No
matter what anyone says you can’t travel without some kind of
accessory. Whether it be suitcases, suit bags, brief cases or money
pouches you will always carry some kind of travel accessory with you.
The travel accessories say a lot about the life and personality of the
person carrying them. Depending on the style and color of their travel
accessories, and indeed what particular accessories they are carrying,
you can gain insight into what country they are from, whether they are
happy, outgoing and energetic or rather old fashioned, whether they are
well off financially or have little money to spare and a myriad of
other details.
The buying team at Mori Luggage and Gifts recently returned from the
Travel Goods Show in Washington, D.C. - the largest exhibition of
travel accessories and leather goods in the world. For three days,
buyers walked the aisles seeking the hot new trends in luggage,
briefcases and travel accessories.
President of Mori Luggage and Gifts, John Mori, said the Travel Goods
Show was an excellent opportunity to network with other businesses who
also manufacture travel accessories.
“The Travel Goods Show allows us to meet with all of the
leading manufacturers in our industry,” he said.
“With the improving economy and travel increasing, we were
pleased to discover lots of new, innovative travel products for 2004.
Our customers expect us to always have the newest items that make
travelling easier.”
Mr Mori said manufacturers of travel accessories such as luggage,
briefcases and leather goods were responding to consumer demand for
bright colors - especially when it comes to women’s business
cases. While black will always be popular, fashion-conscious
businesswomen can now pick a different color briefcase for each season.
The Lodis Audrey Capri Brief has been tipped as a hot seller for spring
and summer. Available in salmon and periwinkle, this beautiful brief is
constructed of fine-grade Italian leather and features a streamlined
exterior, organizer pockets for cell phone and business cards, and a
removable shoulder strap.
The Zuca MobileLockerTM is a super-durable, lightweight rolling case.
It was designed by a mom who couldn’t stand to see her 4th
grade daughter lugging 50 pounds of books each day and developing back
pain so early in life. The main compartment holds books and important
gear and can be used for school, picnics, or airline travel. The top is
so strong you can use it as a seat and the magneto LED wheels actually
light up as it rolls. It’s an excellent travel accessory that
is suitable for a wide range of uses.
One of the most interesting developments in luggage and travel
accessories is the 22” Transformable Upright from Briggs
& Riley. Either use it as a one-piece rolling carry-on or
transform it into two separate bags: a deluxe duffle with optional
backpack straps and a wheeled carry-on upright. Once the duffle is
zipped off, a face panel zips onto the wheeled upright creating a new
carry-on. Each bag can hold 2-3 days worth of clothes.
So just what’s new in the travel accessories industry? Ever
wondered if the airline pillow covers and blankets are as clean as
you’d expect? After all, its one of the most commonly
provided travel accessories you’ll come across! According to
a new company called pb travel, recent studies have suggested that many
are not changed or cleaned often enough. That’s why they have
introduced the pb blanket and pb disposable pillow covers. The pb
blanket is a warm polar fleece blanket that is machine washable and
dries in just 10 minutes.
If you’ve ever flown overseas, you’ve probably
heard of deep vein thrombosis and other circulatory problems that can
occur during long flights. Compression Socks by Elastic Therapy use a
graduated compression system to improve blood flow and relieve leg
swelling and discomfort. They are definitely a must-have on your travel
accessories list. They are also great for walking or anytime you plan
to spend a lot of time on your feet.
Brushing your teeth while travelling or at work just got easier with
the Travelon Toothbrush. Actually, it’s a toothbrush and
toothpaste all in one making it another one of those fantastic and
ingenious travel accessories. Simply twist the handle and refreshing
mint toothpaste comes up through the high quality
Ever seen a sophisticated man who carries his stack of dollar bills in
a rubber band? We found a way for him to do this in style with the
Grand Band from Budd Leather. Each Grand Band features a durable,
colorful band with two replacement bands and a stainless steel plate
that can be engraved. This is a useful and essential travel accessory
for the stylish and professional traveller.
