Rimowa luggage can often be worth the price when you understand their value. Check out Rimowa and their products here: www.rimowa.com... Classic Cabin S: www.rimowa.com...
The Rimowa became insanely expensive after LVMH bought the company in 2016. Back around 2011, I bought the carry on for about $500. After thirteen years of use case is still in excellent shape and the dings and dents give it 'personality'. It's a pity Rimowa has become a status symbol...I feel like a poser when I take it out now, but I'll keep on rolling for as long as I can because it is so damn reliable.
OMG, I have cheap suitcase and guess what 15 years still fine..... I mean I got the idea of luxury suitcase. But seeing it was thrown up down on the plan and bus. Fk it, rather just by cheap decent suitcase so I don't have to feel bad.
Cost is subjective and I'm fortunate to have made a good enough living as a banker so that dropping a few grand on 3 Rimowa cases did not break the bank. Besides, dings and dents gives aluminum luggage character; that it's been well traveled....like me :;-)
Thanks for this review. I carry a matching set of LV rolling case + keepall (duffel) but that's not always appropriate depending on my destination. For example, business travel where I want to be more discreet. Also, island travel where my bags may get wet. I still want a luxury experience with my rolling case, and this review helps me to put Rimowa at the top of the list for an alternate bag. Thanks again!
A couple years ago or so I bought a custom classic cabin for about $2k usd. Taking it on trips domestically and to SE Asia and twice to Norway. Impeccable performance. It does get more attention wheeling it around airports of the world than I sometimes care for. Probably in part due to the colors (I got yellow wheels and handles for my customization.
i just stumbled across this video and i instantly subscribted to you. This is the kind of content that i was searching for and stay consistent with it and upload more, ill watch it
i have the same one in black i bought in a GOODWILL , i notice your bag and mine have little airpanes on the tabs around the luggage, some people tell me its a fake one, but if its fake its built great.
It’s not a fake and that little “airplane” logo isn’t an airplane but it is the Lufthansa German Airlines logo, which is a crane. They have a collaboration with Rimowa and sell Rimowa luggage with their airline logo on it. Hope that helps.
I highly doubt it's fake because what you're describing sounds like one of the Lufthansa limited editions. If you found that at a thrift store, you hit the jackpot!
Gotta keep it. I've had my Rimowa Topas checkin case (size NFI) case for 16 years, 200-300 flights & a year backpacking with it strapped into a Mystery Ranch Sling backpack, it's never failed. I regreassed the swivel pin/bearing on the wheels. There's dents, some I bashed back in, stickers & flight tags... it's mine. For life. It's a tank. Just sucks LVMH bought it up & now charges more for what seems an inferior product. If I buy another, it'll be an older pre-LVMH one, when the product was amazing & the brand was built on quality, not perception of 'luxury'.
@@vlogaboutnothing more reviews like that, vlogs if you feel comfortable, it's not the video itself, the way you do it it's cool, clean, minimalist, voice, idk how to explain but I just love it
Rimowa sells (or at least used to as of a couple years ago) a sticker book too. Since my classic cabin custom looks so darn good I don’t want to risk tarnishing it yet with sticker decor.

I love the style of this video, and love the Eames as well. Make some more content!
Subscribing would be really cool.
The eames is not original
And this is why i just splurged and bought one thanks!!❤
I want another
I like the no face no case concept. Keep creating as you please. I look forward to more videos and probably will be purchasing a RIMOWA luggage.
You had me at “I like buying cool shit”
Great video format and editing! Appreciate how to the point this was.

I noticed I get different treatment at the airpot with this bag
@@vlogaboutnothinghow so?
I think it just makes people curious.

Great content ! And thanks for the valuable info on repairs.
You are correct….and the wheels are amazing and the handle is amazing.

Love the stickers.
you didn't even mention the Lufthansa badging on your suitcase. it makes it even more rare.
Didn’t want to make the video too long, I thought about it though.
What’s Lufthansa?
Nice video mate.
now watch another one😈

who cares what you had?
close the same setup here. cabin carry on + a lil mystery ranch stuffel
utilitarian is the key word
Classic is a good bag
Dope content young person!
How does someone damage carryon? Checkin will be subjected to all sorts of mishandling, but not carryon
probably didn't happen at an airport
+1 sub, great video, don't stop uploading
What should I do next?

@@unknownperson6876 cool, the next video will be about a chair.
@@vlogaboutnothing that's it, done, you already have another video for us, I'm waiting for it

I might be really poor.. cause it’s my first time hearing about Rimowa and it’s 2024.
@@Zenny89 You don’t need money, just good taste. I got this thing used on eBay.
Serious question. Does it do ok when your sitting on it. I have the classic s as well and I’m so afraid of breaking it.
I sit on this thing at the airport all the time. It's strong and the wheels are replaceable if something goes wrong.
Cool great video just subscribed 😊
Great video
I like cool shit too
Would you go for plastic Rimowa instead of Aluminum?
Aluminum looks cooler and probably lasts longer. Plastic might be lighter to carry, cheaper to buy, but less iconic
Aluminum is timeless
Where'd you get the luggage stickers?
Redbubble
Rimowa sells (or at least used to as of a couple years ago) a sticker book too. Since my classic cabin custom looks so darn good I don’t want to risk tarnishing it yet with sticker decor.
nice vid
Any issues bringing this onboard planes as a carryon..like JetBlue or delta?
I don't fly those airlines so idk
free bag...😂😂😂
what happened to the lifetime guarantee?
fake shit everywhere 😂
If you buy a bag in Europe it’s not covered for repair in North America and vice versa. Mine is from Germany so it wasn’t covered in North America.
sorry bro but this luggage priced now at 1100+$ used to cost 500€ here 5 years ago
Inflation is what its called
:)
Well you can't beat Samsonite and Skyway luggage from the 60's and 70's . Also Hartmann luggage from the 60's far exceeds all Rimowas
Supreme is such an annoying brand... made for Hype Beasts !
Subscibe? Really? There's an R in there.
Mistakes happen. In fact, they happen so often that they have a word for it called a “typo”.
"please subscribe" beggers
yes
You cant spell subscribe
“Subscribe”….did I get it right?
Im looking for a used one, even damaged at a good price. 🥲
