I've spotted this luxury luggage brand in The Gentleman season 2

When it comes to luxury luggage, the premium British brand Carl Friedrik easily rivals Rimowa and Louis Vuitton. Now, I’ve spotted its luggage in The Gentlemen season two. The hit Netflix show returned this week. Directed by Guy Ritchie, the dark comedy follows English aristocrat Eddie Horniman (Theo James), who inherits his family estate only to discover a profitable criminal empire is run by Susie Glass (Kaya Scodelario) from within the impoverished estate. The second season sees Eddie get dragged deeper into the criminal underworld of old-money aristocrats and international power players. The show is distinctly stylish, from Eddie’s British heritage wardrobe (checks, Barbour jackets and flat caps) to Susie’s Mob wife-inspired looks (big sunglasses, red lips and matching red suits). Carl Friedrik’s Hybrid collection crops up throughout the season, with the check-in case serving as the luggage for the royal Sheikh Amir (Amra Mallassi) and Eddie himself. But it’s not just aristocrats putting their seal of approval on Carl Friedrik luggage; aspirational characters in The White Lotus and fictional billionaire businessmen in Succession have also been spotted with the brand’s bags, which represent an unshowy display of wealth. Its hard-shell aluminium or polycarbonate suitcases feature signature tan leather detailing, while the brand’s supple full-grain leather weekender bags are the embodiment of quiet luxury. Founded by two Swedish brothers with a Bauhaus-inspired aesthetic, Carl Friedrik began life as a London-based leather brand selling wallets and briefcases. Today, its expanded product line is functional, minimalist and logo-free – the kind of luggage that has people asking in the passport queue where you got it. Carl Friedrik’s carry-on and weekender Daisy Lester Over the years, I’ve accumulated various Carl Friedrik luggage items, including the carry-on hybrid in silver and tan, the Granville weekender in chestnut, and the compact weekender in nubuck. Durable, stylish and designed for ease while on the go, this trio has travelled with me around the world, from Marrakech to Vietnam and Australia. An investment now for a lifetime of trips, these are Carl Friedrik luxury luggage pieces I’d recommend investing in. Carl Friedrik the carry-on, silver/tanCarl FriedrikThe silver/tan hybrid check-in case is the exact case in The Gentlemen, and my own trusty steed when travelling. Boasting a premium aluminium frame but a supremely lightweight polycarbonate shell, the case combines style and substance. The carry-on version – which fits the large cabin bag requirements for British Airways, EasyJet, Ryanair, and Wizz Air – is also available in five more sleek colourways, from tan and cognac to grey and chocolate, or navy and hackett. Carl Friedrik granville weekender Carl FriedrikThis is the kind of bag that only looks better with age. I’ve had mine for two years – there’s no wear and tear, only that impeccable worn-in leather look. A great carry-on option for long-haul flights or a bag for a weekend away, the capacious interior features an array of pockets, a zip fastening, and a cross-body strap or grab handles. It can be slipped over your suitcase handles, too – meaning your bag won’t slip off the edges while travelling through the airport (not chic). Carl Friedrik the carry-on, aluminiumCarl Friedrik Carl Friedrik’s luxurious anodised aluminium suitcase is among the most affordable on the luggage market. Available with either cognac, black or grey leather straps and handles, the carry-on case nods to mid-century trunk styles, complete with TSA combination locks, silent wheels and interior compression pads, pockets and zipped compartments. Like all of Carl Friedrik’s cases, there’s no exterior zip – meaning no snagged clothes or wrestling with your suitcase to get it shut (just me?) Carl Friedrik the check-in suitcaseCarl Friedrik For week-long trips and long-haul adventures, invest in this hybrid check-in suitcase, which was spotted in season one of The Gentlemen. Designed with the same sleek, mid-century details, the case features grooved panel details and tanned leather handles. The lightweight polycarbonate shell is easily plucked from the baggage carousel, while internal straps and a compression pad help maximise space. Carl Friedrik compact weekender Carl Friedrik Carl Friedrik’s compact bag is designed for city staycations, weekends in the countryside or carry-on for short-haul flights. Measuring 46cm x 28cm x 18.5 cm, the bag complies with EasyJet and British Airways restrictions. The neutral vegetable-tanned leather colourways complement Carl Friedrik’s core luggage line – my favourite is the rich olive green shade.
