Suitcases without zippers (with latches)

Without zipper (with snaps)

— the latched design of the suitcase is highly rigid and airtight, making it a good option for transporting fragile items. Such suitcases are usually made of plastic and equipped with three or four clips. The edges of the suitcase are edged with dense rubber material; when closed, the two sides are pressed against each other so tightly that they do not allow moisture or even air to pass through. A combination lock is often placed on one of the latches.
