Vintage Red Forecast Luggage Set

Vintage Red Forecast Luggage Set. These vintage red hardshell plastic Sears Forecast suitcases are in mint condition. The larger case is still in shrink wrap. According to references, Forecast was a Sears brand. There are oval “FORECAST” logos on these particular suitcases. They feature semi-retractable plastic handles with chrome steel handle mounts along with matching chrome steel closures. On the bottom there are four protruding plastic feet that are actually molded into the hardshell plastic case. The design of the feet not only help to provide stability but they also help to strengthen the overall body as they distribute weight much more evenly than single add-on feet. Another feature that points to a much higher quality piece of luggage can be seen in the use of chrome triple hinges to open and shut the suitcase. As can be seen in the photos, there is an elastic hold-down and various organizers inside the case that has been opened. We assume there are similar organizers in the unopened case. There are no breaks, holes, or repairs on these collectible Sears Forecast hardshell plastic suitcases, and the red color will provide a vibrant and fresh look for either functional use or as decorative pieces. The larger hardshell Forecast suitcase measures 19″ tall x 27″ wide x 7″ deep. The medium hardshell Forecast suitcase measures 17″ tall x 24″ wide x 7″ deep.
