Matador Travel Equipment and Carryology introduced the Matador x Carryology EDX Series Trident Collection, a three-piece travel and everyday carry collection “to redefine the concept of One Bag Travel.”
“Both brands have been excited about the opportunity to work together closely for years now, but neither Matador nor Carryology wanted to do a collaboration project for the sake of doing it,” said Chris Clearman, CEO of Matador. “We agreed to wait to do something awesome when it made sense. And this project was it!”
After 16-plus months of development, the companies developed the “1.5 Bag Travel,” which acknowledges that travelers don’t need to carry their entire travel bag with them all the time and instead can use a smaller bag for everyday items.
The EDX Series includes a lightweight sling, small messenger bag and backpack that are packable and weatherproof. A VX07 water-resist fabric from Dimension Polyant was used to make the collection and includes a weatherproofing developed by Matador and Carryology called HydraGuard seam binding technology.
The bags incorporate functional organization, magnetic closures, hardware from YKK and a Mag-Hook for flap closure.
