The McKlein Difference
The McKlein case isn’t for everyone. Our cases are designed for
edgy professionals who are ahead of the curve. McKlein customers are on the move
making things happen, innovating new ideas and are so in tune with undercurrents
that they instinctively ride the waves of change. They aren’t immune to the
undertow, but they know how to break the surface. They don’t play it safe.
They’re people who aren’t risk-shy and they’re people who aren’t afraid to make
mistakes, in fact they embrace them as an opportunity to grow. The worst thing
that a McKlein customer can say is they were afraid to try.
McKlein cases don’t come in the latest runway colors and they’re
not encrusted with sequins and embroidered poodles. We don’t design cases for
people who use accessories to mark their status. Save the money you could have
spent on other cases of our caliber and buy yourself a plane ticket that gets
you where you need to be or gets you away from it all. With what some people pay
for a case with the Eiffel Tower imprinted on it, they could have gone to Paris.
Our cases are attractive and have a mark of sophistication, but
that isn’t why people buy them. When people ask the McKlein customer about their
case, you can bet it was because the person carrying it has an indefinable air
that makes them stand out. After inspecting them from head to toe and finding
out that, yeah, they’re turned out well enough but they don’t stop traffic, they
conclude the case, of obvious quality and has lent its own air of distinction.
Wrong! Well, mostly…
What made the McKlein customer stand out was the fact that
they’re alive and aware. They are people of substance with their own force of
gravity. We design tools that enable people to do what we have the luck and
ambition to do every day…that which we have a passion for, that which we have
the talent for, and that which makes us want to face the day with our sleeves
rolled up, the pedal to the metal and the windows rolled down. McKlein is
designed for the person who has a sense of their destiny and knows that they’re
behind the wheel and driving change.
McKlein customers move. They don’t run slower drivers off the
road; they go around them with a smile and a wave. If they see someone in
distress, they stop and help because they’re aware that with gift comes
responsibility. They believe in empowering others. Sometimes they seem to walk
on air, but they don’t mind getting their hands dirty for something they believe
in. They identify with being global citizens and don’t feel like the edge of the
earth lies at the end of the sidewalk or where the paved road ends. They aren’t
threatened by exchanging insights with anyone because they can’t talk as fast as
the ideas come and except for those salient gems that resound of vision, today’s
ideas are subject to expire at midnight. It’s lonely at the top, so they take as
many people with them as they can.
Why do these people choose to take McKlein? They choose us
because our cases embody their vision and are just one of the many tools they
use to make vision an every day reality. There truly is no stopping the future
and technology is a clear cut necessity if you’re going to stay in front of the
curve. We aren’t engineering the technology of tomorrow, we’re just designing
the cases to protect and mobilize it.
While technology is only ever going to be as good as the
innovative minds that develop it, we make our cases with the same foam that
athletes use in helmets to protect their brains. Just because our prices are
lower, doesn’t mean we skimp on quality or materials. If it says “genuine
leather,” you can be assured it is the best leather. If it’s ballistic nylon,
you can be assured we used the highest denier we could without compromising
functionality.
Our cases are different. They are crafted with quality, and are
packed with innovation and functionality. They even cost less than the “status”
case. But the McKlein difference isn’t in the case. We don’t claim the case will
change your life but it will make it easier. Our cases spring from vision and
experience, but they’re still inanimate objects. The McKlein difference is the
people who choose McKlein and their drive to use collective experience, action
and vision to mobilize quantum change.
McKleinUSA is a manufacturer and supplier of business cases,
computer cases, catalogue cases, backpacks, luggage, luggage accessories, duffle
bags, casual bags, executive writing pads, and custom requests. McKleinUSA is
something of a revolutionary in the mobile computing and travel goods
industries, with showrooms in the United States, Canada, and Thailand. Working
with world-renowned brand names and corporations for over 25 years has provided
a significant knowledge base for understanding the demands of the industry. One
of McKlein’s key advantages is its 220,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art
manufacturing facility in Thailand.
Headquartered in Chicago, McKlein was founded by Parinda Saetia
in 1997 while she was still attending Babson College in Wellesley, MA. Parinda,
who was steeped in the family tradition of crafting quality cases from her
earliest memory, wasn’t just starting a company; she was continuing a family
tradition. While she attended her final year of college, her brother Chettha
Saetia, a 1996 graduate of Syracuse University, operated the company while
keeping his eye on his dream of designing cases full time. Parinda assumed daily
management responsibilities upon her graduation in 1998 and Chettha realized his
dream of focusing on design.
The McKleinUSA brand was conceived in 1998. From its inception,
the McKleinUSA brand was marked as an architect of progress for mobile designs.
The first case the brand engineered was the patented 12295 Wheeled
Multiple-Access Computer Catalog Case. According to Chief Designer and Vice
President of McKleinUSA, Chettha Saetia, the March 1998 Travel Goods Association
(TGA) show in Washington DC first put McKleinUSA on the map. Saetia chose this
show to launch his innovative creation of wheeled cases for business
professionals, at a time when only wheeled luggage cases were available on the
market. Not only was he the first to introduce wheel business cases to the
market, but he has since designed the largest selection of professional wheeled
cases, in the world, including: business cases, computer cases, catalogue cases,
and back packs.
While wheeled business cases are wonderful for most situations,
they aren’t appropriate for every occasion. That’s why, in February, 2002
McKleinUSA launched the Patented, Removable Wheel and Handle System.
It featured in The New York Times and recently The Los Angles Times raved that
it’s “ingenious!” Custom mating zippers allow you to completely remove the Wheel
and Handle System from the business case; leaving you with a lightweight, more
compact version of the business case. It’s essentially two businesses cases in
one, providing more versatility for mobile professionals than ever before.
Since 1997, aided by her brother Chettha, Chief Designer and VP
of sales, Parinda Saetia has grown a company recognized for excellence and a
progressive brand recognized as the smart choice for the universal class of
mobile professional. The company has grown into a multi-million dollar company
and McKlein USA is recognized as the precocious architect of design momentum for
the universal class of mobile professional.
Today, Marshall Fields customers buy McKlein 3-1 over other
brands and JC Penney, Carson Pirie Scott and other famous department stores are
leveraging McKlein’s reputation to continue providing quality products and great
values to their customers. McKlein is viable proof that applying intuition,
talent, and respect of time honored quality and service to modern demands is
just one recipe for actualizing dreams. McKlein confirms that the American dream
is more than myth and seeks to design cases that embody and enable others who
aspire to attain it.
McKleinUSA has a commitment to provide the best in
functionality, value and quality to the mobile professional. New products are
inspired by the demanding needs of today’s business traveler, as tested in the
field. Mobile professionals can count on the McKleinUSA brand for their changing
needs with a lifetime guarantee on all products. If you’re looking for a
trailblazer in mobile computing and travel goods industry, keep an eye on
McKleinUSA, while they keep an eye on the future.
McKlein's design philosophy is inspired by the demanding needs
of the modern professional. Expert craftsmen design our cases, paying special
attention to the high-intensity nature of modern travel and the day-to-day
business demands of the mobile professional. To appreciate McKlein, one need

Never satisfied with simply meeting standards, we endeavor to
transcend them. Fulfilling needs is essential, but we aspire to anticipate them.

buying from McKlein, working for McKlein or carrying McKlein you are considered
our partner and your success is our success. It is the cornerstone of how we do
business and it drives excellence in every respect.
Though not as obvious as the quality of our materials,
impeccable artisanship or ingenuity in our design, our conviction that we secure
our vision by realizing dreams, promoting awareness, embracing responsibilities
and honoring commitments is what has allowed us to grow our business instead of
build it. We are pleased to be able to support UNICEF and Habitat for Humanity,
but we know our largest contributions lie in leading by example. Our cases and
the people who carry them mirror our company and it is our vision to be
distinguished as the ever-evolving benchmark of success, quality, integrity,
diversity, innovation, responsiveness, and awareness. McKlein’s perpetual
