New Arrivals: bags, suitcases and luggage

This page brings together the latest bags, suitcases and accessories added to the catalogue, from all brands: backpacks Eastpak and Dakine, shoulder bags Guess, Desigual and Kipling, suitcases American Tourister and travelite. A new item refers to a product that has just come into stock, not a classic being re-promoted.

The new bags and suitcases that arrived this season

Three different things make their way to a page like this, and mixing them up is a waste of time: an entirely new line, a new colour added to an existing model, and restocking a bestseller. Only the first two matter, restocking is not a new item. The new arrivals in handbags and shoulder bags move the fastest, as just one print can be enough for a season. The suitcases and cabin luggage rotate through entire ranges, but less frequently.

• Leather goods: shoulder bags, totes, tote bags, small leather goods
• Backpacks: city, laptop, school, hiking
• Suitcases and cabin luggage: hard shells, soft, cabin sizes
• Travel accessories: toiletry bags, locks TSA, luggage tags

New collection of bags Desigual, Guess and Eastpak

The search for a new collection is almost always tied to a brand, never to a generic product, and five brands in the catalogue focus this demand. The Desigual bags come in shoulder and backpack styles, with prints that change from season to season. The Guess bags focus on shoulder bags, tote bags and shoppers. The Eastpak backpacks, the best-stocked brand in the catalogue, mainly update through colours and sizes, with the shape changing little. The Kipling bags are available in shoulder and backpack styles, like the Kipling Seoul backpacks, as well as Mac Alyster bags in shoulder and shopper styles.

How often do new bags arrive?

Two rhythms exist side by side. Fashion leather goods change twice a year, in spring-summer and autumn-winter, with colours and prints defining the season. Technical backpacks, suitcases, and cabin luggage have a longer lifespan: a range lasts several years and refreshes by generation, when the manufacturer changes the material, the wheel system, or the carry method. Keep this in mind: the vintage displayed in a title means nothing, many pages still advertise collections that are several seasons old. The entry date of the item and the sizes actually available say much more.

New cabin luggage, from size to wheels

This is where a new item is clearly visible and tangible. With cabin luggage, what's different from one generation to the next is verifiable by hand: the shell material, the double wheels that swivel, the telescopic handle and its notches, the empty weight. Our sizes are classified by dimensions, from 40x30x20 to 56x45x25, because those are the measurements companies check at boarding. Before replacing your luggage, compare the measurements stated by the manufacturer, including wheels and handles, with what your airline requires.

Price of a bag from the new collection or clearance

An item that has just arrived is shown at full price: discounts come later, usually when one colour is replaced by another. The decision boils down to one sentence. Pay the current price for the size and colour you want, or wait for clearance and take what's left. The price of each item is shown on its label, above this text, and the new arrivals in handbags follow the same rule as the suitcases. The outgoing models, however, are grouped in our promotions.
