Rimowa celebrated its 110th anniversary in 2008 as one of the world's most famous luggage manufacturers. Rimowa was founded in 1898 by Paul Morszeck, in Cologne, Germany, making suitcases in wood, but already the emphasis was on strong, lightweight materials. In the late 1930s, his son, Richard Morszeck, was fascinated by aircraft aluminium. In 1937 Rimowa marketed the first overseas trunk made of lightweight metal. In 1950 the company made design history, building the first suitcase made of structural aluminium. The sturdy luggage thus became extremely popular with flight crews and airline passengers. The groove design made the brand world famous and is still used today in all Rimowa ranges.
 
In 2000 Rimowa was the first company to produce polycarbonate luggage. As well as being exceptionally light, they are extremely robust.
 
The polycarbonate material is almost unbreakable as it has an elastic reaction under pressure. As soon as the pressure is removed the case automatically returns to its original shape. This has been a groundbreaking development in the luggage industry - all the other leading manufacturers have scrambled to catch up, but our customers have caught on very quickly.
 
The Multiwheel roller system makes the case incredibly easy to manoeuvre, through crowds, or queues. The upright wheeling position also allows you to put your heavy carryon bag on top, leaving you with no heavy load on your arms or wrists. The extraordinary weight advantage is terrific when you're squeezing in just one more purchase, and when you have to lug the case up steps or onto a train, or into a car boot. Avoid hefty and increasingly punitive excess baggage fees when you get to the check-in counter and sail under the weight limit yet again. Rimowa gives a 5-year guarantee on locks, fittings and castors - Transport (ie airline) damage is not covered under the guarantee and must be dealt with by the carrier. All cases come with a TSA combination lock, which can be opened by the United States Transport Security Authority.
 
One of the features we love is how the case"splits" into two when unzipped. This makes unpacking (and finding things) very easy, as you don't have to dig through the depth of the entire suitcase looking for one thing. You can then divide the case into different categories - eg warm clothes v cold clothes, or clothes already worn, or put all paperwork and catalogues on one side etc.
 
Pull-up handles are designed for all heights, and"lock" at different heights - great for shorter people, or when you are wheeling the case upright beside you, but the full extra-tall height is crucial if you want to put your wheeled carryon bag on top. The best example of this is the wonderful Rimowa "business trolley", which sits neatly on top of any size Rimowa suitcase.
