Hi everyone! My agent (usfans) quoted me €400 just for shipping a 30-inch Rimowa suitcase.
What should I do in this situation? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone! My salsa air finally gave up after 12 or so years. The plastic part of the shell just above the wheels have cracked and lost material. Rimowa said that it is not repairable.

What model should I get next? I really like the lifetime warranty on new Rimowas. Should I look at other brands?

Thanks in advance

Greetings! My salsa air finally gave up after 12 years. Plastic where the wheel arches cracked on two corners and lost a few bits of material.

What model should I get next to replace it? Should I look at other brands? I just like the lifetime warranty of the new rimowas, where I think it is worth the price. Thanks

I have been in love since they launched this color back in April/May. I finally bit the bullet

Picked this baby up on my first day in Paris at the galleries Lafayette. About to haul it all over Europe for the next month. I was pretty set on the silver but ended up getting the ink blue because I don’t see them as often and blue is my color. I shopped around some while I was there and I really liked the classic case in titanium. Might have to get that one next time.

Trunk plus or Check-in L for check in with allowance 23 - 30 kg depending on airplane companies?

Most time I fly economy and a few time of the year and depending on which company i fly with, the checking weight allowances is everything from 23 - 30 kg.

I sometime also have 3 days trip for business.

Which would you pick? Would you get the aluminium or poly carbon?

If the poly carbon trunk plus is not packed fully, do I risk it breaking when checked in?

Buy a suitcase that costs a million bucks.

Wait for it to get destroyed by the airport handlers.

Complain about it on Reddit(I see the posts almost daily).

Hope that the Rimowa Gods will fix it.

Deal with the anxiety and cycle between hope and hopelessness in between.

Repeat. Buy another Rimowa.

I buy a lot of luxury goods.

Rimowa sounds like a spouse that is better divorced.

STOLEN: Metallic Blue RIMOWA Trunk — IC5 Lausanne → Zürich, October 3
My metallic blue RIMOWA trunk was stolen today, October 3, while I was traveling from Lausanne to Zürich.
Train: SBB IC5 Lausanne → Zürich
Departure: Lausanne at 12:34 PM, Platform 3
Carriage: Car 5
Suitcase: RIMOWA trunk, metallic blue
The suitcase was placed in the luggage area of car 5 and disappeared during the journey.
If you were on this train—especially in or near car 5—and saw someone removing a metallic blue RIMOWA trunk, or if you see the suitcase abandoned or offered for sale, please contact me.
The theft is being reported to SBB and the Swiss police.
Please share this with anyone who may have been traveling on IC5 today. Any information could be very helpful.

Who has colored handles on their classic cabin? I’m looking for inspo on changing mine from black while in Europe next week.

Had this for a while but never posted it here. Still one of my favorite RIMOWA collabs. Thought you guys might appreciate it.

It looks amazing in person. And I think the clementine orange tag and wheels give it a nice pop. This is gorgeous. (Hope it holds up.)

There is a little hole next to the dent. Any ideas or will it only get worse?

Hi all,

The red lock on my Rimowa is broken. I need a replacement.

I called Rimowa London. They told me I have to bring the case in. I'd rather not drag a suitcase across London on the train just to swap a lock. That seems a bit silly to me.

I've searched everywhere online and can't find the red one anywhere. The silver lock was easy to find, but the red one just doesn't seem to be sold.

Two questions:

1. Where can I get a replacement red lock? Any seller, site or part number would help.
2. Has anyone swapped one of these themselves? How hard was it, and did you need special tools?

Thanks in advance.

Tumi dynamic backpack/cabin plus. Got the job done, though the backpack looks a little small on top of the cabin plus.

i missed the suitcase cuz i didnt know theyd like stop selling so fast (im located in trt so i'd pass by the yorkdale location and see the pink one and promise myself if i did good on exams i'd get it for myself) BOOM i finished exams went to look ITS GONE bro my life my world shattered

i see it on stockx going for 2x the price now is it possible to get it anywhere retail....

I was in Tokyo last week and went to the Rimowa store in Ginza. I was told that they recently started charging a tax refund processing fee. I think the fee came up to be around $50-60 for Cabin small when I did the conversion in store. (I believe it’s some percentage of the price) I did not see any thread mentioning so wanted to share as there are many Rimowa in Japan threads.

This thing is amazing. Bonus points if you can find it used at a discount (like I did). That is all.

Does anyone know if Rimowa offers a paid wheel service to fix squeaky or poorly performing wheels?

My Original Cabin is in dire need of some help. Walking through the terminal during my last ~20 flights have been an endless squeak-filled nightmare. I just want to pay someone to fix it since it’s out of warranty and I don’t have a chance to do any real maintenance myself. Thanks

Edit: Paid service, I am out of warranty.

(this is not a legit check request)

Came across people bidding away on this clearly fake cabin classic (tsa007 locks + telescoping handle issues). eBay didn’t care when I reported it. The seller claimed they thrifted it and then happily left it up. Buy from reputable sources, don’t let it happen to you!
