Aluminum Frame Hardshell Suitcase

REF.201 — THE ALUMINUM FRAME

A trunk in the old sense of the word. Aluminum frame, riveted seam, corner guards that exist because corners take the hits. The shell is fluted for rigidity — those vertical lines run the full height of the case because that's how you make a thin wall strong, not because it looks good. It also looks good.

No zipper on the main closure. The frame locks with dual TSA combination latches — metal to metal. Zippers are the first thing to fail on a suitcase; this doesn't have one to fail.

BUILT FOR THE HOLD

SIZING

20" carry-on for the overhead bin. 22"–24" for the long weekend. 26"–30" checked, for when you're not coming back Monday. Nine finishes, one spec.

Understated luxury built for the daily grind — at a fair price. That's the whole idea.
