Key Features
- Ultra-Lightweight Hardside Shell: Constructed from crack-resistant polycarbonate, the shell is both strong and flexible, absorbing impact to prevent damage while maintaining a lightweight profile. Its smooth finish resists visible scuffs and wear, keeping your luggage looking newer longer.
- 8 Spinner Wheels with 360° Rotation: Eight smooth-gliding wheels allow for effortless maneuvering in any direction, whether you’re weaving through crowded terminals or rolling down narrow aisles. The multi-directional system ensures stability and control on various surfaces.
- Expandable Capacity: A zipper expansion system adds up to 2 inches of extra space when you need it, perfect for souvenirs or unexpected packing needs—without compromising structural integrity.
- Integrated TSA-Approved Lock: Built-in security lets you lock your bag with confidence. The TSA-recognized lock allows authorized personnel to inspect your luggage without damaging it, deterring theft while complying with airport regulations.
- Smart Interior Organization: Two zippered divider panels and a built-in accessory pocket keep clothes, shoes, and essentials neatly separated and secure during transit. The layout minimizes shifting and maximizes usable space.
- Eco-Friendly ECOFAB™ Lining: The interior is lined with fabric made from approximately 9.5 recycled plastic bottles, treated with H2O Guard for added moisture resistance. This sustainable choice reduces environmental impact without sacrificing performance.
- Reinforced Corner Guards: Internal corner reinforcements protect high-impact zones from dents and damage, especially during rough handling or drops, extending the life of your suitcase.
- Adjustable PowerScope Lite Handle: The telescoping handle adjusts to multiple heights for a comfortable grip, while the rubberized Contour Grip enhances control and reduces hand fatigue during long walks through the airport.
