Jet Off In Style With These Trendy Travel Bags
Briggs & Riley
Sympatico International Carry-On Spinner in Plum, £549, briggs-riley.co.uk
This carry-on sized case is perfect for city break abroad, fitting snugly into overhead luggage bins and allowing up to 22 percent more packing space than Briggs & Riley’s previous designs. Choose from a sleek black or rich plum, and get ready for the weekender of dreams.
Carl Friedrik
Palissy Weekend in Cognac, from £695, carlfriedrik.com
Speaking of weekenders, Carl Fridrik’s Palissy bag was created just for them. An all-leather design available in four colourways, the Palissy is as spacious as it is sophisticated – think a large main compartment and multiple zip-up pockets for valuables. It’s sturdiness also guarantees it won’t lose its shape, so you rest assured that you’ll be travelling in style no matter what.
Globe Trotter
Safari Carry-On (4 Wheels), £1,595, globe-trotter.com
Going away for a couple of nights? Globe Trotter’s Safari case is small enough to get your through a short break, and is accepted by most airlines in the cabin (meaning you won’t have to shove it in the hold) and comes in ivory or dark brown. There are also bigger versions of the same design available if you need more space. This is perhaps one of the prettiest cases we’ve ever seen.
Patagonia
Those planning their next big adventure should consider bringing along this duffel from Patagonia. Durable, weather resistant and incredibly flexible, you can carry the bag by its handles or attach straps and wear it as a rucksack. And when you’re done? You can pack it away into a smaller bag (like a pac-a-mac).
Longchamp
Le Pliage Travel Bag S in Multi-Colour, £270, longchamp.com
If you’re craving something a little more colourful, opt for this two-tone style from Longchamp. Available in ‘burgundy and orange’ or ‘grass and light green’, the canvas bag comes with a removable shoulder strap and zipped compartments.
BRICS
46cm Weekender, £329, harveynichols.com
The beauty of this bag – other than its snazzy design – is its easy-to-clean status. Made from sueded PVC and vegetable-tanned Tuscan leather, you can simply wipe off any dirt as it comes. It’s also super spacious – with a large main compartment with a zippered pocket, and drops slots for your mobile phone and keys – and is durable enough to retain its shape after being packed away or folded.
Dune London
Patricio, £90, fenwick.co.uk
Boasting a sleek black design, Dune’s Patricio bag takes understated elegance seriously – and is ideal for those that prefer fuss-free travel accessories. The design is flexible in that it comes with an adjustable shoulder stap, and features a large main compartment for all your belongings.
