bring me a bric

Tired of lugging around your sad, beat-up luggage?  Perk up your holiday and pack your belongings into a BRIC’s travel bag from Milan. Classic yet chic Italian styling plus top quality materials make this our choice for a perfect companion for that rejuvenating year-end getaway.


If you travel a lot and practically ‘live’ out of your luggage, you need to invest in a good piece that will take the beating of air travel handling. Here’s our Quick-5 Checklist when choosing a bag:

1) Go for recessed wheels that are less likely to be damaged and will last longer.
2) For soft or semi-soft luggage, nylon or ballistic nylon is stronger than polyester. Look for a tight and dense weave or high denier (thicker fiber).
3) Choose the new, self-repairing synthetic zippers over metal ones. These can self-repair when the slide is moved over the teeth.
4) Choose a handle that locks down so it won’t be damaged when you check in the bag.
5) Make sure there is a long warranty period - that is a good indication that the manufacturer believes in their product.

 
Pack it all in and travel in savvy, Italian mode. See what’s in style here.
