Solo New York, a leading, urban-inspired designer of backpacks, totes, duffels, briefs, and sleeves, today unveiled the new Downtown Travel Collection, a sharp new collection that’s designed for the busy traveller looking for a weekend escape.

Based on the success of the brand’s Duane Hybrid backpack / briefcase – the top-selling laptop bag in the U.S. (NPD Group) – Solo New York has expanded the Downtown Collection to include a unique collection of five travel-ready bags, including three new duffels, a backpack and an accessory kit. The style, features and approachable price points make the Downtown Travel Collection a perfect choice for those looking to get out of the office for weekend getaway.

Solo New York launches the new Downtown Travel Collection in collaboration with professional skateboarder Dave Bachinsky, founder of ShapeThree, a project that uses recycled skateboard decks to create handmade designs. Bachinsky crafted two custom ShapeThree handles for the Travel Collection roller duffels, and with them he traveled thouout London for a skate competition. Bachinsky is the latest Solo Creator, a series profiling aspirational individuals.
