Holiday season is upon us, so if, like us, you have realised your case is looking a bit battered (to say the least), but you don't want to spend through the nose for a new suitcase, we've got you.
The Range has sent shoppers into a frenzy with its Hardshell Spinner Wheel Luggage Suitcase, which has been likened to Rimowa's Classic Trunk, though it's much more affordable.
The Range's Hardshell Sprunner Wheel Luggage Suitcase is available in three sizes with prices starting from as little as £23, depending on the colourway. Technically you could purchase the entire set, even all three colours – excessive we know, but we need to make the point – for less than a single Rimowa suitcase.
Crafted from durable plastic, this hardshell suitcase boasts 360-degree spinner wheels to make it easy to manoeuvre around the airport. It features a handle with an adjustable height, as well as a separate short top and side handle. It features a built-in lock for extra security and spacious compartments inside. Available in three colours; grey, black and navy blue, as well as three sizes 46, 72 and 109 litres. BUY NOW FOR £23
The Range's Rimowa-inspired design boasts the same hardshell exterior, and textured exterior. While The Range has crafted its design from durable plastic, Rimowa uses anodised aluminium and leather handles.

The high street alternative also features four 360-degree spinner wheels to make it easy to control and move your luggage through the airport, as well as any other surface. Plus, you can wheel it upright, rather than dragging it along, which takes the pressure off your arms.
The handle can be adjusted to different heights and stored away neatly when out of use, though there is also a short top handle and side handle to help you lift your case on and off the luggage belt, which is a similar feature to the Rimowa option.
The Range's suitcase also features a built-in lock that you slip the zip into and lock with your own code, which gets rid of the fear you have lost your luggage key when you reach your destination. More Trending
The Hardshell Spinner Wheel Luggage Suitcase promises to have a spacious and organised interior with compartments to house your essentials, which is always a bonus.
It is available in black, grey and navy blue, and comes in sizes 46, 72 and 109 litres, though some colourways have sold out in certain sizes – and on sale. For example, the navy blue version is only available in the 46 litre size, but it is on sale for £23, instead of £29.
Now, if we are being really picky, Rimowa isn't available in as many colours, so make of that what you will.
Considering the Rimowa Classic Trunk fetches £1690, though it is available in other sizes and styles, it's a pretty penny to spend on a case that will only get thrown from pillar to post at the airport. It's a no brainer isn't it?
