Sterling Pacific Aluminum Luggage

Is Rimowa still the best aluminum luggage out there, or is there something better now? The top competitors I think would be Zero Halliburton, Tumi, Aleon (maybe?), and Lufthansa's Worldshop Aluminum collection, but curious what other people think

Edit: have also heard some good things about FPM Milano
I have reviewed, compared and traveled with what I consider the top brands. Zero Halliburton and Sterling Pacific. I have also reviewed Rimowa. In addition I reviewed the aluminum series for NoblTravel which is a budget brand. Simply stated, No one comes even close to Sterling Pacific. Build, Materials, Craftsmanship, warranty, and unique Aviation Retro Astetics. I personally own Zero Halliburton Pursuit 39-liter Carry-On & 90-liter checked. I also own the Zero Halliburton Heritage series 34-liter carry-on. In Sterling Pacific, I own a 40-liter carry-on and a 90-liter checked bag. Hope that helps. Travel well and enjoy every moment..
