One of the classics, the Original Compact aluminum suitcase has been brought back

I was more thinking of the bling crowd, but you are also spot on.
My aluminum ones are my trusted workhorses, the bling crowd would get a heart attack to see the shape they are in - missing/unmatching rivets, dents, scratches, glue residue from some stickers, frame bent and re-straightened, etc, etc

Kids will have a hell of a garage sale with all my "BLING MINT" Unused Aluminum check luggage i bought over the years. Mine all have the add a bag feature but never ever would have anything to strap to the case... They all still look nice new and shiny..

You can send the Rimowa in to fix the major dents, or hammer it out yourself if youre handy. The other thing is, depending on which countries you travel in, Rimowas might attract harsher treatment or even thieves.
