Branded trolley bags are practical, chic and make our lives easier: needless to deny it, they’ve revolutionised the way we travel since their first appearance.
The times are long gone when elegant ladies à la Audrey Hepburn walked the corridors of New York stations with breathless porters loaded with suitcases and trunks. You’ll certainly remember Louis Vuitton’s iconic one.
Thanks to the invention of the trolley bag – the now widespread suitcase with wheels – today we can afford to walk the apparently infinite distance from the car rental to our gate without panting.
A multi-faceted accessory, trolley bags are democratic (they allow anyone to move and travel autonomously, even if they aren’t professional weightlifters) and good for your health: forget about lumbagos and post-flight backaches that ruin your holidays.
It’s no coincidence that we see more and more children going to school with backpacks trolley: mums care about their well-being and aim to prevent any possible damage due to carrying heavy backpacks.
But let’s go back to travel: trolley bags have accustomed us to comfort unthinkable in the days of the traditional suitcase; not infrequently, for instance, it’s allowed us to avoid luggage boarding saving us time, money, and worries.
A model for every need, keyword: practicality
Being available in different styles, price ranges, materials and technologies, this type of luggage is suitable for everyone:
- There’s the super-practical one, where you can cram everything (always managing to close it), while the taxi’s waiting downstairs.
- There’s the very elegant one in leather, frequently used by men.
- There’s the super-technological one, made of resistant and/or ultra-lightweight materials (ABS and polycarbonate, undisputed protagonists of modern rigid trolley bags production, excel in both requirements).
- There’s the glamour one, which besides being useful tells something about you and integrates your image as a precious accessory.
- Finally, there’s the trolley bag for summer holidays, super spacious yet always practical and manageable, and the compact one you can put in the overhead lockers of a low-cost flight. There are two-wheelers, four-wheelers, and many more.
In short, the trolley bag is an essential accessory for contemporary travellers. It can be your faithful travel companion, the keeper of your essential goods and the symbol of your personal style.
You don’t need to be like Audrey Hepburn or to go to famous luggage shops to travel comfortably, light and in style.
What’s luxury after all? Uniqueness, personality, and value (pay attention: value, not price).
Personalisation: a luxury within everyone’s reach
While wearing your favourite dress, the one that falls perfectly on you, you’ve got compliments like “it looks tailor-made” and “it seems made for you”.
When we make a successful, love-at-first-sight purchase, we almost have the impression that the designer who made it knows us and has thought of us during its crafting.
The dress that seems sewn on us, the shirt with embroidered figures, the fountain pen embellished with an engraving: what do these objects have in common? Besides making our life more beautiful, the word you’re looking for is "personalisation".
Think of the expensive handmade embroidery, the refined chiselling of expert craftsmen and the legendary Dymo label maker, that has imprinted the brand of many on any kind of objects. We’ve always tried to make our things even more our own.
Nowadays, thanks to new technologies, customisation is no longer a luxury for the few.
The new frontier of personalised promotional products: more than just biros and calendars
Our houses are full of promotional products. But we’re not talking about the butcher’s calendar or the biro with the shop telephone number printed on it.
Today, there are many objects that can be personalised, and the technologies used, the price ranges, the graphic and aesthetic possibilities have multiplied with them as well.
Manufacturers of personalised items are able to meet consumers’ most diverse needs. Think of trolley bags.
There are professionals who can embellish them with your name, your company logo, and – why not? – your favourite quote, or even a portrait made by your children or grandchildren.
The amazing thing is that you’re the designer. With an amateur-friendly technology, you can choose what to write, where and with which font. You can decide the colours, the graphics, and the effects, too.
This operation is fast and fun and makes you the protagonist of your choices. Furthermore, you’ll receive your creation comfortably at home in a few days exactly as you want it.
Play designer with guided personalisation
This is how it works: you choose the trolley bag you like most from the many available (there are some for all tastes and budgets). You’ll be redirected to a page containing all the information about the item, the methods and times of purchase and the possibilities of customisation.
After you’ve received your quote, a process that’s automatic and immediate, you can proceed with the customisation. You’ll be guided step by step in the choice of themes and colours, positioning, font type and colour, content, images.
The software is quick and intuitive and allows you to choose, position and even modify the image – or logo – that you want to see on your trolley bags by dragging or loading it.
But that’s not all. Once your work is completed, the automated part of the process ends, and the printing professionals finally come into play.
They’ll control the project and establish its feasibility, then they’ll select the best technical solutions to fulfil your request. They’ll contact you to submit the final project. Only then will you decide whether to proceed with the order or make some changes.
Who should you contact? Some advice to find your way around a sea of offers
There are many companies that offer personalisation services, but you have to make a conscious choice to be really satisfied.
When buying online, seriousness is undoubtedly the first requirement. In the age of the Internet, it’s synonymous with transparency.
Getting your quote online is definitely useful because it shortens the time considerably. By this type of promotional product there may be significant differences (in price as well as in timing) between standards product and the branded ones.
Make sure of shipping times and rates, especially when you see offers that are “too good to be true”: there are often hidden costs in this case.
Pay attention to the quality of the products: retailers aren’t obliged to include detailed information on manufacture and origin, but the use of CE certified materials is an element of trust.
