Globe-Trotter has collaborated with The Vampire’s Wife to create a limited-edition luggage collection, that celebrates Globe-Trotter’s traditional craftsmanship and iconic design through, marking a shared journey in reimagining the world of luxury travel.
The collection comprises two elegant colourways: The Black Collection and The Wedding Collection, both of which feature interiors in black sparkle velvet and blood red respectively, alongside carefully moulded leather trims, golden brass hardware and luggage tags featuring The Vampire’s Wife’s iconic bat motif.
Inspired by the original steamer trunk, Globe-Trotter’s large capacity luggage designed for the cabins in steamer ships and trains, is now available the new Globe-Trotter Trunk. Reinterpreted for modern-day travel with 4-wheels, the new trunk has the largest capacity at around 117 litres, enough to take numerous outfits, footwear, accessories and personal belongings last over two weeks’ worth of travelling.
Honouring the recognisable Centenary design, the trunk comes complete with robust vegetable-tanned bull leather corners and straps to keep your luggage protected over the course of your journey. A telescopic trolley system allows you to effortlessly steer your way across any terrain.

Vulcanised Fibreboard
Each case is made from Globe-Trotter’s proprietary Vulcanised Fibreboard, composed of 14 layers of recycled paper, cotton, and wood pulp from sustainable forests. The layers are bonded with zinc and compressed using steam and pressure. This results in a material that is exceptionally lightweight and strong, offering durability for a lifetime of travel while remaining easy to carry. We use this material for its unique balance of strength and lightness, which is exclusive to Globe-Trotter.
Vegetable-Tanned Leather
All leather elements, including the hand-moulded corners, trims, handles and fastening details, are made from vegetable-tanned hide. This traditional tanning method uses only natural plant extracts to create leather of exceptional strength and character. Over time, it develops a rich patina, ensuring that every case becomes ever more individual with each journey.
Ethical Sourcing
All leathers are ethically sourced. We partner only with suppliers who uphold high standards of animal welfare and environmental responsibility. This ensures full traceability and a commitment to sustainable production.
Webbing Straps
Webbing straps are woven from high-strength cotton, chosen for durability and a classic finish. Each strap is finished with hand-cut vegetable-tanned leather tips, providing added strength and an elevated detail. This combination ensures lasting reliability and refined style.
Handles
Handles are constructed from a blend of bonded leather and reinforcement materials, pressed for 48 hours before hand assembly. This method provides both comfort in the hand and long-term durability, making every journey effortless.
Lining
The interior is lined with a finely woven cotton or cotton-blend fabric, selected for its soft touch, strength, and complementary aesthetic.
Locks and Hardware
Locks and hardware are precision-engineered from carbon steel or solid brass, then finished in gold, chrome, or signature tones. Each piece is chosen for its security, durability, and ease of use.
Serial Plaque
A unique, individually numbered metal plaque is placed inside every case. This confirms authenticity and provides a permanent mark of provenance.
