HAUPPAUGE, N.Y., Dec. 5, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Solo, the leading New York based travel and day bag brand, announces today the debut of its first-ever luggage collection.

"Solo has always appealed to environmentally conscious travelers. Our backpacks, duffels, hybrid bags and tech accessories have always delivered design with purpose, so we set out on a mission to create a luggage collection to meet the needs of the travelers who choose us for our stylish design, and eco-friendly business practices," said Solo CEO Richard Krulik. "We are proud to premiere one of the most sustainable luggage collections on the market at a time when green travel choices are more important than ever."
