Product Details
The world's first vulcanised fibreboard suitcase made with an aluminium frame.
The Metropolis Collection represents the next evolution of Globe-Trotter design, bringing together heritage craftsmanship and bold, contemporary engineering. Each piece reflects a balance of precision, performance, and artistry, reimagining what luxury travel can be.
At its core, the Metropolis Carry-On in Red and Moss captures this spirit of modern exploration. Globe-Trotter’s signature vulcanised fibreboard is encased within a precision-engineered aluminium frame, creating a suitcase that is both lighter and stronger while maintaining the distinctive silhouette that defines the brand. Every contour, rivet, and stitch has been refined, from the sculpted corners to the handcrafted English leather accents.
The vivid red body contrasts with deep moss green trim and polished chrome hardware, lending a confident yet sophisticated presence. Inside, the innovative zip-in lining keeps belongings secure and perfectly arranged, while the newly designed hubcap wheels inspired by automotive design ensure smooth, effortless movement. TSA-approved locks complete the case, offering security with elegance.
The Metropolis Carry-On is designed for travellers who value efficiency and style. Compact enough for cabin travel yet spacious enough for weekend escapes, it is a true expression of modern luxury and timeless craftsmanship.
For extended journeys, complete your set with the matching Metropolis Large Check-In in Red & Moss.

Size & Weight
Materials
Vulcanised Fibreboard
Lighter than aluminium and tougher than leather, Vulcanised Fibreboard is our unique proprietary material and is made from 14 layers of recycled paper bonded with zinc.
Corners
The iconic leather corners of our cases take five days to craft and complete. And are moulded using time-honoured machinery for optimum strength and form.
Handles
It’s quite fitting that our durable handles are made entirely by hand. With the core materials bonded together for 48 hours before construction even begins.
Serial plaque
Each case is truly one of a kind, individualised with its own unique serial number. Find it on a metal plaque inside your case, and use it to track your movements around the globe.
Lining
The inside of your case is an ode to your individual character. Durable and water resistant, the luxurious inner lining is meticulously crafted and can stay suited to the bag or customised to feel individual to you.
Locks
Each case comes with carbon steel locks so you can travel with peace of mind. Turn to a North-South position to unlock and East-West to lock.
