The new, smart Transcend Backpack 06 Mar 2015
Briggs & Riley Launches New-Look Transcend Collection

Briggs & Riley Travelware

Leading premium luggage manufacturer Briggs & Riley has launched a new-look 'Transcend' collection which includes everything you could possibly need from a weekend away with someone special to a full blown holiday.

As with all Briggs & Riley collections, every product comes with a lifetime warranty; once you have bought your bag, you know that you will never need buy another!  

The Transcend collection, which is deceptively light in weight yet very tough, includes carry-on cases, medium and large cases for longer trips and large weekend holdalls (Duffles).

There's even a clever 'hanging' toiletry bag, and a smart backpack which is designed to be used for everyday activities and, whilst practical in size, is still sufficiently large to hold a 13” laptop.              

Here are some examples of products within the new UK Transcend collection…

Three 'spinners' – carry-on, medium and large; all three bags have numerous clever features to make packing easier and to keep clothes looking crisp, including a mesh lid zip pocket for organising smaller accessories such as socks or ties, and a deep zippered lid pocket for storing travel essentials.  All three bags have Briggs & Riley's smooth rolling, double spinner wheels for effortless, 360° navigation.

The bags are made of two-tone nylon twill fabric which is lightweight, durable and resists wear, moisture, dirt and abrasion and, because the handle is on the outside, it means wrinkle-free flat packing and a greater interior packing space.  Available in black or crimson the bags cost £319.00, £349.00 and £379.00 depending on size.

The Cabin Duffle (holdall) and Weekender are both perfect for a one or two night break.  Stylish in design, the Cabin Duffle is multi-pocketed to make organisation easy and also comes with an adjustable, padded shoulder strap for comfort.  The bags, which are available in black or crimson, retail for £139 and £149 respectively.

The smart backpack can be used for anything from a trip to the gym to a hike in the countryside – in fact it wouldn't look out of place in a business meeting; it even has a padded pocket for safely carrying a 13” laptop.  Available in crimson or black, the bag retails for £139. 

Briggs & Riley products are available online at www.johnlewis.com, at selected John Lewis Branches, Selfridges, Case London and leading independent retailers (a full list can be found at http://www.briggs-riley.com/luggage-stores/international/).
