We’ve handpicked our favourite items in preparation for the new “Freedom Day”
As every delay in lockdown happens our innate need to travel just continues to heighten and with that comes fresh wardrobes, grooming and everything in between. This year is the year we all make it count.
One particular product we’ve been particularly interested in is Luggage, I mean your for most of us your holiday starts before you even get to the airport, right?
Your luggage is an essential travel item and an investment. Often overlooked by many as an afterthought, your luggage should last you years and so it really should be a considered purchase.
So what makes a good piece of luggage?
Is it practical? How long do you expect it to last? What kind of travelling do we do? Does it represent your personality? These are just some of the questions we’ve asked ourselves when handpicking our favourites for Summer 2021
