Is Rimowa Luggage Worth It? Packing my Carry On and Vlogging around NYC.

[@carlosdeleon6472]

I found my Rimowa cabin at a thrift store for $50 bucks 😊 it has a dent but it gives it character ❤️

[@DevilCruz13]

You basically got it for free!

[@kaskahea1274]

Awesome 👏🏽

[@MC-kl5mp]

monos for checked bags, rimowa for carry on. Idc about the 'well traveled' look... too ocd for that shit.

[@SerkanEvrim-e5d]

RIMOWA is sort of in a class of its own in terms of looks. Functionality wise, I wish one side was zippered instead of both compression because sometimes when you close it, things fall out or sometimes it can get caught when trying to close the suitcase (annoying when your in a rush). As for the aluminum shell, it's definitely prone to scratches but If you're worried about them - get yourself a clear custom fitted BLU341 clear cover (so many people have asked me where I got mine during my flights). Thank me later :)

[@HunterDimaio]

I have been really enjoying your luxury video’s keep it up!!!

[@jayhawk09]

that early morning scene in your apartment was a gorgeous shot. the lighting and interior design are a vibe!

[@willhansen1737]

Zoey low-key letting everyone know who the real boss of this operation is.

[@ohitsROME]

The Robert Barakett shirts are truly amazing quality- I always try to stock up w/ new colors every Nordstrom sale!

[@BaeyanEnji]

The lighting in your living room in this vlog is just 💯 As always love the vibes and keep up the vlogs 😊

[@ArizonaLuxe]

I just absolutely love your apartment! Just know that you as an influencer is working - LOL! I just purchased the Philips Hue Signe for my olive tree and a replica of the Serge Mouille lamp (I couldn’t find a store I was familiar with to purchase an “original”). Thanks for sharing, I always look forward to your videos!

[@Brian.lungwarrior]

Another great video ! I still can’t believe you’re new to KZbin! I always look forward to your next video. Thanks for the great review of the Rimowa. I’ve been torn between it and the LV Horizon. Rimowa it is!

[@itstuelo]

Beautiful home Ben, thanks for sharing parts of it.

[@tazsiark]

Love your blogs and Jack’s wife Freda espresso martinis and green shakshuka are my favs !!

[@jordanwright2508]

Agree on Robert barakett 10/10. Thanks for the awesome vlogs lately. Keep it up!

[@kathrnbelmont]

Love when you provide background in your ecomm business and CRO testing! Hope you can sprinkle in more tidbits overtime

[@MesudeSoner]

The TUMI x KIth collection seems so cool

[@worktime1143]

I totally miss a place I used to shop called Century 21 which was located in the South Street Seaport area.

[@EduardoHenrique-nd1ro]

Amazing vlog, Ben! Thanks for sharing! Cheers from Brazil!

[@judithrivera4087]

Great video!! Have a great time in Florida.

[@jordarnnahleigh1447]

P.s please show us some cool spots in new york city to go! i am planning a trip for this year

[@73ocampo]

Hello, with the traveling. Do you have a private care taker for Zoe? When we went to LA I had to look for a person for my dog, I really want him to be safe and sound w/peace of mind on my trip. Going to Seattle in May myself. Thank you so much for the videos.

[@thebrazilian-guy]

Hi, honest opinion: for carry on go for a mor practical open and close luggage, softer to squeeze in the plane, and lighter, like a Pegase 55. For checking in luggage, an aluminum, non zipper Rimowa is great

[@darylwardsnyder4406]

Agree with you on so many, many things. You have great taste and source your purchases from my favorites spots, especially Mr. Porter. However, gotta disagree with you on Rimowa. Briggs & Riley also has a lifetime warranty at half the price. And given that I’ve traveled for 30 years I know from experience they stand behind their products. Enjoy your trip! Naples?

[@danielintheantipodes6741]

Another factor to consider is how often we travel. Thank you for the video!

[@mothusiyane7918]

love your content

[@Shostakovich33]

🧐 deets on the toothbrush holder please. Also, I asked about the Rimowa a few months back and decided to invest as a xmas gift to myself due to your response. Thank you 🗯

[@HaticeUmit-m8s]

Can't wait to get back to NYC

[@gleethomas1]

Yes, Rimowa is worth it! The big trunk is on my list. I hope you took the lighter jeans.

[@73ocampo]

Zoey is so pretty!

[@pcelsius]

would you show us more about the flight experience? Thanks for the video!

[@irezz00]

You should do a Q&A Ben! We would love to learn more about you! Or as much as you’d love to share lol

[@milongroup9902]

Love your content oh so much! 🙌🏽👍❤️

[@bocchicchiotwo]

I got the Carl Frederick carry on it’s nice. Nice. I’m going to Europe in a couple months taking it for the first time I intended over that too at times but this time Not your videos help me to pick what clothes to bring. Are those T-shirts you mention great for everyday wear ?

[@athinimagodla3295]

Awesome vlog! Was this on your new DJI?

[@michaelericmallari]

Great video! Can’t wait for the next one. Hopefully it;s about your travel 😊

[@trixy270]

Great vid.. you have good taste. where's your hoodie from?

[@ralphcasillas1194]

😅 my BF and I gasped when you said BF! Congratulations ❤ #loveisintheair ❤

[@adamf3120]

I just got an original cabin but these 'flex dividers' are such an odd design. Good that they compress your clothes, but odd that the entire 'block' just slides and moves around as you try to close it 🥲 ... Do you have any tips or tricks for what works for you?

[@StravoZ24]

Am I the only one that feels a beat up Rimowa is a flex.

[@marknv8]

Agree

[@lordrobert12]

Ben, our worlds collided! I am also going to Florida tomorrow, and I also bought toothpaste. I use Marvis toothpaste that is made in Italy. Unfortunately, it does contain sodium laureth sulfate!, but it is great. My luggage is from Globetrotter!! Take care, ❤❤❤ Robert

[@raroshraj]

How have you never had to check in the cabin plus?

[@BenTaylorNYC]

Lucky!

[@scnupe7]

Where’s your bedding from?

[@harivonwintr]

really wish you made this video 3 weeks ago when I was deciding if I should buy one or not. I ended up not buying one because of so many people having different opinions and they don't sell them where I'm currently at ( cape town ) I'll have to wait until I'm back in Europe or the US.

[@jordarnnahleigh1447]

Awesome video! my favourite one yet :)

[@VanWatches]

The rimowa for an overhead carry on is decent esp if you get one on sale, even more at duty free. I would not have a rimowa check in though

[@Schultzand]

What all went into your iced coffee drink? Always looking for more inspiration 🧊 ☕️ 10:08

[@Chennylou]

I always pass by Jacks Wife. This is my sign to step in and try it lol.

[@Jgutin1]

Is that a small or regular Nomatic toiletry kit?

[@NathanSchwermann]

😂😂😂 just bought Gucci slides on vacation and yes foot within 10 minutes I could not walk.

[@karina_3000]

Que fofo ele escolhendo os looks para sua viagem,😍se eu ver essa cena com meu marido minha mala sairá toda errada🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@hxrpreet]

You mentioned you have a Cabin Plus which you never had to check it and taken it as carry-on. Based on the measurements I've seen it looks like it over the limit of a lot of airlines. Do you think you've just got lucky? Or is it some other factor? (e.g. You pay extra for carry-on, only flying on certain flights/planes, etc). Thanks!

[@judycabacang]

Did your cabin plus fit very well in cabin in any airlines like Emirates?

[@MattHeron]

hi ben can you please tell me where the grey chairs you have in your living room are from? we are doing an overhaul on our house and need them. thanks

[@BenTaylorNYC]

Hey! They're from Design Within Reach, the Pacha chair

[@MattHeron]

@@BenTaylorNYC stunning thanks

[@hoteltesla]

While I like how RIMOWA looks like, I still don’t get what is “luxury” about it? And aluminium is so heavy. I switched to 22” hold-all around 2016 for everything - travel (the longest I travel with it was 9 months, though unplanned), office work, gym when I travel, and it seems to me hold-all is the fastest and the most convenient way of travelling without check-in luggage anywhere

[@eberhwang23]

Peanut Butter MidDay Squares are the bomb!

[@mbkowski]

Will the cabin plus fit in the overhead on United flights?

[@juanimartinez4946]

We have the same shoes!!

[@tommycall355]

where did you get the cherry tee?

[@icon_ic]

How do we visit and shop your site? xoxo

[@dipack999]

I have two carry on Aluminium one of them is classic with leather handle I have also check in large Aluminium what is your take on Trunk . Do you have vlog on trunk. Cheers from London England

[@jasonkatada1583]

No packing cubes ?

[@craigarth]

So would have go e the light jeans rather than dark

[@milongroup9902]

“Flarda” aka Florida 😂❤

[@umq5147]

I was always told you had to check in the rompes carry on plus. Is this not true? I have the reg check in and need a little more space. My rompes carry on is always too big

[@jettsetter800]

I love my rimowa classic suitcases, but they are so heavy. That's the only con.

[@eddieg6436]

It never fails, you put your carryon up above, then some IDIOT later crams their pos carryon next to yours, denting, or scratching it. (Rarely is there a flight without me snapping at someone). …….Hoping we get a Florida travel video soon!!

[@tanyet]

Not really an investment. It goes down in value. Love the channel!

[@Eyexzaa]

I think it's time you spoke about a little more about your personal life and business 🦁

[@CourtneyNoble]

Agreed!

[@lhflh5565]

Super agree. Background, Life Experience, Romance, initial interest to fashion n tech, etc

[@milongroup9902]

😂😂😂

[@scnupe7]

I disagree. He’s already spoken about what he does for a living. If he doesn’t want to reveal more, why should he?

[@gleethomas1]

Nope! Don’t do it, Ben! Keep that shit separate.

lol. The name dropping is insane. INSANE.

Ben I love you and your vids - but I highly recommend using preparation H on your eye bags, it'll really help! Xxxxxxxxx

[@roninterrupted]

Just a tiny bit of it will do wonders!

[@BlackKing89-l1u]

I might be really poor..cause it’s my first time hearing about Rimowa bag🤔

[@TripsMarJar]

I like your videos , but they’re all over the place . It’s like watching 10 different videos

[@DevilCruz13]

Yeah you’re right. I came for a packing video and got a day in the life.

[@MIZRAIM1906]

So you start talking about Rimowa at 1500 or so and then you call Rimowa luggage “Bags”… get this correct sister

[@strongbraveloud]

Ugh the Bloomingdale’s in SoHo is DAUNTING. I don’t know what it is but It’s such a strange vibe.

[@carlosdeleon6472]

20:23 where is your bedding from? Specifically your duvet!

[@sebwarren9892]

For me Ben Taylor could be an American gigolo or Patrick Bateman . I'm joking.😂

[@mongolian50cent]

i don't make money at all but i recently got rimowa bag which i saved up for 7 months and i don't regret it, it's so smooth.

[@Woodyinnewjersey]

And do you know that Rimowa is owned by none other then LV

[@gleethomas1]

Another pair of sandals that eff your feet up…Bottega flip flops!

I like MONO luggage .

[@debbebuhat]

Your title in all your vlogs are wrong…you talk about other things before the subject itself…confusing and not direct

[@LAlbertSuarez]

Disagree about Rimowa. I have the silver carry on and I instantly regretted buying it. I really wish I had bought one before the LVH acquisition. . The wheels are great but I think the handle feels cheap and unsteady. Also, and this is my personal feeling, but the bags are so ostentatious. I really did not like the attention it drew to me while in transit. Taking it to developing countries like Vietnam especially made me feel like an asshole. It made me realize that I much prefer a cheaper bag that draws less attention and if I do spring for something luxury, I prefer something more understated.

Not to be that guy, since only one of us can actually afford it...but its pronounced with a V instead of a W. Its a german brand. Same as Loewe.

It’s not an investment. It will get banged up and look like shit. Get a Briggs
