James Bond’s Globe-Trotter suitcase
Now that James Bond: Skyfall has premiered, Bond fever is definitely in full swing and meeting a confluence of end-of-year travel dreams. I’ve often attempted to balance my freakishly anal need for matching luggage and the practicality (in terms of theft avoidance) when it comes to designer suitcases but therein lies the headache: Louis Vuitton luggage while immensely beautiful are a little to high profile and thus attractive to the light fingered; Globe-Trotter bespoke suitcases on the other hand are perfectly nondescript whilst being immaculately designed that I find it serves my needs in addition to Mr. Bond’s needs completely.

Just gorgeous. yet i would have a distinct feeling of sadness, remorse and guilt if i brought this on a trans continental trip and let the airlines handle my luggage.. luggage don’t last long in their hands

Dear Lost,
Yes, lost, ahem, STOLEN luggage when you carry works of art are a distinct possibility. But I guess with all beautiful things, you need to keep an eye locked on your possessions at all times.
I smell a story opportunity here. Do keep a look out at themonsieur.com
Cheers,
