Salsa is the classic Rimowa, light weight, nearly indestructible, and very practical. When traveling I frequently see professionals and travel savvy users with their Salsa cases. Often you will see travelers with the classic carry on and perhaps another larger one for longer trips. The business case is also popular, it carries a laptop, papers, chargers, and a few clothes for short trips.
Constructed of 100% German virgin polycarbonate the Rimowa Salsa line is lightweight and very strong. Even if the case is squashed it will regain its shape, airport baggage handlers have met their match. The Rimowa luggage collection comes equipped with its own chassis. The Multiwheel system comes with extra-large directional rollers which makes moving this case simple, by either gliding on two rollers or upright in a “4-wheel drive” style. The wheels are very durable. The wheeled designed was tested by the German TUV (A German Testing Institution) for loads up to 139 pounds (60 kg.) and still rolled comfortably.
A strong lock is your suitcase’s security system. To protect against damage, the sturdy lever bolt locks are recessed into the suitcase frame. The lock casing is made of hard metal and is practically indestructible. The automatic opening mechanism can be activated only with your personal combination. Equipped locks developed for the Transportation Security Administration (TSA). They can be opened by USA customs officials. The zippers are very rugged and of the highest quality.
Rimowa is so popular it has created its own folklore. Every Case Tells a Story is a short video on a a traveler who is having a rough day. Dogs even like to ride on them Dog Riding a Rimowa. Bear's don't like them so much (the bear was not hurt in this video).
