The lifestyle of travel is as deeply rooted in the imaginary world of Salvatore Ferragamo as it is an indispensable and fast growing dimension in modern society. Ferragamo Travel, the maison’s first line entirely dedicated to the contemporary globetrotter, changes the rules of Luxury Travel: it’s a collection of 4-wheel trolleys, soft bags and accessories in exclusive materials, all designed for the travel needs of the future. In Ferragamo Travel, avant-garde design and technologically advanced materials meet “Made in Italy” craftsmanship and tradition, the purest expression of the brand’s DNA. Extraordinary modernity, lightness and functionality fuse with timeless and absolutely unmistakable style. In the world of Ferragamo Travel, luxury and technology follow the same direction: innovation and research, functionality and lightness, ergonomic solutions and durability go hand in hand with aesthetic values, exclusiveness, design and craftsmanship - in short, the hallmarks which the brand is known for worldwide. Ferragamo Travel is a complete line of travel products for her and him, designed to elegantly provide for any travel occasion, be it for business or leisure, and any destination, from the metropolis to more exotic locations. The 4-wheel trolleys come in different dimensions: in check-in size (68X47X26.5 cm) and in hand luggage size, IATA certified (57x39x21 cm); plus a line of soft bags and accessories: six business travel bags - polo bag, brief case, messenger bag, camera case, clutch and toiletry bag - and five travel bags, including the duffle (three sizes), the double kit and the tote. Material of choice: PVC printed with the exclusive new Gancino Space design, in the impeccable simplicity of black or a radiant pale dove colour, graced with hand-crafted finishing and leather detailing. Construction-wise, in the assembly of elements and choice of materials and solutions - such as the 360° wheel rotation system – the trolleys draw on the all-Italian know-how of industrial design in the automotivesector. The modern beauty of the logo-print PVC works perfectly with the high-tech lightness of the polycarbonate shell, the strength of the breathable polyester fibre lining the insides, the security of the TSA certified locks and the exclusiveness of detail, such as the ‘40s look leather handles. All of which put together strictly by hand, and in Italy, and subjected to numerous quality controls by in-house and external laboratories. And in addition to the personalization feature, in which the owner’s initials can be hot-stamped onto a name tag, there’s a special Made to Order option designed for the demanding customer, providing a sophisticated array of materials to customize their bags, such as hammered leather, PVC with a new linen print and exquisite alligator. Ferragamo Travel is a way of thinking and living, a project in contemporary elegance with a timeless allure extending to the other product categories, including footwear, belts and small leather goods. Long term travel companions - details of style that last.
