Story & heritage
The Metropolis Carry-On is Globe-Trotter’s deliberately modern chapter. The official description calls the collection the world’s first vulcanised-fibreboard suitcase made with an aluminium frame.
It keeps the brand’s recognisable rectangular body but changes the construction language: sharper, more technical and more architectural than the strap-bound Centenary.
Materials & craft
The case combines Globe-Trotter’s vulcanised fibreboard with a precision-engineered aluminium structure, sculpted fittings and four-wheel mobility. The official copy frames the result as lighter, stronger and more refined within the brand’s material vocabulary.
How to choose & style
Metropolis suits travellers who like the Globe-Trotter outline but want a cleaner, more contemporary edge. Black and chrome pairs naturally with monochrome luggage sets, leather sneakers and a minimal weekender.
