Between this Globe Trotter Warhol-branded luggage set and the Flight 001 chichi rent-a-luggage we covered a few months ago, we're starting to think that manufacturers are just trying to bait us. Are people really dropping thousands of dollars for something they check through at the front of the airport, only to pick up hours later when they're bleary eyed and jet lagged? Here's the deal on these pricey, limited-edition bags:
In association with the week-long Andy Warhol x Hysteric Glamour pop-up shop at the ISETAN store in Tokyo’s Shinjuku precinct, a marquee item... with three different sizes, each feature an all-black exterior while the inside features a Warholian skull motif with signature. The Andy Warhol x Hysteric Glamour pop-up shop on the 4th floor of ISETAN runs from the 16th till the 23rd of September.
True story: we have a writer at Jaunted HQ whose very first non-airport experience in Japan was at the world's busiest train station in Shinjuku. During rush hour. Dragging all his international luggage. Because our writer is not very smart. That's a whole other story howeve, and this post is about Warholian skulls on the inside of overpriced luggage sets. Just how overpriced, you ask?]]>
