BÉIS and KidSuper Launch "Graffiti Cargo" Travel Collection

BÉIS and KidSuper Launch "Graffiti Cargo" Travel Collection

BÉIS and KidSuper have collaborated on a nine-piece travel capsule collection that reimagines luggage as a canvas for artistic expression. This partnership merges BÉIS's functional travel design with the distinctive artistic vision of Colm Dillane, the founder of KidSuper. The collection debuted during KidSuper's Spring/Summer 2027 show in Miami in June, where BÉIS founder Shay Mitchell showcased the pieces.

A significant highlight of the collection is the introduction of The Trunk Check-In Roller, marking BÉIS's inaugural entry into the trunk luggage category, a product long requested by customers. This new trunk features a spacious 70/30 opening, detachable kickstand straps for stability, reliable braking wheels for secure positioning, and interior organization tailored to its substantial size. Complementing the trunk are expanded versions of the popular Hybrid Rollers, now available in both Check-In and Carry-On sizes. These rollers are equipped with BÉIS's patent-pending Coupling System, designed to link multiple units together, allowing them to be maneuvered as a single, cohesive piece of luggage. The collection also includes a Carryall Duffle, a Pro Travel Backpack, a Pro Travel Crossbody, Luggage Covers, and a Luggage Tag, with several items drawn from the existing BÉIS Pro Collection.

The artistic flair of the collection originates from Colm Dillane's creative output. Each item in the capsule is adorned with one of two custom prints: the "Graffiti Cargo" artwork or Dillane's vibrant "Finale" painting. The "Graffiti Cargo" design draws inspiration from KidSuper's operational history. Dillane and his team historically transported collections between projects using cardboard shipping boxes, a practice that informed the concept for this print. The design aims to capture the aesthetic of well-traveled, worn shipping boxes, complete with hand-drawn graphics, transforming this utilitarian origin into a functional and stylish travel accessory. This approach underscores the collection's theme of treating luggage not merely as a utility but as a statement piece.

This collaboration represents a fusion of practical travel solutions with avant-garde art and design. BÉIS, known for its thoughtfully designed travel gear, provides the structural integrity and functional features, while KidSuper, a brand celebrated for its artistic and often whimsical approach, infuses the collection with unique visual identity. The "Graffiti Cargo" collection aims to appeal to travelers who value both the utility of their luggage and its aesthetic appeal, offering a way to express personal style even while on the move. The inclusion of BÉIS's first trunk and the innovative coupling system for its rollers further solidify the collection's focus on enhancing the travel experience through thoughtful design and artistic collaboration.
