Cool carry-on

Steamline Luggage is about putting a bit of class back into travel, says it US-born, Dublin-based creator Sara Banks

Steamline Luggage is about putting a bit of class back into travel, says it US-born, Dublin-based creator Sara Banks. The vintage-styled luggage is also free of any celebrity fans.

The entry-level Editor and Stylist collections are made of canvas and come with leather straps, while the Diplomat series, made from recycled leather, could be a prop in a John le Carré adaptation. All come in carry-on and stowaway sizes and have trolley handles and roller wheels. The carry-on pieces measure 50x32x20cm, fulfilling even Ryanair’s strict criteria.

Nieman Marcus has just snapped up the collection in the US. Here you can buy it online at Steamlineluggage.com. Prices start from €220 for carry-on and €240 for stowaway. You can also order it by email at info@steamlineluggage.com.
