Our brand new ballistic luggage is hand-crafted for us here in the USA! After so many years of traveling for the airlines, attending dozens of luggage trade shows and listening to hundreds of customers describe what features are important to them (and which aren't), we feel we know our luggage! This is the knowledge we applied in the creation of our Tru-Ballistic luggage. Please compare the features offered with other luggage costing twice as much (ore more!). You won't find a better value in luggage anywhere. We guarantee it! Our 24" rolling upright bag offers the following features: USA-made 1050 denier Ballistic Nylon that is tear, abrasion and puncture resistant (far better than foreign "ballistic" fabric); strong, lightweight "honeycomb" frame that is nearly indestructible (remembers its original shape if "crunched by baggage handlers; ball-bearing, in-line skate wheels (strong, low-rolling resistance, space-saving design, recessed for protection); built-in, detachable packing module in the lid for packing suits and dresses virtually wrinkle-free; huge, genuine YKK zippers (the most reliable and strongest available); push-button, locking square-shank handle that is easy to use, strong, and locks in up and down positions (now required by airlines); adjustable hanging straps (so you can carry other small bags hanging off the front; and lifetime warranty. This luggage was designed for the long haul! (24 x 17 x 9"; 12 lb)
