There’s a new carry-on luggage poised to be essential for 2023. For avid jetsetters who prefer to bypass the checked bag, in line with Pursuitist’s guidance, Roam has released a fresh carry-on bag equipped with a front pocket. We’ve already marked the Jaunt XL Roam as a standout among recent carry-on options. With this latest iteration, it’s evidently time for travelers to embrace more room and simplicity.
Far from being just a pretty face, this bag is resilient, spacious, sleek, and undeniably luxe. Hailing from the masterminds behind the TUMI brand, Roam’s new Carry-On with Front Pocket is poised to secure its spot as a top-tier luxury suitcase.
Pushing the envelope further, the Roam team has added a thrilling feature to its hard-sided cases – front pockets! It’s yet another innovative avenue to opt for a bespoke design at Roam. The brand continues its trajectory, consistently setting benchmarks in custom design and stellar craftsmanship.
Born from the genius of Charlie Clifford, founder of the iconic luggage brand Tumi, and Larry Lein, Tumi’s past executive vice president, Roam clearly understands the intricacies of crafting premium suitcases.
For those on the move, the spectrum of customization is broad: from shells, linings, zippers, wheels, trims, to size, expandability, and now, the all-convenient front pocket for lightning-fast access.
