The Baseline Collection never, ever goes on sale, except for now.

The retail event is effective July 15, 2006, while supplies lasts.

Jim Lahren, Vice President of Marketing for Briggs & Riley says, “By offering our Baseline Collection at unprecedented prices, we’re creating a unique opportunity for consumers to give Briggs & Riley products a try or to add to their current collection. Leisure travel is experiencing tremendous growth, and savvy travelers know that a smooth travel experience begins with luggage they can rely on.”

Baseline bags are designed to work together so that consumers can choose from a wide selection of styles and sizes. With the entire Baseline Collection discounted, there is a perfect piece of luggage to meet every traveler’s needs – from toiletry kits, totes, carry-ons, Uprights^® , to garment, activity and duffle bags.

Some of the innovative features that distinguish Briggs & Riley bags are:

• Outsider Handle™ – This extremely durable handle is designed on the outside for a flat and roomer interior for fewer wrinkles.
• One-Touch Expansion System™ – This easy push-button mechanism makes it easy to expand your Briggs & Riley luggage an extra two-and-a-half inches of space. That means increasing your packing capacity up to 30%.
• Briggs & Riley’s Superlights™ are extremely light for easy travel, and are at least 20 percent lighter than the company’s regular bags. All Briggs & Riley bags are covered by the company’s “Simple as that^®” lifetime warranty that even protects against airline damage.
