Coast New Zealand has expanded its range of ruggedly handsome New Zealand luggage with the introduction of The Clipper, a contemporary addition to its popular Weekender line, and the Cabin Bag, a matching carry-on. The bags feature outer shells of Sunbrella brand performance fabrics.
"Our customers demand luggage that is hard working, yet refined," said Nicola Webster, company founder. "We like to think of Coast luggage as a stylish marriage of form and function."
These qualities are evident in the new Clipper, which conceals a cavernous interior beneath clean lines and attractive detailing. Its more compact companion, the Cabin Bag, is ideal as an overnighter or, as the name suggests, a carry-on that complies with size restrictions of most major airlines.
While the Weekender combines rugged construction with simple, timeless style, the new Clipper and Cabin Bag share a more contemporary look, while retaining Coast's distinctive, understated confidence.
"Our design process gives equal emphasis to quality, originality, utility and style," Webster said. "We are filling a niche between technical bags that often lack style and designer bags that can be short on performance."
Both of the new bags are available in a range of colors that allows them to be mixed and matched with the existing range of luggage from Coast.
Coast New Zealand is a design-led company that focuses on the use of quality materials and workmanship. Every Coast bag features a Sunbrella fabric shell that is guaranteed to be resistant to water, fading and mildew. Stainless steel hardware and a waterproof lining also assure that Coast products can withstand prolonged exposure to the elements while maintaining an attractive appearance.
