  • Luggage - Hard vs Soft Case

    May 19, 2018, 12:01 AM

    I have soft cases and use Victorinox a few years ago had some issues with zips on my Victorinox cases , and the Company who represent Victorinox, replaced both cases no questions asked and had them delivered to my home, now that is not only great service but an excellent warranty for LIFE.
