Luggage is Going Lighter and Brighter!

April 23rd, 2009

Looking at the newest choices in luggage today, you’ll be impressed by the bright colors and lighter weight selection. Bright colors include offerings like the new Delsey Helium Hyperlite that comes in Fire Red, Azure Blue, Fern Green as well as more conservative colors like gray. No black in this Delsey Helium Hyperlite selection either! Vera Bradley has introduced her brightest color selection yet - Purple Punch! This is all of the shades of purple, fuchsia and lilac with lime green as an accent. All of these beautiful colors are against a dark chocolate brown background with dark brown patent leather PVC piping and handles! The Vera Bradley luggage is also lined with a different pattern in a coordinating but not matching pattern. Talk about bright! You’ll also love the newest Tumi luggage colors. Besides the traditional black, Tumi is now available in bright yellow and bright red! These newest colors have black trim so they blend in well with your traditional Tumi black luggage. Calvin Klein has wonderful colors of Cracked Pepper and Basil, which is a bright green. The Calvin Klein Soho luggage collection is made of ballistic nylon for durability! The duffel on wheels selection is also bright colored! You’ll love the offerings of a Graffiti print and a polka dot print wheeled duffel with contrasting striped lining. We also have great Turquoise duffels in rip-stop nylon. Vera Bradley and Delsey also make the duffels with wheels in their new bright color offerings. We’re also looking at much lighter weight luggage. Not only do the airlines charge for overweight luggage, but also it’s much easier to travel with luggage that is lighter weight making the pieces easier to handle. Prolite has lightweight ballistic nylon luggage that is a pleasure to lift. The Delsey Helium Hyperlite is their lightest yet in the Delsey collection of luggage. Skyway luggage has introduced two collections that are extremely lightweight - Montage and Vision 2. Briggs & Riley is showing lighter weight luggage and so is Hartmann. Luggage is going lighter and brighter just in time for the busy summer travel season!
