In Partnership with Carl Friedrik
It’s easy to understand why durability is one of the most crucial qualities of the perfect piece of luggage. From jostling over uneven streets, to being thrown into the trunk of a car, to being tossed around by overworked baggage handlers at the airport, there is no shortage of tests that a traveler’s luggage goes through even on short trips. It takes hard-working materials and well-planned design for a piece of luggage to reach a destination looking just as good as it did going into the trip.
That said, even the most durable luggage in the world will get limited use if the aesthetics are off. Which is why Carl Friedrik makes timeless pieces that are both hardy and refined.
The London-based travel goods brand was founded in 2013 with a focus on small leather goods. Today, it’s become a leader among global-minded travelers for its full range of bags and accessories.
On one hand, that’s driven by performance quality that’s backed by a lifetime guarantee: TSA-approved aluminum lock frame, secure polycarbonate shell, silent 360-degree Hinomoto spinner wheels, internal compartments with compression straps. On the other, it’s the pure aesthetics. There’s a reason why the high-profile, jet-setting characters in shows like Succession and The White Lotus rocked Carl Friedrik pieces.
Each item that Carl Friedrik makes leans on a timeless, sleek, and minimalist look that maintains trip after trip for even the most frequent traveler. Carl Friedrik uses a pared-back design for its luggage while standing out with details like Italian Vachetta leather detailing. Base colors of gray or black get a leather accent in chocolate, cognac, gray, or black. That, of course, doesn’t mean sacrificing ergonomics: a robust trolley system makes getting from place to place easy.
These qualities run through Carl Friedrik’s entire luggage line. The brand makes four styles: The Carry-on, a 40-liter bag that fits nicely in the overhead compartment; The Carry-on X, which comes in at 43 liters with a front pocket for a computer or work gear; The Check-in, perfect for longer trips at 66 liters; and The Large Check-in, which has 105 liters of space for extended travel. For the quality and look, Carl Friedrik luggage comes in at an enticing price range of $495 to $745.
There are a lot of luggage options for travelers to choose from these days. Carl Friedrik promises to stand out on all fronts. And that’s a statement the company is confident in with a 100-day trial guarantee and lifetime warranty, meaning there’s nothing to lose in giving Carl Friedrik luggage a spin.
