Traveling Accessories You’ll Want For the Holidays

By Marla Milling Published December 4, 2013

If your 2014 plans include a lot of travel, we’ve found something you’ll want to put on your holiday wish list—a compact, universal Voyager case produced by Manekibook, headquartered in Prague.

Here’s what we like about this traveling companion: it has ample space for two passports, a section for paper money, a slot for three SIM cards and storage for up to 10 credit cards, license or other plastic cards. There’s also an open vertical pocket where you can tuck airplane tickets and other important items.

We also love the look and feel of the handmade Italian vegetable dyed leather. It’s definitely an item that will carry you through many travels and adventures.

Brothers Oleg and Anton Dumas founded Manekibook in 2009. Other items in their Equinox collection include the Signaller, which is a wallet case for iPhone 5/5s, the Entreprenuer, a case folder for Macbook Air 13″, and the Shturman notebook.

Sound familiar?I've done it, and so have many other cigar enthusiasts who learned the hard way that traveling with cigar torch lighters isn't as easy as throwing them in your carry-on and going on your merry way.

There were two announcements related to F1 teamware this week, both related to F1 teams that aren't in the 2025 season. Teamware is a big deal with Formula 1 racing fans who show their support by wearing team colors at Grand Prix races worldwide, where grandstands are packed with spectators sporting hats, shirts, and all manner of apparel in Ferrari red, Red Bull blue, and McLaren orange. Mixing media and reality, building on the trend, F1 recently started selling limited edition apparel with the APXGP logo of the fictional F1 team in F1 The Movie, due to launch later this month.

In a related note, fashion brand Tommy Hilfiger announced on X a new apparel partnership with the upcoming 2026 Cadillac F1 team. Hilfiger has a long history of partnering with F1 teams.
