If you love watching a TikTok challenge, search Samsonite C-Lite, and you’ll find yourself scrolling through countless videos of people testing the durability of the brand’s suitcases. Samsonite is up for anything. Literally. They’ve driven over these suitcases in monster trucks (we’re not kidding). They’ve dropped them off an 80m cliff (they survived, unscathed). They’ve tried to drill into them with a jackhammer (and failed). You get the point – these babies are born to last.
The C-Lite collection is an uber-chic evolution of the award-winning Cosmolite range that first caught our attention back in 2008. Crafted with Curv® technology and designed in Europe, this collection offers lightness (which as we all know, is essential), double wheels for effortless movement, and a very sleek double pull handle.
Design That Stands Out, And Stands Up
If you’re a colour lover, you’ll never want to look at another luggage brand again. The C-Lite collection features five chic colour options. For the more understated traveller who prefers muted, neutral tones, there’s black or midnight blue. And for those who want a pop of colour, there’s a seasonal drop of fresh colours throughout the year. Think chilli red, deep blue, off-white, pearl fuchsia and more. Next, you’ll notice the distinctive textured grooves on the exterior, that do more than look good – they’re strategically designed to resist scratches, even after being thrown around from multiple journeys.
The real secret behind C-Lite’s exceptional performance is Curv®, an exclusive material that sets a new standard in luggage construction. Typically used in ballistic armour, the material is both strong, and lightweight. The shell’s unique properties allow it to absorb impact and effortlessly pop back into shape.
Innovative Features For The Modern Traveller
Samsonite has packed the C-Lite with features that address the needs of modern travellers. The shock-absorbing, self-reinforced exterior provides maximum protection for your belongings, while double smooth rolling wheels ensure effortless movement and effortless manoeuvrability. There’s also an elongated, strong double tube pull handle to add ease when carrying an additional bag on top of your suitcase.
Security hasn’t been overlooked either. Each C-Lite comes equipped with a TSA-approved combination lock and an integrated ID tag. And as for the tech-savvy traveller, the cabin-sized versions offer a a built-in USB port with a dedicated power bank pocket.
Sustainability Meets Functionality
The luggage’s lining is crafted from 100 per cent post-consumer recycled PET bottles. Functionality is also front of mind. The interior features a large apron pocket, lowered cross-ribbons, and divider pads that make organising your belongings simple. Whether you’re a meticulous packer or tend to throw things in at the last minute (guilty), every item has a home.
Versatility For Every Traveller
There are four sizes available (55cm, 69cm, 75cm, and 81cm spinners), and prices range from $749 to $1049.
A Legacy Of Innovation
With a history dating back to 1910, Samsonite continues to remind us why it’s the world’s leading luggage brand.
For travellers seeking a perfect blend of style, durability, and functionality, the Samsonite C-Lite is more than just a suitcase – it’s a failproof travel companion that’s in it for a long haul.
