With luggage, like With most things, luxury is relative. For some, it means that you have a TravelPro Platinum Elite (He has “pro” and “elite” right in the name!), While for others if you do not launch a Louis TrunkYou make calm luxury, you are a broken boy.
I am a newcomer relating to the world of very beautiful luggage, after having used a Tom Bihn Aeronaut 45 Over the past decade, until my boss informed me of the existence of Rimowa. It turns out that I like Rimowa – I like the brand’s luxury boho atmosphere and I love the way the aluminum shell takes up a little seasoning on each trip. But as a person who steals almost every month of the year, I’m still trying to try a new competitor.
Carl Friedrik is a new brand of London -based luggage that makes bags with distinctive leather accents. Its large suitcases suitable for checking the races of around $ 800, while rolling hand luggage is around $ 550. According to your priors, these prices are likely to hit you as very reasonable or scandalous limit. I can only say that it is a very beautiful bag to transport your personal effects.

Carl Friedrik was founded in 2012 by two Swedish brothers and his initial objective was on leather items, in particular bags and wallets for laptop. Rolling hand baggage was introduced in the summer of 2019, just before a period of instability in the travel industry of which some readers can remember. Carl Friedrik does most of its activities directly to consumers, although you will see products on highly organized retail sites Like Huckberry. The roots of the brand in leather goods are visible on hand luggage and other rolling luggage of the brand, thanks to its distinctive and beautiful leather handles and a strip of leather accent around the top of the case.
Carl Frederik is the kind of brand that not only obtains featured on Succession But use the opportunity to publish A reflection on Instagram luxury on silent luxury. (“Due to its very nature, quiet luxury aesthetics rejects the whims of seasonal fashion, trusting the place in time design.”)
Niklas Mattis, who co -founded the brand with his brother, focuses on the protection of THe majestic but endangered, Amur Leopard. This is to say that, yes, this brand works with diligence to organize an atmosphere. With success, I would say.
I have now used Carl Frederik on three trips since December, after taking it to New York, New Mexico and San Diego. It has not yet dropped me, and despite being checked on an occasion and being rolled through a little breach of the desert in Santa Fe, the gray polycarbonate shell looks new. This strongly contrasts with the aluminum suitcases of brands like Rimowa and Tumi which are designed to develop a patina.
