Collection: Delsey Alu’r Aluminium Luggage

Many hard-shell suitcases are made from polycarbonate or polypropylene and close with a zip. Delsey Alu'r is crafted from high-grade brushed aluminium and uses a rigid, zipperless locking frame with dual TSA-approved combination locks. Reinforced corners, genuine leather handles and a carbon fibre-inspired finish give it a distinctive premium look.

That depends on what matters most to you. If your priorities are low weight, expandability and a lower price, a traditional hard-shell suitcase may suit you better. If you value full aluminium construction, zipperless security, standout design and a 10-year warranty, Delsey Alu'r offers something very different from an everyday suitcase.

Yes. Aluminium luggage is generally heavier than polycarbonate or polypropylene luggage. The 55 cm Delsey Alu'r weighs 3.9 kg, while the 76 cm check-in weighs 6.9 kg. Remember to include the empty weight of the suitcase when considering your airline baggage allowance.

Aluminium is strong, but it is not immune to cosmetic wear. Scratches, scuffs and small dents may develop as the suitcase travels, particularly when it is checked in. Many aluminium luggage owners consider these marks part of the case’s individual patina. A protective suitcase cover may help reduce surface scuffs, although it cannot prevent all transit damage.

A zipperless frame removes the zip as a potential weak point and avoids problems such as snagged or broken zips. Delsey Alu'r closes with a precision locking frame and dual TSA-approved combination locks, making casual tampering more difficult. However, no suitcase is completely theft-proof, so important documents, medication and irreplaceable valuables should always be kept with you.

The 55 cm Delsey Alu’r measures 55 × 35 × 23 cm and is designed as a carry-on suitcase. However, cabin baggage limits vary between airlines, fares and routes, so always check your airline’s current size and weight allowance before travelling. Delsey also advises checking directly with the airline because cabin policies can change.
