That meant that I had to keep my laptop inside the case but due to its clamshell design, whenever I passed through security it was a pain to get the laptop out.
The clamshell design is my main complaint. You can't live out of polycarbonate suitcase because they don't fit on the luggage rack hotels provide
( because the bag is in 2 equal halves, half your stuff is in the "lid" unlike a conventional soft bag )
My check-in luggage consists of a Rimowa Salsa
and started selling the more expensive double-rail handle one.

...
But the quality feel ... the zips slide so smoothly...
And great ergonomics.- Exterior handlebars for flat internal surface facilitates packing.
- Pouch between handlebars where my headphones will fit
The zippers ROCK. And the exterior rails for the telescoping handle is the way every bag should be made as it appears to be common sense.HUGE AL

I wonder if Rimowa stopped them from doing it. They're so much more expensive here than in the EU. The rimowa store in KL knows me - as someone who only comes to look, but doesn't buy. For someone who doesn't buy, i seem to have a lot of rimowas to repair
