What is your return policy?

We accept returns on unused items within 100 days of delivery, free of charge. Return shipping is on us. Choosing the right carry system is personal. We would rather you take your time at home than feel rushed into a decision. Before You Travel With It We ask that you test your Portar at home before taking it on a trip. Once a product shows signs of travel use, it is no longer eligible for return. Here is what we recommend: Take it for a spin indoors, preferably on carpet, to feel the smooth wheels in motion. Pack it as you would for a real trip. Test the compression system, the dividers, the interior pockets. Our size guide can help you confirm the right fit. Leave the lock set to 0-0-0 until you have decided to keep it. Hold on to the original packaging. You will need the box and all included materials if you choose to return. If everything feels right, reset the lock to your own combination and go. To proceed with a return or exchange, please visit our Returns & Exchanges Self Service Portal to download a prepaid return label. Please note that original shipping fees are non-refundable.

International shipping is not available at this time. If you are outside the U.S. and interested in Portar, reach out to help@portar.co and we will let you know when we expand.

Which suitcases does the luggage tag come with?

Description

The Valence set pairs the 20" carry-on with the 28" check-in in Dark Gull Gray. Two cases built with the same aluminum EdgeFrame™ closure, polycarbonate shell, and TSA-approved combination locks. A weekender and a long-haul, ready to travel together.

Both pieces share the same construction. A zipperless EdgeFrame™ runs the full perimeter for a rigid, sealed closure that eliminates the weak points of traditional zippers. Reinforced corners. Telescopic handles tuned for long terminals and tight connections. 360-degree spinner wheels with shock-absorbing springs. 100% recycled polyester lining with a water-resistant wet/dry pocket inside each case.

Save $100 versus buying the carry-on and check-in separately. Lighter by design. Tougher by engineering.

Four Portar Valence polycarbonate shell with aluminum edgeframe suitcases of different colors on a black and white striped surface

VALENCE - ALUMINUM EDGEFRAME™ COLLECTION

LIGHTWEIGHT SHELL. ENGINEERED FOR PACE.

Portar's lightweight polycarbonate check-in suitcase, reinforced with an aluminum EdgeFrame for structure and sealed closure. The shell is made from LG Chemical polycarbonate, selected for its ability to flex under pressure and return to form. The aluminum perimeter frame replaces traditional zippers entirely, creating a precision-close seal that locks along the full edge of the case. Hinomoto Japanese spinner wheels with spring-loaded shock absorption provide smooth, quiet movement across any surface. A check-in suitcase that carries the rigidity of a frame case at a fraction of the weight, with a minimalist silhouette that travels harder than it looks.

EVERY DETAIL IS A DECISION

Every feature exists because travel demanded it. No decorative hardware. No unnecessary compartments. Every Portar case is built on a precision-close frame system. No zippers to snag, split, or fail. Just a sealed closure engineered to open and shut thousands of times.

Frame-Lock Closure

Aluminum frame latches align and seal under pressure. No teeth to misalign, no pulls to replace. One motion to open. One motion to close.

Built for every adventure

Aerospace-grade aluminum and LG Chemical polycarbonate. Both fully recyclable. Both selected to perform under real travel conditions, not showroom ones.

200+ Hand-Set Rivets Per Case

Every structural rivet is placed individually, not machine-stamped on our aluminum collection. It takes longer. It holds longer. Over 200 per case, each one reinforcing a joint that factory shortcuts would glue or weld.

NOTHING WE DIDN'T NEED

Every feature exists because travel demanded it. No decorative hardware. No unnecessary compartments. Just the parts that make a carry system perform under pressure.

Tested Where It Counts

Drop tested, load tested, and wheel tested beyond industry standard. 330 lb load capacity on aluminum. Impact-resistant polycarbonate that flexes and recovers.

Lifetime Limited Warranty

If the construction fails, we repair or replace it. No repair kits. No runaround. One claim process, handled directly.

Wheels That Disappear

Premium spring-loaded spinners absorb surface changes so you don't feel them. Smooth on marble. Quiet on concrete. Stable at speed.

VALENCE INTERIOR

Lighter than it looks. Organized for the way you actually pack.

Lined in 100% recycled polyester. A water-resistant wet/dry pocket separates what should not share space. Compression straps lock the load and reduce sliding inside the shell. Engineered to the same standard as the EdgeFrame™ that seals it.
