The ad has a picture of a smiling lady dressed in a red dress and wearing a Christmassy cap as she easily holds up a Men’s Journeyer suitcase at arms length and a Men’s Quick Tripper in her other hand. The headline urges you to “give the amazing new luggage that’s Finger-light” and the description talks about the magic lightness of magnesium.
