About
American Tourister
American Tourister is a brand of Samsonite Corporations and was started in 1933, when Sol Koffler put his life savings on the line to start a luggage company in Providence, Rhode Island. His dream was to build a tough suitcase that could sell for a dollar. By 1945, air travel was taking off and lighter luggage was in high demand. So American Touristerâs Hi-Taper was designed, tapered luggage that was lighter and easier to pack. The 50âs found the company experimenting with new materials to make the worldâs first molded luggage. The distinctive modern design could really take a beating. The concept has since been copied, but never equaled. As international travel soared in the 60âs, American Tourister was the first company to "flight test" their bags with flight attendants from major airlines. It was this research and insight that brought about more innovations like the spring-less, cam-action lock that wouldnât jam. In the 80âs and 90âs, the company continued to design hard-side products, while also responding to the shift in demand for soft-side, durable cases that could withstand even the toughest quality critic, a gorilla.
