Our Heritage

Bred to survive the American Midwest oil fields in 1938, Zero Halliburton was the first to introduce travelers to the strength and security of aluminum cases.

A favorite amongst American innovators, visionaries and entrepreneurs, the brand’s pieces have enjoyed a storied memoir that includes carrying moon rocks from the Apollo 11 mission and appearing in more than 200 films – and holding the names of dozens of Academy Award recipients - along with other notable journeys.
