includes an expansion gusset that provides an additional 1 inch of depth. This is helpful for fitting in last-minute items or souvenirs, though keep in mind that expanding the bag may affect its ability to fit in smaller overhead bins.
The double spinner wheels are designed for 360-degree maneuverability on smooth surfaces like airport terminals and hotel floors. While they are robust, they perform best on flat ground rather than rough pavement or gravel.
