Yes, Calvin Klein does Make Luggage!
| August 21st, 2009Okay, I’m about to date myself, but do you remember that scene from Back to the Future when Marty jumps back in time, meets his mom’s teenage self, and she’s convinced his name is Calvin Klein because she saw it on his underwear? That gag garnered big guffaws in the theater, simply because EVERYONE knows the name “Calvin Klein!”
It’s true internationally. I remember walking through the night bizarre in Chiang Mai seeing t-shirt after gymbag after jean bearing a big CK or with the name Calvin Klein emblazoned across the front — sometimes spelled correctly, sometimes not. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. If that’s so, Calvin Klein must be blushing.
The brand is a big name for a good reason. They are more than a clothing company, but a lifestyle and design company, and now they also offer luggage! Calvin Klein bags are clean, classic, and aesthetically functional–pretty much just what you’d expect from the name. Crafted of ballistic nylon, the luggage styles come in mostly natural hues.
Right now, Irv’s Luggage is offering every Calvin Klein bag at a huge discount. You can save up to 60% on bags from either the Soho or Thompson collections. I’m partial to the Soho collection, partially because it comes in a really pretty dark green, but also because of the minimalist design. That’s not to minimize the Thompson collection, though, which comes in classic silver or black, and is also sleek and chic.
At these discounted prices, you win either way. And if you ever travel back to the past, and are lucky enough to have your luggage with you, the laughs and confusion you’ll cause your historical hosts are limitless! Be sure and pack fresh underwear.
