Travelpro International, the leading manufacturer of lightweight durable luggage, is proud to partner with National Geographic, one of the world’s largest scientific and educational nonprofit organizations, to introduce the Northwall™ adventure luggage collection. National Geographic has selected the Montreal-based Holiday Group Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Travelpro International Inc. in the United States as its luggage and travel accessories licensee for the National Geographic and National Geographic Explorer™ brands in North America.
Durable, versatile and stylish, the Northwall luggage collection is built to travel over any terrain, from city streets to trekking in the wilderness. This versatile 7-piece collection combines soft and rolling duffels, uprights, a daypack and a sling bag.
“This collection combines abundant storage with rugged durability, a water-and-stain resistant coating and lightweight design that make it ready to go anywhere in the world,” said Scott Applebee Vice President of Marketing for Travelpro. “Additionally, National Geographic’s net proceeds support vital exploration, conservation, research and education programs.”
The Northwall luggage collection has unique features for every adventure traveller’s needs. The oversized ball-bearing wheels on upright and rolling duffel models are tested for over 25 miles and the handle system is tested over 12,500 cycles for optimal performance. Each upright includes two built-in wet pockets for storing toiletries or wet clothing. The collection comes standard with a unique interior lining featuring a map of the night-time constellations, capturing the essence of the legendary National Geographic brand.
A large front pocket with a padded laptop compartment allows easy access to a laptop or tablet. A business organizer stores pens, files, cards and keys. Other features include four carry handles to lift the luggage into an overhead bin or car trunk, a side-zippered water bottle pocket, 2 ½’ of expansion to expand an already spacious main compartment and a handy electronics pocket for a phone or music player.
The Northwall Collection line includes the following options: 22” Soft Duffel, Sling Bag, Daypack, 22” Expandable Rollaboard Luggage, 26” Expandable Rollaboard Luggage, 26” Expandable Drop Bottom Rolling Duffel and 32” Expandable Drop Bottom Rolling Duffel.
