Description
Rimowa's grooved aluminum cases have been the choice of discerning travelers since 1950, when the first all-aluminum suitcase was introduced. The distinctive parallel grooves, inspired by the Junkers Ju 52 aircraft, provide structural strength while becoming a design signature. Each dent tells a story, and the cases develop character with use rather than deteriorating. The Multiwheel system, with four double wheels, ensures effortless maneuverability.
