I think it looks awesome. I won’t be paying $3,200 for a cabin luggage, but for someone who can afford it, it looks very nice.
I’m surprised with all the hate quite honestly. No one is forcing you to buy it.
And they still sell classic luggage. They literally call it the Classic.

I guess to each his/her own. If you're into shiny, bling-bling things, then this is for you. If you look for a luggage that will be actually used and misused, then this is not your product.

You mean the add a bag feature? Do you find that useful? For a spinner, I find that using it makes the case off balance, causing it to fall over. With a spinner, I just place my carryon on top of the case. Most carry on bags have a feature that allow you to slide the bag through the handles. Much more balanced feature.
Do you know of any cases that still offer the add a bag feature? It’s pretty outdated with spinner bags now.

That was the most useless thing that Rimowa ever put on a carryon as I never ever used it all the times I took the luggage all over the world and still do.. You get the same type of jibber on the Camera forums looking to knit pick something that was never ever going to buy the camera anyways but try to find fault.... Have that add a bg on all but the last 2 pieces I had and not a once used it..

I REALLY miss the add-a-bag strap on the Tumi bags of yore! I realize most spinner bags have the carry-on slotted through the handles of the bag but I feel it does make the bag somewhat top-heavy and awkward. Unfortunately I don't even think Tumi makes a two-wheeled bag anymore unless someone knows of one? Innovation is great but change for the sake of change....not so much.
They just sent me an email that there is a semi-annual sale of 30% off all products.

Tumi/Samsonite always has sales and Tumi can be bought at just about any outlet mall worldwide but not Rimowa.. Rimowa has put the clamps to places like that KofferDireck or what ever its called.. Those people use to crack me up with there secret codes of buying Rimowa for 50% off..Yah ok...
