★★★★★Laptop out in seconds
The front pocket is the reason I bought it. Laptop out at security, case still shut, no one waiting behind me.

Description
Our entry into full-metal luggage. Fine-ribbed aluminium-magnesium shell, aluminium frame, TSA locks.
The Kendal is the most accessible way into a real aluminium suitcase. Fine vertical ribs give it a clean, technical finish; the aluminium frame and twin TSA combination locks give it the security a zipped case can't match.

Why travellers choose the Kendal

- No zip, no weak point — Frame closure with twin TSA locks. Nothing to catch, tear or pry open.

- 360° silent spinner wheels — Four double wheels that glide over tiles, carpet and pavements.
- Aluminium telescopic handle — Solid, no wobble.
- Organised interior — Zipped pocket and zipped divider keep both halves tidy.

FAQ
Is it cabin-sized?
Yes. At 55 × 37 × 22 cm it sits inside the standard cabin allowance of British Airways, easyJet, Jet2, TUI and Virgin Atlantic (56 × 45 × 25 cm). Ryanair's limits are tighter (55 × 40 × 20 cm), so check before you fly Ryanair. Always confirm your airline's allowance before you travel.
Why a frame instead of a zip?
A zipped suitcase can be opened with a ballpoint pen. A frame closure with two TSA combination locks can't. It's also what keeps the shell rigid and the contents protected when the case is thrown around.
What if it gets damaged?
Frame, wheels, telescopic handle and locks are covered for 5 years. Contact us with a photo and we'll sort a repair or replacement. Cosmetic marks on aluminium are normal and part of the look — most owners love them.
How long is delivery?
UK delivery is free and tracked. You'll receive a tracking link by email as soon as your suitcase ships.
Can I return it?
Yes — 30 days, as long as it's unused and in its original packaging.

★★★★★Fits the BA cabin
Measured it against the British Airways allowance before my first trip. Slid straight into the overhead locker.
Daniel M.Verified
★★★★★Arrived tidy
The cross straps keep everything in place. Opened it at the hotel and nothing had moved.
Sarah K.Verified
★★★★★Phone charged at the gate
Plugged my power bank in once and charged my phone through the USB-C port while I waited to board.
Tom H.Verified
★★★★★Smooth wheels
Glides on the 360° wheels, even on the cobbles outside the station. Would love one more colour.
Emma L.VerifiedQuestions

Will the Carry-on fit in the cabin?
Yes. At 55 × 37 × 22 cm it sits inside the 56 × 45 × 25 cm cabin allowance of British Airways, easyJet (large cabin bag) and Jet2. Airline rules can change, so a quick look before you fly is always worth it.
Which size should I choose?
Carry-on: weekends and short trips, straight into the overhead locker.
Check-in M: about a week away.
Check-in L: two weeks or more, or packing for two.
