Monos, the premium travel and lifestyle brand known for its sleek, design-forward luggage, has officially entered the world of aluminum suitcases. The brand’s first-ever Aluminum Collection blends high-end durability with Monos’ signature minimalist aesthetic, offering a perfect balance of form and function for modern travelers.

“Our Aluminum Collection is our most premium offering to date and features thoughtful details, from the soft-release side handle to the etched detailing on the hinges and latches, because it’s the small things that elevate the entire travel experience,” said Hubert Chan, co-founder of Monos.

The collection is crafted from aluminum and reinforced with riveted corner guards, ensuring long-lasting protection for your belongings. It includes the following four sizes:

  • Carry-On Plus – $665
  • Check-In Medium – $725
  • Check-In Large – $755
  • Trunk – $775

Each piece comes in three timeless finishes – Caviar Black, Champagne Gold, and Aspen Silver.

Beyond its sleek exterior, Monos’ aluminum luggage is engineered for a smooth, stress-free travel experience. TSA-approved combination latch locks enhance security, while whisper-quiet 360-degree spinner wheels ensure effortless maneuverability across airport terminals and city streets alike.

Inside, travelers will find a quilted taffeta lining that adds a luxurious touch, as well as compression panels that help maximize packing space and keep items organized. The soft-release side handle provides a comfortable grip, while etched hinge detailing adds a refined finish to the overall design.

One of the standout features of Monos’ aluminum luggage is how it ages gracefully over time. The brushed anodized aluminum shell naturally develops a unique patina with every trip, turning each suitcase into a personal travel diary of sorts by showing subtle signs of the adventures it’s been on.

The Monos Aluminum Collection is now available at monos.com.

Buffalo Trace is turning its distillery into a summer camp for adults
Camp Buffalo Trace offers woodworking, tastings, and overnight luxury tents, but you'll have to win a sweepstakes to get in.
Architecture, Building, Cityscape

Buffalo Trace is a legendary name, and with that comes a lot of opportunities. They've done rare bottles, NFT auctions, and a tasting room in the middle of the Wyoming wilderness. So why not do a summer camp?

The Frankfort, Kentucky-based distillery just announced Camp Buffalo Trace, an adults-only (21+) riff on the classic sleepaway camp. Just think bourbon instead of lanyards.

The Palouse: America’s Most Underrated Scenic Drive
Waterfalls, barns, and the wide open spaces the West is known for. All at the tip of your fingers in the Pacific Northwest
Field, Grassland, Nature

When Americans talk about spectacular landscapes, they usually mention the obvious headliners: the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite, the Rocky Mountains, or the dramatic coastlines of California and Oregon. Far fewer people have heard of the Palouse, a remarkable agricultural region straddling eastern Washington and western Idaho.

That is a shame because the Palouse is one of the most visually distinctive landscapes in North America—and one of the most rewarding road trips you can take in the Pacific Northwest. I have visited this area several times, both as a destination in its own right and on my way through to the Idaho Panhandle.
