Introducing the 2021 collection of Brompton bags made with Liberty Fabric
Back for 2021 with a fresh release, a collection of Brompton bags made with Liberty Fabric are here just in time for warmer weather and your next-day trip adventure.
In 1875, Liberty Fabric’s adventurous founder, Arthur Lasenby, took a building on Regent Street, London, with just three dedicated staff and plenty of ambition. Just 100 years later, Brompton inventor Andrew Ritchie made his first-ever folding bike in the spare bedroom of his West London apartment in 1975. A design classic in its own right, the Brompton bicycle continues to be hand-built in London today with innovation and care.
Like the bike, Brompton luggage is crafted to meet the demands of day-to-day use in the city. The 2021 Brompton bag collection sees two new patterns: the archive Metropolis and Jonathan. Both patterns are applied to a custom-made Polyester fabric with a highly water-resistant coating, which are printed in Italy to the Liberty Design studio’s highest quality standards.
The Metropolis design, an ode to London, draws from the city’s towering skyscrapers with a bold geometric pattern and 3D shapes.
Jonathan references the creative process with a monochrome geometric pattern inspired by pencil shavings found on the design studio floor.
Four popular Brompton bags; the Tote, Basket, Backpack and Zip Pouch take on a new direction this year. All four styles fit seamlessly onto the front carrier block of your Brompton, bringing style and function to every ride.
