At last a flexible multi-bag system takes sports kit and equipment from home to far away

Live Luggage is launching a new powered triple bag sports luggage system specifically designed for sports men and women on the move, whether going from home to the local sports ground or travelling to sporting activities around the world. The new 2012 Sports Bag is a multifunctional luggage system which includes a large weekend bag for heavy-duty items like ski boots, a multi-purpose rucksack and a capacious main case, which all zip together and apart for complete flexibility. Featuring patented Live Luggage powered wheels and an anti-gravity handle, this 2012 sports bag makes light work of hauling sports equipment of all kinds from car to train to plane and even uphill and is the one-purchase flexible luggage solution for the stylish amateur or professional sportsperson. Weight is a major consideration when flying these days, so Live Luggage designed the 2012 sports bag system so all three bags are detachable, with the weekend bag and rucksack meeting current dimensional requirements for hand luggage. The spacious main bag is big enough for a whole holiday�s worth of sports wear and personal belongings. When attached to the main anti-gravity handle system using simple clips it can take heavy loads such as skis, cricket bats, hockey sticks, or several tennis racquets easily. For real style when carrying everyday possessions on the go, there�s a rucksack with a padded internal pocket for keeping an MP3 player securely inside out of sight, with a port to the outside for the headphones. The 2012 Sports Bag features high-technology powered wheels and a clever patented anti-gravity handle system with tilt switches and force sensors which took six years to develop. The result is luggage which feels as light as a feather, powers up when it senses gradients and kerbs and takes all the weight and effort out of pulling. The pancake motors (Nano technology) in the wheels are powered by rechargeable batteries and last up to 1.5 miles off a single charge, recharging easily just like a mobile phone (a charger and multi-country adaptor are included).

Designed by the well-known London fashion designer Jacqui Ma, it combines cool styling with functionality. Jacqui comments: �This is such a unique product. The idea of combining Live Luggage�s powered technology with specially-designed bags for the sports person is brilliant. It�s about making individuals and teams feel at ease when travelling and about arriving in style and with confidence. Getting to your destination with the right clothing and equipment in a flexible sports bag system gets your training session or sports holiday off to the best possible start. Once you've arrived, the 2012 Sports Bag can be separated into different bags for everyday use, then it all zips together again and onto the powered handle system for an easy trip back home � it�s both practical and fashionable.� The 2012 Sports Bag will be previewing at the Metro Ski and Snow Board Show, Olympia London from 21-25th October (Stand 210) and will be priced at �445. It will be available in two colours: black and white, all black with yellow logo. P lease go to www.liveluggage.com to Media Centre to download hi-res images.
