Celebrated British designer Paul Smith, in collaboration with Globe-Trotter(*), will launch a sustainable luxury trolley-case, in a limited edition of 120 pieces, from April 19th, 2018.

The cases are made using a unique material called vulcanised fibreboard, which is made from 14 layers of compressed recycled paper, cotton and wood pulp sourced from sustainable forests. The suitcases are nothing short of a work of art, so producing them requires some very specialist craftsmanship. The brand goes above and beyond to create the very best product possible, with every suitcase and accessory handcrafted in its UK factory.

Paul Smith has respected the design and added leather corners, each one a different shade: navy blue, ochre, yellow and midnight black. The webbing strips, handles and chapes on the trolley are also adorned with his distinctive Artist Stripe, which was inspired by the colours of impressionist art.

The limited edition of 120 trolley cases will be presented at the Paul Smith boutique in Milan during Salone del Mobile (18th – 22nd April 2018) and available from Thursday 19th April, 2018 online at globe-trotter.com and in the Globe-Trotter flagship stores at 35 Albemarle Street, London W1S 4JD, UK and 5-2-1 Ginza, Chuo-Ku, Tokyo, Japan and also available to buy from Harrods, London.
