Ah amazing, glad the review was helpful and a bit jealous, I really wanted the Grey/Cognac but wasn't available at the time - i'll be orderring one later in the year 😎
Good video. Could I recommend that you get a microphone system when you record your straight to camera pieces, as the audio is feint. The Rode or DJi remote models are both very good and you can clip the transmitter until to a lapel without the need for an additional lavalier mic.
Hi There, thanks for your kind words and feedback - audio is definitley something i need to learn and improve, 100% - I actually have the DJI Mic (1st one) which I use for most of the voiceover - i've never got along with it (know how ot use it properly) going straight into camera with the transmitter - I am planning on getting the DJI Pocket 3 with DJI Mic2 soon for talking head and vlogging, hopefully the sound from this will be greatly improved. Thanks
Hi Brandon, thanks for your comment and sorry for the delayed reply - this jacket is a linen field jacket from Moss Bros (UK brand, not sure if they sell internationally or not) - i got it as part of a suit and now have it as part of my full time travel wardrobe, I love it. Thanks, Dan
Thanks for your review. Are the dividers removable? What are your thoughts on the sturdiness of the telescopic handle and wheels? (i.e. Does the handle wobble? What materials are they made from?) I heard from another reviewer that the rubber silent wheels create more friction when rolling on low pile carpeted areas compared to some other luggage brands.
Thanks for your comment - so the handle is the most sturdy i've seen on any luggage, Carl Friedrik really took on feedback from the carry-On X and improved this, I can't praise this enough and should have mentioned that in the video. It's a very solid, it doesn't wobble and I guess it's steel - feels very premium. And the wheels, well, I think I mention them in every luggage video haha, like the Carry-On X the wheels are exceptional, but yes, it's true they add friction on carpetted areas, I started to notice this when wheeling them inside of hotels recently.
Hi There, yeah absolutley - I am travelling with it in Thailand right now, it definitely gives the feeling of old worldly, golden age of travel - i really love it. Size profile is better than the average check-in size when taking it in taxi's and moving around with it, footprint wise it has similar dimensions to a carry-on, just taller.
I'd love to, but as i'm not a monetized channel I'd need Rimowa to reach out to me at this stage. If they do, i'd love to review it. I am reviewing an affordable aluminum carry on from another brand in June, stay tuned for that.
I just received my trunk in grey and cognac. Thank you for your fantastic review, it was very helpful for my upcoming ten days in Bermuda. Cheers!

Great video! Think I'm going to pick one up. Also, can I ask what jacket you're wearing in the video? Looks great!

Do you think the trunk is more stylish than the original check in?

review the rimowa original trunk xl pls

Rimowa now is insanely pricey.
Zero design!
I disagree, I love the design of this and it's great to travel with, I have it in Asia with me now as my long term travel suitcase.
