In CHUBONT's softside range, this model answers a practical sourcing question: what does a lightweight business suitcase actually weigh before packing volume starts to suffer? Here the answer is 3.2 kg in a waterproof nylon shell, carried on four sealed-bearing spinner wheels and steered by a three-stage aluminium handle. The same case works as 28 inch spinner luggage for two people on a seven to ten day trip, which also makes it checked baggage only — it never goes in the cabin. The sections below compare the range, break down the specification sheet and set out what to confirm before you request a quote.
Everything a procurement team needs to put this model into a tender document sits in one table. Confirm these figures against the trip profile before you build a fleet order around them.

A soft-sided case at 3.2 kg is not simply a lighter box. Weight, usable volume and structural wear behave as one relationship: reduce one and you usually pay in another. Here is how this model balances the three.
The nylon shell is the reason the case starts at 3.2 kg. Less empty weight means more of an airline's checked allowance goes to the samples, catalogues and suits inside.
A soft body has no rigid shell cavity to fill around. Because the case expands slightly, thick suits and coats can be added at the last minute — the difference behind the 15% capacity claim.
Waterproof nylon compresses without cracking, and the corner guards plus thickened edges take the load shock that would otherwise reach the fabric panels.
Two components decide whether a softside case survives a multi-city itinerary. Both are specified in detail on this model, and both change how you brief a supplier.
Each wheel turns independently on a built-in sealed, dustproof bearing, with a rubber tread that CHUBONT describes as resistant to cracking and wear. The practical effect for a loaded case is movement in three directions — upright, diagonal and in place — without lifting the weight onto two wheels.
Buyer decision: prioritise sealed bearings over cosmetic wheel housings when the programme involves airport transfers, kerbs and cobbled pavements.
The pull rod extends in three stages, so the same case works for travellers of different heights, and CHUBONT states it stays stable without wobbling when the case is fully loaded. Aluminium alloy keeps the handle rigid while adding little to the 3.2 kg total.
Buyer decision: specify the handle stage count in your purchase order — it is one of the few comfort features that is easy to verify on a sample.
The range guide published for this model maps each size to a boarding flag and a trip length. Use it to decide which size a department should standardise on before you look at colour or branding.
| Size | Can I board the plane? | Suitable itinerary |
|---|---|---|
| 20 inch | Yes | 1 person, 1–3 days — short business trips or travel |
| 24 inch | No | 1 person, 1–6 days — short business trips or travel |
| 28 inch | No | 2 people, 7–10 days — overseas travel or a long business trip |
This page covers the 28-inch model. The 20-inch and 24-inch rows come from the same range guide and are shown for sizing context only. Clothing thickness and packing style change real-world fit, and CHUBONT notes that measurement results may differ slightly.
CHUBONT states that the 28-inch size meets the three-sided baggage restrictions of major airlines worldwide, and lists it as checked baggage only. Airline limits vary by carrier, route and fare class — confirm the current figure before you finalise a bulk order.
The stated business load for this case is 4–6 suits, 2 pairs of leather shoes, a full set of office electronics, exhibition promotional material, several days of clothing, gifts and local specialities. That is a two-person summer-to-winter trip in one checked bag, which is exactly why the internal layout matters as much as the 3.2 kg figure.
Buyer decision: for roadshow teams, treat the front document pocket as the reason to choose this model over an expandable hardside — the paperwork stays reachable without opening the main packing space.
Four common sourcing briefs, and the specification line that decides each one.
Spec line: 28 inch · checked baggage only · 3.2 kg empty
One checked case per pair keeps the group under the airline's bag count, and the low empty weight leaves most of the allowance for clothing and equipment.
Decision: confirm the airline's three-sided limit and the group's total bag count before fixing quantity.
Spec line: waterproof nylon shell · double-layered front pockets
Suits travel flat under the crisscross straps while contracts, ties and a tablet stay in the front zipped pockets, protected from rain and humidity.
Decision: brief the team on the pocket split so documents do not end up compressed under clothing.
Spec line: expandable soft-sided structure · 15% more items than same-size hardside
Brochures and giveaways can be added on the return leg by expanding the body, instead of buying a larger hard case that may breach the airline limit.
Decision: order the expandable version when exhibition samples are part of the itinerary.
Spec line: five colourways · OEM/ODM logo printing · TSA customs lock
Colour can separate departments or seniority tiers, while branded printing turns the same model into staff travel gear or a client gift.
Decision: approve a branded sample and lock the colour list before volume production starts.
The LB-101157 ships in five business colourways — black, gray, navy blue, coffee and purple — and CHUBONT supports OEM/ODM work on the model, including printing a company logo for employee travel gear or business gifts. The lock is described as a brand-customised or TSA customs lock, which keeps international security checks simpler for staff who travel frequently.
Buyer decision: if the programme runs across several offices, fix one colour per region so cases are easy to route back after a trip.
Discuss OEM & ODM Options
Pricing on this model is quotation-based rather than listed online, so the fastest route to a number is a short brief. Include the trip profile, the quantity per colourway and whether logo printing is required, and the team can respond with volume pricing and sample arrangements.
Seven to ten day two-person trips, or a different itinerary — state the itinerary so the 28-inch size can be confirmed against the airline.
List the split across black, gray, navy blue, coffee and purple, and whether departments need separate colourways.
Confirm whether OEM logo printing is needed and request a sample before volume production is scheduled.
