N700 Series Type A Tokaido Shinkansen Suitcase

Especially for those coming from very large countries where long-distance trips are always done by plane, Japan's amazing network of trains like Shinkansen, the super-fast bullet trains that can travel at around 300 km/h (186 mph), seems too good to be true. But the Japanese do love their Shinkansen and if they given a choice, prefer it over planes. And the true fans will even get matching suitcases – like the N700 Series Type A Tokaido Shinkansen Suitcase, made from upcycled bullet train upholstery!

That doesn't mean the N700 Series Type A Tokaido Shinkansen Suitcase has been made solely for use on bullet trains! Actually, the Cabin model, the smaller of the two available sizes, has been made to conform with IATA standards for carry-on luggage. But if you're a Shinkansen fan, you'll recognize the netting on the back and the blue-pattern touch on their handles, and the ticket holders that come with them: they're also taken from real Tokyo-Kyoto Shinkansen seats! But don't think of this suitcase as purely a gimmick: it is a very stylish, durable luggage holder that accompanies you for many years on all your trips – to Japan and all over the world!
