During the rise of aviation technology in the 1930s, the RIMOWA brand of luggage took wings. The founder's son, Richard Morszeck, was fascinated by the lightweight aircraft aluminum that was used on planes. It was then in 1937 that his idea of using aircraft aluminum on luggage took shape. As this idea came to light, the first overseas trunk made of this lightweight metal was introduced. Following in the footsteps of this monumental design, the first suitcase made of structural aluminum with the grooves was created in 1950. This sturdy luggage became extremely popular with flight crews, airline passengers and world travelers, who seek luggage that would show their travel miles through well-earned dents and scratches yet still stand up to heavy treatment.
Building upon RIMOWA's quality reputation for lightweight metal suitcases, in 1976 RIMOWA launched their first waterproof metal suitcases. These cases were designed for cameras and photographic equipment to protect the items from water, humidity, tropical heat, and even arctic cold. The creative concepts did not stop there for RIMOWA. In 2000, RIMOWA raised the bar even higher for quality luggage by launching their series of polycarbonate luggage, the first ever on the market. Known for being almost indestructible, the impact-resistant polycarbonate practically pops dents back out all by itself. Over three different centuries, RIMOWA cases have been able to handle anything they are asked and expected to do. Through expert craftsmanship, high-quality material, and precision manufacturing, the original principle upon which the company was founded lives stronger than ever today. With their popular series of exquisite luggage collections such as the Salsa, Salsa Air, and Salsa Deluxe, the tradition for attention to detail is finely displayed. In carrying on with tradition, these collections, as well as all RIMOWA luggage, is still handcrafted with care and knowledge of customer needs. Within their factories, it is there that "Handwerk meets hightech" (Handcraft meets high tech) and the RIMOWA line of high-quality, lightweight, and technology-driven luggage is not made, but invented.

This suitcase is the lightest and most maneuverable suitcase I've used. I use the 22" for short trips; the 26" for longer ones.

This suitcase cracked during its first use while it was in my car trunk! Of course, there were no sharp objects or anything else that could damage the case. The polycarbonate material is extremely brittle. Of course, Rimowa's warranty does not cover cracks, scratches or pretty much anything else. Consider this before buying this low-quality product with a useless warranty.

This was a total splurge that is worth it. The weight is great. The wheels perfect for airplanes or taking through city streets. I was concerned because it was smaller than my other carry on. This fit just as much because it is so well designed. Will be using this for decades to come.

Perfect size, nearly weightless! Too big to carry but certainly large enough for casual wear for a week! For me, the perfect size with the unsurpassed durability of Rimowa.

After a decade of various misguided luggage purchases that resulted in a closet full of random too-heavy and/or too-flimsy suitcases, we decided to give the polycarbonate thing a whirl. I bought this Rimowa Salsa Air after some research, and just before a transatlantic trip. It performed wonderfully. It's lightweight, firm-sided but flexible enough to accommodate some stuffing, and still looks brand-new after four crowded flights in terrible weather. I will be purchasing other suitcases to match it, and I don't mind spending the big bucks because I suspect I'll be bequeathing these to my grandchildren. Favorite features: the built-in lock, swiveling wheels, and the stylish appearance.

I love my purple Rimowa luggage. This is my third piece...looking forward to adding the fourth and having the complete set. It is lightweight, easy to pack, and rolls like a dream. I managed all three pieces and my carry on tote by myself on a recent trip. People are always asking what it is and where I got it and I tell them Zappos! This particular piece is perfect for a multi-clothes change weekend or that extra bag for a long trip. There is no excuse for not being properly prepared and with my Rimowa I can take it all!
