Globe-Trotter, the British maker of hard-shell luggage, is releasing a three-piece suitcase set made with Tokyo artist YOSHIROTTEN. The set, called "SUPERNOVA," goes on sale November 16 through the brand's official online store.

The defining feature is that a single artwork runs across all three cases. Lined up together, they read as one piece, which makes the set closer to a portable artwork than a standard luggage trio. Each case holds 34 liters, and the cases are designed to be used as a group.

Production is capped at six sets worldwide, and the cases are sold only as a set, never individually. Globe-Trotter's Japan store lists the set at ¥1,815,000 and opens sales at noon Japan time on Monday, November 16, which is 10pm on Sunday, November 15 in New York. Each case is a two-wheel carry-on in the brand's vulcanised fibre, made without outer straps so the artwork stays uninterrupted, with natural leather handle and trim. YOSHIROTTEN signs the inside of each case by hand and adds a serial number, and for that reason delivery is planned for late December. The official listing is titled "YOSHIROTTEN × GLOBE-TROTTER | BEYOND EARTH Suitcase 3-Piece Set." It ties in with the BEYOND EARTH exhibition at TOKYO NODE in Tokyo, which runs from October 30 to January 11, 2027.

For New Yorkers, it is a notable meeting of Japanese contemporary art and British craft. Globe-Trotter's site offers a separate shipping page for the United States alongside Japan, and the set is sold through the online store rather than a New York shop. With only six sets available, the November 16 release day is the moment to be at the store's page.
