Globe-Trotter is an English manufacturer of luggage, based in Mayfair, founded in 1897.[1]

History

The company was established in 1897. It manufactures luggage constructed from vulcanized fiberboard.[1] Vulcanized fiberboard consists of multiple layers of bonded paper and provides better water resistance and abrasion resistance than leather.[2]

Globe-Trotter has recently started to produce some items in leather.
