Pacsafe
Venturesafe EXP34
A suitcase like a safe
When you make a long journey, like to Western Canada, it’s pretty convenient to have a big bag. The Pacsafe Venturesafe EXP34 has no less than 106 litres of content. More than enough for all your stuff and for souvenirs to take back. But that’s not what makes this safe-like of a roller case so special. This is a bag that can’t just be opened or stolen. Equipped with 360° eXomesh, a steel cage in the material, it can’t be cut open. There’s powerful locks on it. It is reinforced with Dyneema, the lightest and strongest material in the world (15x stronger than steel, but floats on water). And there’s a steel cable in it that allows you to secure the bag. Probably the very best roller case on the market. € 349,-
