MERCURIUS SMALL
South Africans have grown to love Cape Union Mart and K-Way products for many reasons, and the top-of-range Mercurius ‘Small’ gives you one more to add to the list.
If you’re planning on taking only carry-on luggage with you on your flight, this 31-litre polypropylene hard-shell case is a safe, sturdy and good-looking option. Measuring 55 × 23 × 37 cm, and weighing 3.2 kg, it swallows up and protects your treasured belongings and still easily fits in the plane’s overhead stowage compartments.
It has an integrated three-digit TSA-approved locking clamp, as well as two additional clamps
– on the top and bottom – to prevent the case from popping open on its own. The four wheels, together with the telescoping handle, give it 360° manoeuvrability, so the bag won’t hinder you during hurried transits through the airport. There are two packing compartments inside (the main body space, and one in the lid), as well as a zipped mesh pocket.
This is the smallest case in K-Way’s Mercurius luggage range, so you can invest in the 60- and 109-litre hard-shells, with the same look, feel and functionality, to complete the set.
