Carl Friedrik Carry-On Review: Well-Made Modest Luxury

With baggage It is luxury related to most things. Some, that means you have it TravelPro Platinum Elite (There’s “Pro” and “Elite”!), You have to roll for others as well.) Louis trunkYou are either a quiet luxury, or a broken boy.

I am a relative new coming in the world of very nice luggage using Tom Bihn Aeronaut 45 My boss is the last ten years until I told me the presence of Rimowa. I like Rimowa, I like the brand Luxury Boho Vibe and I love the aluminum crust is a little spice with every trip. But like one of the year, I always look to try a new opponent.

Carl Friedrik is a new London-based luggage brand that makes bags with different skin accents. Full-sized suitcases that are suitable for checking are about $ 800, a rolling carrier is about $ 550. Depending on your priorities, these prices are likely to hit you as a very reasonable or border line. I can only say that it is a very nice bag to transport your belongings.

As it appears

Carl Friedrik was founded by two Swedish brothers in 2012, and the initial attention was on skin belts, special laptops and wallets. Rolling, in the summer of 2019, was presented before the instability industry in the travel industry Some readers may remember. Carl Friedrik is a direct consumer of his work, although you see products on heavy-made retail sites like huckberry. The roots of the brand in the skin goods appear in other rolling baggage from the brand thanks to the roots, different and handsome skin handles and the skin emphasis on the head.

Carl Frederick is just a brand that doesn’t get himself It is a feature Sequence But it uses to send Instagram title, thinking about the quiet luxury. (“Solid luxury aesthetics, seasonal fashion, instead of trusting design instead.”)

Niklas Mattis, who founded the brand with his brother, is focused on protectingAmur leopard, which is a spectacular but critical way. This is yes, yes, this brand is trying to treat a vibe. Successfully, I would say.

Now I used Carl Frederick to New York, New York, New Mexico and San Diego since December. The gray polycarbonate peel, which is a little desert and wheeled in Santa Fe, which should still be lowered and once the gate, looks new. The patina stands sharply contrast from aluminum suitcases from brands such as Rimowa and Tumi.
