The “Pocket Liner” series has a front pocket that can be opened and closed with the suitcase upright. This feature allows you to easily take things in and out while on the move, and you can also access the main compartment by opening the zipper inside the front pocket. We have added a new color, Offshore Blue, to Pocket Liner 2, which has an urban yet outdoor feel. [Product Features]

In addition, it is equipped with the uniquely developed “Bearon Wheel (R)” that enables smooth running. Highly durable chrome steel bearings with minimal frictional resistance assist the caster rotation.

It is highly safe because the force is applied evenly to both rear wheels, and it remains fixed even if the casters wear out.

Due to the manufacturing process of suitcases, the handle is often attached to the bottom side, which causes the suitcase to tilt when lifted, making it difficult to grip the handle. Therefore, in order to achieve a natural grip, we have created a slope in the grip section in advance.
