To satisfy the needs of today’s road warrior, Ricardo of Beverly Hills Luggage Company looked to their rich legacy of innovation and design, blending tough, resilient materials with cutting-edge packing functionality and refined style. The result is the Ricardo Bel Aire 27-inch Expandable Upright, designed to be as strong and sophisticated as the person carrying it.
Combining design, rugged durability and superb functionality, each Bel Aire bag is engineered with the modern-day road warrior in mind. For example, a tough Cordura ballistic nylon is one of the very best luggage fabrications in the world. Extremely tear resistant and abrasion resistant, the material is ruggedly handsome for the man or woman traveler.
Quality construction is built in each and every component such as YKK Racquet Coil zippers providing the best abrasion-resistance and zipper chain endurance in the industry. Smooth rolling 80mm in-line skate wheels feature stainless steel ball bearings and axles for strength and stability. In the rare instance the wheels would be worn or damaged take solace they can easily be replaced with a screwdriver.
43" aircraft-grade aluminum telescoping handle with Deluxe TRP Comfort Grip locks in for easy push or pull action. Even with all of these tough-stuff features, the Ricardo Bel Aire upright exudes the sophistication Ricardo of Beverly Hills is so famous for. For example, the upright expands to provide 20% more packing capacity. The main storage area features a removable garment suiter with foam roll bars to minimize wrinkles on hanging garments. Take the fixture straight from bag to closet with a durable garment bag hanger. A refined lining and a set of winged tie-down straps in a North/South orientation helps better secure clothes and contents. Internal zippered pockets reside for delicates and accessories.
Leather trim enhances the overall feel of each Bel Aire piece. On the exterior of the Ricardo Bel Aire 27-inch Expandable Upright, a pair of front stash pockets are great for the quick access items and easier passage through security. Two padded grab handles are screwed (not riveted) into the bag for long life and they lie flat when not in use. And oh yes, the handles are made with a special comfort “U-Grip” luxury feel. A bottom grab handle underneath the bag makes it easy to lift and protects the underbelly of the bag.
Today’s demanding world of travel dictates we travel with the best. Our owner felt compelled to interject into our Bel Aire product description by adding the line is a rarity today--a series made to exacting specifications with only the very best components that include legendary Cordura Ballistic Nylon. Indeed, your luggage investment will pay dividends for years.
