£1495

The Original collection is where the Globe-Trotter story begins. Each suitcase is handcrafted in England using traditional methods that date back to 1897, reflecting a legacy of simplicity, durability, and quiet confidence. This is luggage created with purpose, built to last, and designed for travellers who value authenticity over adornment. The case features a black vulcanised fibreboard body paired with matching black leather corners. Chrome fittings lend a refined, modern finish. With no straps, guides, or external embellishments, the silhouette remains clean and true to the original Globe-

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as GLOBE-TROTTER GROUP LIMITED, number 05145800. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Not yet checked.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
Not established. Many companies file a statement rather than naming a controlling shareholder.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
