I didn’t know much about RIMOWA luggage before I started working with them nearly five years ago, RIMOWA came to Middleton Group to help develop their window displays for their North American Stores. I can’t express how fortunate I am to work with this group, everyone from their marketing department to their store managers are amazing. I’m a firm believer that great companies create great employees. This inspired me to learn more about the product and the brand.
My Salsa Deluxe Cabin Multi-wheel- in Yachting Blue 
Form follows function – I love traveling with my Salsa Deluxe, I tend to travel as light as possible and this case is ideal for weekend trips but in fact, it is the only piece of luggage I used for an 8-day trip to Italy last summer. The multi-wheel system helps navigate the luggage in any direction on nearly any surface, even through the cobblestone streets of Rome. The interior makes good use of space, and the materials are strong and durable. I could to separate my clothing and secure it with their divider system. The telescoping handle feels strong and gives you confidence that it won’t break. The built-in TSA lock (a RIMOWA first) is easy to use and incredibly practical. Overall this luggage performs like a high-end luggage should, and once you feel the glide of these wheels, it will be hard for you to go back.
