ABOUT US
WHY WE STARTED
Luggage hasn’t changed in a century. So we reimagined it from the inside out.
We set out to build a suitcase you can live out of, modular, repairable, and evolving with you. Drobe is engineered like a wardrobe you can travel with; a system of parts that can be swapped, upgraded, or repaired, so your suitcase improves over time instead of being replaced.
YEARS OF DEVELOPMENT
EVERY PART IS UNIQUE FOR DROBE
From the lock mechanism to the rail system, every part of Drobe was designed from the ground up. We didn’t adapt existing suitcase parts or buy from standard factories, we engineered a new system where every element works in perfect harmony.
That meant building our own manufacturing line, creating components with absolute precision, and rethinking how luggage could function.
The result is a patent-pending travel system unlike anything else, built not to fit the past, but to define the future.

FOUNDERS STORY
SOMEONE HAD TO REINVENT THE LUGGAGE, SO I DID
I looked at my suitcase one day, lying open on the floor, and realised nothing had truly changed in over a century. In the 1900s, travellers had wardrobe trunks, elegant but impractical. Then came the hard-shell suitcase, lighter, portable… but still just two halves on wheels.
I saw a gap no one else had filled. What if we kept the brilliance of the wardrobe trunk, stripped away its flaws, and reimagined it for modern travel?
That’s Drobe, a suitcase you live out of, not just pack into. Modular, repairable, customisable. Built to last, designed to evolve, and ready for a century where adaptability is everything.
This is the suitcase I wished existed.
Now, it does.
