Iconic American Travelware Brand Briggs & Riley Unveils New Baseline Collection

The redesigned version of the travel brand’s flagship collection continues to provide exceptional performance while introducing enhanced innovation

The iconic American travelware brand Briggs & Riley is proud to announce the debut of the new Baseline collection. Today, the brand unveils a reimagined version of the brand’s flagship collection, merging timeless style with extraordinary engineering. The collection consists of a variety of distinctive pieces that work together seamlessly.

“Enhancing the travel experience and providing revolutionary innovations remains at the forefront of our brand’s core values,” said Briggs & Riley CEO Richard Krulik. “Especially in today’s climate, with new adventures being realised after a challenging two years, travellers are seeking products crafted with the ultimate care. We are thrilled to introduce the new Baseline collection, which reflects the deep passion, pride, and loyalty to authentically delivering smart technology to help travellers discover the world.”

The new Baseline Collection features varying styles including wheeled carry-on and checked luggage, backpacks, tote bags, duffle bags, garment bags, and toiletry kits. Standout features setting Baseline apart in the industry include:

The world's only one-touch CX™ expansion, an upgraded system from the original Baseline collection. With the simple press of a button, nearly all wheeled bags in the collection can expand to increase packing capacity, and then can be easily compressed down to their original size.
Proprietary shock absorbing wheels for 360° maneuverability and smooth, quiet gliding.
Premium identification through elegant personalisation and iconic leather detailing, which is the first time that monogramming is available for Baseline products.
Optimal capacity with the brand’s patented Outsider® handle to provide a flat packing surface inside to minimise wrinkles. The handle is made from aircraft-grade aluminum and engineered with outstanding impact resistant design.
Superior materials tested to the highest standards, such as ballistic nylon fabric that provides exceptional durability and resists wear and tear, to evoke travelling with confidence.
Smartly designed versatile features such as extra-wide garment panels to envelop clothing for minimal creasing, and an integrated garment carrier to secure formal attire.

Additional organisational elements include a PowerPocket™ to conveniently store a battery pack or mobile phone to charge on the go, an add-a-bag strap, to transport two bags as one, organisational pockets with soft, premium lining so that everything from laptops and iPads to business cards and pens have a dedicated space, and RFID blocking pockets to protect personal data.
