The range seeks to reimagine the manner in which people travel. The designs are focused on "ensuring durability and a lifetime of use." Each piece of luxurious luggage combines reclaimed century-old timber logs, aluminum and carbon fibers, as well as a subtle hint of [rich French leather](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bottega-veneta-6). This last motif provides Charles Simon's offering with a dash of elegance. The luxurious luggage also comes with an option for customization as the case can be engraved with the owner's name and a completely unique serial number. The collection by the Montreal-based brand is said to retail between $11,975 and $29,850 USD. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 57% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Reclaimed Materials:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore sustainable manufacturing processes using reclaimed materials to create luxurious products. - **Customization:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop personalized customization options to enhance the luxury experience for customers. - **Durable Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Innovate durable materials and construction techniques to create long-lasting and robust luxury goods. ### Who This Affects Most - **Luxury Goods:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce eco-friendly and personalized luxury luggage lines to meet the growing demand for sustainable and unique products. - **Sustainable Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporate reclaimed materials and environmentally friendly production methods to create eco-luxury products across various industries. - **Personalization Services:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Offer customized engraving and tailor-made features for luxury products to provide a unique and exclusive experience for consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Chic Sustainable Nylon Luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-signature-collection.md) - [Leather-Wrapped Premium Suitcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-suitcase.md) - [Opulent Brass Travel Trunks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-courrier-lozine-110-lv-brass.md) - [Luxurious Luggage Team-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-8.md) - [Textural Luggage Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carryon-x-core-collection.md) - [Modernized Ultra-Durable Luggage](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultradurable-luggage.md) - [Grooved Aluminum Luggages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-5.md) - [Luxe Luggage Brand Purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rimowa-groove-collection.md) - [Uniquely Constructed Suitcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hybrid-luggage-collection.md)
