Swiss lifestyle brand Victorinox has unveiled its lightest-ever hardside collection, the Airox Hardside Luggage Range. The collection is the latest addition to the company’s Travel Gear offer and will be available in worldwide travel retail this month.
The Airox Hardside range is made up of three carry-on luggage sizes, in addition to a medium, and a large suitcase. The range comes in three colourways: orange, dark blue, and light blue.
“Our Travel Gear team spent 18 months developing and rigorously testing the Airox Hardside Collection, which embodies all the qualities for which Victorinox stands for – functionality, quality and iconic design” — Victorinox Head of Travel Retail Thomas Bodenmann
The Airox Hardside Carry-On suitcase weighs a mere 2.3 kg and features an internal butterfly opening system. The system has two divider walls that open outwards, enabling customers to pack both sides of the suitcase simultaneously, without the inconvenience of the mesh curtain getting in the way.
The Airox Hardside range maximises functionality and style. It features a lightweight telescopic monopole handle system, extra-quiet 60 mm Hinomoto wheels, long-lasting YKK zippers, and silent-run Lisof tyres. The pieces also offer a Travel Sentry approved recessed combination lock and access lock combination recovery program as well as a 1 + 10 year warranty.
“Our Travel Gear team spent 18 months developing and rigorously testing the Airox Hardside Collection, which embodies all the qualities for which Victorinox stands for – functionality, quality and iconic design,” said Victorinox Head of Travel Retail Thomas Bodenmann. “With this latest innovation in lightweight luggage, we’re well-placed to capitalise on the steady growth of the global luggage market.
“Representing 60% of Victorinox’s travel retail sales, Travel Gear is key to the brand’s growth and we’re confident that the Airox range will further boost sales in this important product category,” he added.
