BRIEFING suitcases are a popular luggage brand known for their exceptional functionality and aesthetic appeal. In addition to their stylish design, they combine essential durability and functionality for travel, supporting fulfilling trips and business trips. From casual weekend getaways to 2-3 night business trips, and 5-7 night vacations during Golden Week or summer holidays, they smartly support your travels with peace of mind and functional beauty.

This time, we'll introduce two models available at Isetan Shinjuku, the "HD" and "SD," comparing their functions and features.

Briefing: A reliable bag brand with exceptional functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Briefing celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2023, and has since evolved into a lifestyle brand encompassing not only bags but also travel, golf, and outdoor lines.
Briefing suitcases, with their high-quality materials, functionality, and robustness, exude a reliable, gear-like feel. This series embodies the brand's bag philosophy for travel, and its design seamlessly matches popular backpacks, totes, and briefcases, making it easy to pair with both suits and casual wear.

"HD" Heavy Duty. Robustness and stability protect your belongings.

The "HD" series is a suitcase that combines the brand's signature tough appearance with carefully selected components. The design is reminiscent of the ballistic nylon used in some of the bag collections, and it features functionality that supports you from the journey to your destination, including the wheels, trolley handle, and interior. Even when fully packed, the large-diameter wheels provide smooth maneuverability, reducing stress during travel.

Featuring original casters with the brand logo, this bag boasts a design that truly reflects the brand's identity, while its heavy-duty construction reliably protects your belongings, providing comfortable support in every aspect of your travels.

Here's what's so great about "HD"!

1. Lightweight body that is resistant to impact

Using polycarbonate as the main material, it achieves a lightweight yet impact-resistant and robust body. The main frame uses a lightweight and strong aluminum frame with excellent impact resistance, achieving a sophisticated form while maintaining strength.

2. Low-center-of-gravity wheels that combine stability and design.

The wheels feature an original design with the BRIEFING logo and a low center of gravity for excellent stability while riding.

3. Removable interior

The interior is lined with a fine ripstop nylon material that combines smoothness and durability. The interior divider panel is removable and can be used as a wall pocket for storing small items when staying at a hotel.

4. Original handle

The aluminum carry bar, designed to reduce distortion and wobbling, features an original handle with a matte finish that matches the exterior.

PICK UP! Recommended model from the "HD" series: "H-98 HD PLUS"

A large-capacity suitcase that can hold enough luggage for a 5-7 night trip. Equipped with carefully selected parts throughout, it's also recommended for family trips. Available in two colors: BLACK and DARK OLIVE.

The "SD" standard model boasts nimble handling and smooth riding performance.

Compared to the "HD" series, the Briefing "SD" series is lighter, offers a wider range of colors, and maintains a focus on functionality. It's a hard case for smart travel, designed to be the brand's "STANDARD" for travel, pursuing superior functionality, lightness, sophisticated design, smooth handling, and comfortable movement.
The latest model features a redesigned polycarbonate material with a matte, sand-like finish on the surface, making it resistant to fingerprints and scratches. This material boasts excellent flame retardancy and impact resistance, making it extremely difficult to break. Its high strength and durability mean it won't deteriorate easily even with long-term use, and it's easy to clean during storage. The completely updated "SD" will support your travels in a more comfortable way.

Here's what's important about "SD"!

1. Bottom handle for easy loading and unloading

The bottom handle positioned at the lower front of the case makes loading and unloading from car trunks and bullet trains much easier. The design ensures effortless handling even in situations where you frequently load and unload items. Furthermore, large rivets on the sides provide stability when the case is placed horizontally, making it easy to use not only during transport but also during storage.

2. Updated large wheels

Upgraded with larger 60mm diameter wheels for smoother riding on uneven surfaces and over bumps. Improved quietness reduces stress during travel. Designed for quiet use indoors as well, it's versatile for any situation.

3. Features an easy-to-open and close front panel (a first for this model).

This product features a front panel that opens like a lid, making it easy to open and close even in limited spaces such as hotel rooms or other travel destinations. It also comes with a tape that allows you to adjust the opening angle, so you can open it wide in spacious areas and more discreetly in confined spaces.

4. A three-layered divider that can be used in different ways.

Access from the front panel is designed as a three-layer structure with a divider. The divider can be rolled up and bundled to change the configuration to two layers or one layer, allowing for flexible use depending on the application.

PICK UP! Recommended model from the "SD" series: "H-60T SD"

Featuring a high-performance polycarbonate exterior, a carry handle that can be adjusted to 7 different heights to suit your height and usage scenario, and casters that provide smoother rolling. Available in three colors: BLACK, STEEL, and NAVY.

Choose "HD" if you prioritize sturdiness and stability, and "SD" if you prioritize lightness and mobility.

Briefing suitcases support a fulfilling journey with absolute peace of mind and functional beauty. Inheriting the toughness derived from military design, these suitcases are overwhelmingly popular among those who want a durable bag. They exude a presence that is instantly recognizable as Briefing, while their simple design is also appealing.

The "HD" series, with its heavy-duty look, prioritizes sturdiness and stability, while the "SD" series, which has evolved even further this season, prioritizes lightness and mobility. Both series fully meet the needs of users, supporting a more comfortable and smarter journey.
