Not Your Typical SUITCASE

For those that swoon over the golden age of travel, with its stylish trunks and silk lined cases, HeyChesto is a new British luggage brand that offers a touch of bygone travel glamour for the contemporary traveller.

The HeyChesto collection has been inspired by iconic British destinations and its cases come in four evocative shades: The St Mawes in navy blue, The Cambridge in plum red, The Padstow in cream and The Glastonbury in matt gold for a bit of rock and roll.

Functionality flows on a par with aesthetic and each chic HeyChesto suitcase is handmade and built to last. The shell of the suitcase is made with ABS material and covered with PU, which is a hard-wearing imitation vegan leather. Glamorous goldcoloured latches and rivets add a vintage feel together with a sturdy lock ensuring possessions are safe and secure when on the move.

Each case’s interior is lined with striped cotton, either in a bold beach towel blue and white design or a more understated thinner stripe style. Three pockets line the sides of the case for small or loose items with the central area clear for clothes and washbags. Making moving through airports or train stations a breeze, the HeyChesto suitcase can either be carried like an old-fashioned case by clasping its smart handle or pushed through on 360 spinner wheels and pulled by its telescoping handle.

Whether gallivanting for a weekend in the countryside or further afield, HeyChesto is a colourful, design-inspired luggage option for people of any age or gender. The question is where to go to first. heychesto.com - NICK
