First look at the ITO Cases Pistachio, the most minimal and affordable of this newly introduced line of hardside luggage. ITO Cases Philippines recently sent me the Pistachio in mustard yellow and I get a closer look at the design and features of this carry-on hard case in this video.

This 20″ carry-on version is available for around PhP 10k ($200). It’s also available in larger sizes and other colors. A full on-the-field review is coming soon!

They launch in the Philippines on August 27 and are available for order now on Lazada and Shopee. For more info, check out their website at and their social media: ITO Cases Philippines (FB) and

From this initial look, things I like so far about this hard case:
✅ The design and attention to detail, especially the funky Pebble code lock and custom YKK hidden zippers.
✅ The 4 super smooth and large Peroma silent double wheels. I’ve had more than one piece of luggage break its wheels on two previous Euro trips and it was the worst.
✅ On the inside: the 2x internal dividers and mesh compartments, and the included luggage sleeve, which is made of hardier materials than the usual sleeves
✅ That it just looks good without trying too hard
✅ All at an affordable price point

Info from brand:
ITO (eye-tea-oh) stands for I Travel Original and was founded in Shanghai in 2007. Their suitcases were featured in NYFW and SHFW in 2017 and they’ve collaborated with the British Museum and Jurassic Park. All of their series are named after nuts-with a solid outer shell and delicate inner “heart.”
