This is the one piece of luggage every modern professional should own

Made for those constantly on the move, the Émigré​ Hardcase Carry-On, kitted out with a host of smart detailing, will make your transits as fuss-free as possible

Since its 2022 launch, Émigré has focused solely on the modern-day travelling professional, kitting him out with a considered selection of apparel, accessories and bags that ease and elevate movement between destinations. The key pain points that are faced when in transit – whether from the office to the post-work meeting, home city to a conference abroad, or terminal to hotel – are all addressed via the label’s signature hallmarks: a strong use of premium materials and smart features; versatile designs that can easily pair with one another; and muted colourways that’ll stand the test of time.

So far, the Émigré offering has included a Cotton Oxford Shirt, which straddles the smart-casual line; the Four Season Wool Travel Blazer; and the Boston Bag, perfect for the daily commute. It’s latest collection has featured an Aviation Jacket, coveted for its timeless quality, and there’s also been a three-piece Sports Kit, angled for those who maintain their fitness routine wherever they land.

It makes sense, then, that a brand catering to the on-the-go worker should also produce a signature piece of luggage – and the new Hardcase Carry-On, crafted from durable polycarbonate, does not disappoint.

Made for short trips and weekends away, and produced with travel efficiency in mind, the piece facilitates breezy, seamless movement from departures to your seat. Notably, the easy-open zippered front compartment features a removable 15-inch laptop sleeve and zippered mesh pocket for bathroom essentials, therefore minimising the possibility of any fumbling about at security.

Inside, there’s a waterproof section in which you can place used items; an internal compression system to minimise wrinkling on your items; and it’s all lined with 100 per cent recycled Robic® nylon ripstop. On the exterior is a three-step telescopic handle and custom wheels that, when in motion, create effortless movement. USB-A and USB-C ports help make sure that your devices have an extra bit of life, ideal for when you’re nowhere near a power plug. The TSA locking system secures what’s inside. And the matte-black look, finished with Émigré’s ‘accent’ symbol, is universally appealing. In summary: a modern travel classic.
