Floyd is giving modern travel its mojo back
Travelers crave it, and Floyd has it: that unique and unmistakable look. Since its founding in 2019, Floyd has established itself as an authentic brand for modern hardshell luggage.
With unbridled individuality and innovation, these hip travel cases transport the spirit of 1970s Californian skateboard culture into the present day, captivating a rapidly growing fan base of business travelers, long-haul adventurers, globetrotters, and weekenders alike. What unites them all is the satisfying feeling—thanks to these colorful trolleys—of belonging to a large family that stands apart from the monotonous rest of the traveling world.
Two teenagers from Munich dreamed of the Californian lifestyle as they sped through the streets of their neighborhood on skateboards, devouring American skate magazines. Although Bernd Georgi and Horst Kern never quite made it to Venice during the golden years of skateboard culture, their dream of a life free from convention—combined with their careers in the fashion industry—eventually took them as far afield as South Africa and Hong Kong. In 1996, they founded their own company; since then, they have been producing high-quality accessories and luggage for renowned brands worldwide.
With Floyd, the two entrepreneurs—drawing on more than 20 years of experience in luggage manufacturing—have returned to their roots. Inspired by the dreams of their youth, their brand and its unconventional rolling suitcases serve as a tribute to the 1970s bohemian spirit and the vibrant visual language of that pulsating decade in Venice. In this way, Floyd gives the modern traveler a taste of that very zeitgeist—that "mojo"—of the wild 70s that they themselves had always dreamed of as teenagers.
