When Pilot and Travelpro founder Bob Plath invented the first ever Rollaboard by putting wheels and a handle on a standard suitcase, the travel industry was changed forever. Travellers were set free to lighten their loads and save their backs with luggage on wheels.
Since Bob’s invention, luggage has come a long way. Wheels aren’t just standard; they’re expected, and travelers want a lot more from their travel gear–more features, more durability, more options–with less weight. But not all lightweight luggage is quality luggage.
