Known for creating [high-end, long-lasting travel accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultradurable-luggage), Globe-Trotter released the new RAF 100 luggage line to celebrate the [Royal Air Force's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unified-travel-reward-cards) 100th anniversary.

Designed in the brand's famous style, the new line features a large interior that is easily organized as well as a secure strap around the exterior to keep all valuables as safe as possible. Straying from traditional design, the brand replaced the classic vulcanized fiberboard shell with a [sturdy aluminum](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aerionn-forma). Adding rivets on the outside add to the aeronautic style, ensure a good looking product that fits into the anniversary. The luggage opens lengthways to give all consumers easy access and easy packing abilities. Finishing off the look is a luxurious brown quilted interior that was added to keep all clothes wrinkle-free.

The new RAF 100 luggage line offers either a 14" utility case or a 20" trolley with telescoping wooden handle, making sure that a size for any occasion is available.
