With luggage, as<\/span> with most things, luxury is relative. To some, it means you have a Travelpro Platinum Elite<\/a> (it’s got \u201cpro\u201d and \u201celite\u201d right there in the name!), while for others if you’re not rolling a Louis trunk<\/a>, you’re either doing the quiet luxury thing or you’re a broke boy.<\/p>\n

I am a relative newcomer to the world of very nice luggage, having used a Tom Bihn Aeronaut 45<\/a> for the past decade, until my boss informed me of the existence of Rimowa. It turns out I love Rimowa\u2014I like the brand’s luxe boho vibe, and I love the way the aluminum shell picks up a little seasoning with every trip. But as someone who flies nearly every month of the year, I’m always looking to try a new contender.<\/p>\n

Carl Friedrik is a newish London-based luggage brand that makes bags with distinctive leather accents. Its full-size suitcases suitable for checking run about $800, while a rolling carry-on is around $550. Depending on your priors, these prices are likely to strike you as either very reasonable or borderline outrageous. I can say only that it’s a very nice bag for transporting your belongings.<\/p>\n
