Italian luxury fashion label Gucci has unveiled its new 'Off the Grid' travel collection, offering an assortment of eco-friendly luggage options for sustainably-minded flyers. The new capsule will be the first installment from the brand's Gucci Circular Lines concept -- a new initiative that supports the brand's use of circular production.
Notable items in the 'Off the Grid' travel collection include a sleek duffle bag, a laundry bag, a carry-on suitcase, and dopp kit. The new carry-on piece utilizes Palladium-toned metal hardware, zip-up compartments, ECONYL nylon fabric, and four 360-degree wheels. In addition, the carry-on features an interlocking 'GG' pattern printed throughout with a black logo patch stitched on its center.
Adding to the collection's sustainability-focused mission statement, each piece is made from recycled materials and trim fabrics.
