Japanese brand Neighborhood have teamed up with legendary German suitcase connoisseurs Globe Trotter on this new collection of heavy-duty travel pieces. Constructed from hardcore vulcanized black fiber, these cases, available in 18, 21 and 30 inch sizes, are made to withstand the worst of any travel nightmares. Accented with white leather and lined with a classic checkerboard pattern, the cases also sport a nautically themed Neighborhood logo, anchor and all.

Sure, pockets are an extremely convenient way to carry things around, but for those times when you find yourself needing to lug around more than your keys, a smart phone and your pocket lint, the spring/summer 2012 collection bags from Japan’s South 2 West 8 make for an excellent alternative to shoving things in your pants. Even with a truly outdoorsy and naturalistic appeal, any of the S2W8 bags wouldn’t look entirely exotic patrolling the subway or gliding though an office. These things (and the plurality must be appreciated here since there more than 15 different bag options to chose from) are meant to take quite a beating wherever they end up, benefiting from quality contraction techniques and materials, making sure that function isn’t lost within the simple, rugged form.

Belgian designer Dries Van Noten has effectively merged beauty and function in this new versatile messenger bag. Hand-stiched together from khaki canvas and brown Italian leather, this bag is all about getting down to business, foregoing any nonfunctional frills to keep from creating catacombs of unnecessary pockets and nonsense. Armed with an adjustable leather strap, this messenger is just big enough to make the transition to a weekender if necessary, adding an extra layer of reward to an already ovation worthy piece of luggage.

While some current wrist-worn timepieces may be into resembling something as gargantuan as Big Ben, Italian watchmakers Fullspot are taking the much more eye pleasing minimalist route with their 2012 O Clock Numbers Collection. But even with the smaller amount of features, customization isn’t entirely watch, with both black and white interchangeable bands and faces. These simple and functional watches would look perfect hugging any wrist for any occasion, and most certainly won’t look like you’re wearing one of Flava Flav’s necklaces on your wrist.

LA based Killspencer is never one to disappoint when it comes to incredible accessories, as evident by their new and completely innovative Dopp/Folio. One second, it’s a nubuck leather (also available in black leather, original wax, and Korean War Era canvas) dopp kit made for holding all of your portable toiletries. But be careful not to blink, as only a second later and void of all toiletries, the dopp kit folds out into a folio that offers a perfect fit for anything you need to go out on the town, including an iPad, standard size magazine and business cards. This two in one piece of luggage can easily keep you fresh, both hygienically and stylistically.
