Some great new Hlaska bags. Check them out if you’re shopping for a messenger, briefcase, duffle or even wallet.

Lost luggage is the worst. And it seems, no matter what trouble you go to to prevent yours from being misplaced – designer bags, vibrant tags, etc. – it doesn’t really make a difference to the airlines or that person who was convinced that they snagged the right bag. But now, maybe you can find your stuff, even if it was brought home by some random traveler. That is if the site, Is This Your Luggage kicks off a new, useful trend.

After an airport “loses” a bag, it tries to contact the owner. If they’re unsuccessful, they hang onto it for a while and then, auction it off. The owner of the site attends such auctions, purchases these bags, then snaps shots of everything in the bag in the hope they may connect the missing luggage with its rightful owner. Weird that some random stranger is touching your stuff – including your sexy nurse’s outfit – but at least you’ll be able to wear your treasured clothes once again.

Leather that looks well-traveled but isn’t may seem like an upscale take on those $200 jeans with holes, but Marc Marmel’s luggage collection stands to look good much longer than your distressed denim. The designer takes his cue from vintage Hermès, creating a line for stylish travelers using hand cracked Italian leather and colorful silks. His Klondike weekender bag and Mini-Cigar duffle would be equally appealing on weekend errands as far away travels. And if you still haven’t gotten grunge out of your system, he’s also created a Les Paul guitar case that retails at Barneys for $4400.
