73L expanded3.52kg empty900D polyester2-year warranty, direct only
The medium case in the Rio range — 67 x 39 x 28cm, 73 litres with the expander open, 3.52kg empty. Soft-shell in 900D polyester, which is the heavier weave: most soft-sided cases at this price use 600D, and the difference shows at the corners and seams after a dozen flights rather than on day one.

Soft shell or hard shell?
A soft case gives you two external pockets you can reach without opening the lid, and it absorbs an awkward last-minute item that a rigid shell simply won't close over. A hard shell protects fragile contents better and wipes clean. If you check a bag several times a year and pack clothes rather than equipment, the soft case usually wins on practicality.
2-year warranty, direct only
Every case ordered on this website carries a 2-year ATX warranty. It is exclusive to atxluggage.com — the same case bought through a marketplace does not carry it. Claims are handled by us, from our own UK warehouse.
Buying from ATX
ATX Luggage has been a British luggage business since 1991. Every case is held in our own UK warehouse and packed by us — nothing ships from overseas, and if something goes wrong you're speaking to the people who sent it.
