Now That More And More Counties,

are welcoming tourist,


it is time to dust off your suitcases, but how about treating yourself to some new ones?

there is a new travel brand called molninspired by the Swedish word for cloud,

the cases are on the website and are available in its flagship location in Tokyo,

everything from the zippers to the wheels have been rigorously stress-tested to withstand the not-so-gentle handling at airports, Moln suitcases are currently available in 3 sizes: small, small plus and large. The small and small plus are carry-on sizes with the main difference being that small plus comes with a laptop pocket. The large doesn’t have a laptop sleeve as it’s intended to be checked. The luggage ranges from 49,000 yen, at today's rate £299.39 or $375.00 to 69,000 yen, £421.66 or $528.11 if you are in Tokyo you can go check out the luggage in-person at their flagship store (map) in Minami-Aoyama,

Moln was started by Yu Akasaka and Jun Nishikawa, who previously founded an online dating site which they sold to Match Group in 2015. And perhaps one reason for the brand’s success so far is the way they’ve leveraged creative partners to help develop the experience. The logo and website was designed by Ken Okamoto. The flagship store in Minami-Aoyama was designed by Koichi Futatsumata. The actual product was designed by Fumie Shibata while the industrial design and engineering was handled by Nobuyoshi Tanaka, so travel with your old cases to Japan then return with your new Moln cases, sounds like a great idea.
