The present invention provides an article of luggage (20) and a method of construction thereof, comprising a shape defining framework structure (16), wherein the shape defining framework structure comprises two length defining members (6), wherein at one end of each length defining member a portion of a towing handle (19) is telescopically incorporated and at the opposed end is located a wheel (10), wherein a substantial portion of the wheel is housed within the shape defining framework structure. Preferably the wheels (10) are located at corners of the suitcase and the suitcase further comprises a shape defining portion which "rounds off"; the sharp edges of the case and thus providing a more robust construction. Furthermore, having the telescopic handle (19) located in the same vertical plane as the wheel housing makes towing more stable. |
