"This suitcase, named R.M.S for Rolling Mobility Suitcase, is perfect for a few days away. Its innovative design combines lightness, practicality and compact lines with a nod to the house’s traditional design codes in its leather reinforced corners. This ultra-mobile case is equipped with four wheels, borrowed from Hermès skateboards designed in 2017, which glide smoothly over the ground. In canvas or entirely in leather, the R.M.S is all about comfort, with a curved zip for opening the case out flat with ease, and a telescopic handle. With customisable wheels and handles, its look can be changed at will."
Following are details provided by Hermès on how to use and care for the R.M.S. taken from here.

Personalization
Make the R.M.S. suitcase your own by adding a touch of personalization. There are multiple options available to change your suitcase according to your wishes. The handle can be chosen from a variety of eight different strap colors and seven leather colors. If you choose a leather handle, your initials or a date can be hot stamped on it. Each wheel can have its own color selected from nine shades, any combination is possible.
For all personalization wishes, contact your local Hermès store or our Customer Service department for assistance.
Telescopic handle
Thanks to an ingenious mechanism, adjust your R.M.S. suitcase handle height in a single step.
USING THE TELESCOPIC HANDLE
Position your suitcase vertically and press the upper side button to automatically release the handle from its compartment. Next, twist the leather-covered central section towards the front as far as possible, and hold the position to set the desired height. Simply release the handle, the rotating section will return to its original place with the height now set.
STORING THE TELESCOPIC HANDLE
Twist the leather covered section towards the front as much as possible, hold this position and then push the handle down until you feel a slight resistance. Release the handle, the rotating part will return to its initial place. Press lightly on the handle to place it back into its compartment.
If you feel a locking effect in the telescopic handle, repeat the operation, carefully lowering the handle until finding the resistance point without forcing it down.
The lock
Your R.M.S. suitcase features a TSA (Transportation Security Administration)-approved ultra slim lock, meaning it can be controlled by U.S. Customs with no additional damage. Inserted on the side, near the zip closure, it’s secured through the use of a personal code.
Suitcase amenities
To help you enjoy your getaways fully, your suitcase features a variety of functional amenities. To this end, it boasts a zipped exterior pocket for your travel essentials. In the inside, the largest compartment allows you to arrange your belongings however you like thanks to its generous size. The second storage space, closed by a zippered flap with an integrated additional pocket, houses your more delicate pieces.
Like all bags and luggage, your suitcase has a maximum load. If this maximum load is exceeded, the handle may not function correctly. In this case, we suggest reconsidering the contents of your suitcase in order to take advantage of its full functionality.
The protective cover
Your suitcase comes with a water-repellent canvas cover for ensuring protection when used or stored.
USING THE PROTECTIVE COVER
To protect your R.M.S. with its cover, place the suitcase vertically and pull the cover down from top to bottom to cover its length. Use the two flaps and snap fasteners to secure the cover in place. This can be done whether the R.M.S. handle is extended or closed.
When your cover is not in use, we recommend keeping it stored in a folded and rolled up manner. You may clean your cover with a soft cloth and soapy water as necessary. To remove any creasing, we recommend ironing your cover at a low temperature.
The leather
The external part of the leather (reinforced corners, small edges, borders and sides for versions completely in leather) is made of taurillon Regate leather. This new grained leather, resistant to friction and water droplets, has been specifically developed for your suitcase. As an organic material, Hermès leather evolves and beautifies with time. Always in “full bloom”, the upper layer remains intact and untouched. It becomes shiny and naturally develops a patina when used.
Hermès leather is sensitive to natural hazards: intense heat, direct sunlight, excess humidity or dryness are liable to change its appearance. After prolonged contact with water, be sure to wipe with a soft cloth to avoid streaks forming. Leather does not like excess. Certain materials can leave a lasting mark: ink, lipstick, perfume or even hydroalcoholic gel. Equally, repeated contact with raw or deep-colored fabric risks staining lighter colored leathers.

The canvas
The two large faces of the suitcase are covered in Militaire Sport fabric or printed H Plume canvas, depending on the model. Hermès canvas is particularly resistant and, for an enhanced protection, is water-repellent. To ensure its longevity, it is recommended to protect it from natural hazards. Sun exposure or prolonged daylight may alter the fabric’s appearance and color.
Wheels and metallic pieces
Ultramobile, your suitcase features four wheels, each consisting of two rubber parts for a silent and easeful glide. Thanks to the precision and know-how of a silversmith, your R.M.S. clasps and other mechanisms are metallic pieces made from aluminium and steel.
While your suitcase is not in use, we recommend keeping it in its box or protective cover, away from sunlight and in a dry, cool environment. Regularly entrusting your R.M.S. to Hermès craftsmen is recommended to preserve the original beauty of your suitcase over time. By intervening yourself, with unsuitable products, you risk damaging your suitcase. With this care, your Hermès suitcase will preserve its original beauty and reveal its personality over time.
