Pelican 30" ATX Check-In Hard-Sided Luggage

The closest thing to a protective equipment case that still rolls like a suitcase. The injection-molded shell closes with metal latches and a sealing gasket in place of a zipper, and Pelican designs the wheels, latches, handles, extension handle, liner and gasket so owners can replace each one themselves rather than shipping the whole case off. Pelican's limited lifetime guarantee covers breakage and defects in workmanship, though owners pay the freight on warranty returns and claims are barred after abuse or accident. Weight is the obvious trade-off. At roughly 22 to 24 pounds empty, depending on the listing, it is about double the polycarbonate cases here, so it suits fragile gear and travelers who rarely pack full.
