suitcases Logos and Brands
Samsonite, Rimowa, Away, Tumi, and American Tourister define the landscape of the Suitcases section, dedicated to the logos of suitcase and travel bag manufacturers. The suitcase industry underwent a revolution with the advent of wheeled models in the 1970s and polycarbonate shells in the 2000s, and the brands in this section compete for travelers at airports, train stations, and baggage carousels. Rimowa, with its corrugated aluminum, and Away, with its minimalist polycarbonate, represent the two poles of the market, from century-old German craftsmanship to a startup selling to consumers. Suitcase brand logos serve as status symbols in the waiting room and a promise to keep contents safe over thousands of miles.
