London Brands Update Key Bag Styles
Leather goods brand Troubadour and Mayfair tailor Thom Sweeney have pooled their design skills to create a two-piece luggage range for AW14. The London firms have updated two models, the Suit Carrier and Day Bag, using Troubadour’s handmade vegetable-tanned Italian leather. The suede-lined Carrier (£1,495), which can hold up to two suits and four dress shirts, features leather handles, a folded external pocket, hidden zippered passport pocket and detachable shoulder strap. The larger Day Bag (£1,195) builds on the shape already sold by Troubadour with folded external pockets, reinforced straps and internal pockets. Troubadour co-founder, Samuel Bail, said he was “proud to bring travellers two seriously sharp staples for overnight business trips and weekend getaways”. Luke Sweeney and Thom Whiddet, who found their business in 2007, added: “We wanted to create something that is both stylish and practical for travelling and appeal to our clients who appreciate quality and timeless design.” The Suit Carrier and Day Bag from the Troubadour x Thom Sweeney luggage collection will be available to buy from November at Thom Sweeney outlets including the brand’s London flagship.
