This smart travel bag made by Los Angeles design company 'This is Ground,' is perfect for the traveler in many ways. First, it is beautifully designed with high-quality leather and perfectly fits clothing, shoes, technology gadgets and important documents. Functionally, it is roomier than a briefcase but more organized than a duffel bag -- with carrying options similar to both -- making it the perfect travel carrier companion.

The bag also includes a Karma Go WiFi device -- from the pay-as-you-go carrier -- in a side pocket that also has room for a phone, battery pack and multiple cords. The smart travel bag comes in an array of mature colors, from [Navy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flykitt) and [Cognac](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hennessy-and-florian-zumbrunn) to [French Grey](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/france) and Charcoal.
