With luggage In most things, luxury is relative. For some it means that they have one Travelpro Platinum Elite (It has exactly there in the name “Pro” and “Elite”!), While for others, if they don’t roll, a Louis TrunkThey either make the calm luxury -or they are a broke boy.
I am a relative newcomer to the world of very nice luggage after using A Tom Bihn Aeronaut 45 In the past ten years, my boss informed me about Rimowa’s existence. It turns out that I love Rimowa – I like the luxurious boho mood of the brand and I love the way the aluminum shell absorbs a little spice with every trip. But as someone who flies almost every month of the year, I always want to try a new candidate.
Carl Friedrik is a new luggage stamp in London that produces bags with unmistakable leather accents. The full size suitcases suitable for checking around $ 800, while a rolling hand luggage is around $ 550. Depending on your priors, you should either take over these prices as very reasonable or borderline. I can only say that it is a very nice bag for transporting your things.

Carl Friedrik was founded in 2012 by two Swedish brothers, and his initial focus was on leather goods, especially laptop bags and clouds. The rolling hand luggage was presented in summer 2019, shortly before a time of instability in the travel industry Which readers some readers may remember from. Carl Friedrik makes most of his business directly into consumers, although they will see products at highly curated retail locations Like Huckberry. The roots of the brand in leather goods are visible on the hand luggage and the other rolling luggage of the brand thanks to its unmistakable and pretty leather handles and a leather scene strip around the tip of the housing.
Carl Frederik is the type of brand that not only gets itself presented on Consequence But use the opportunity to post An Instagram difference about calm luxury. (“Inherently, the calm luxury aesthetics reject the moods of seasonal fashion and instead trust in a time -appropriate design.”)
Niklas Mattis, who co -founded the brand with his brother, focuses on the protection of THe majestic, but critically endangered by the Amur Leopard. This means that this brand is working hard to curate a mood. I would say successfully.
I have been using Carl Frederik on three trips since December after I brought him to New York, New Mexico and San Diego. It still has to let me down, and although it has been checked once and was thrown into Santa Fe via a small desert rubble, the gray polycarbonate shell looks new. This is in a sharp contrast to aluminum cases of brands such as Rimowa and Tumi, which were developed for the development of a patina.
