The inspiration behind the Natura collection
The name says it all. The inspiration for the Natura collection comes from nature. The collection is a response to the desire of taking responsibility for the world around us, both on our travels and beyond. With this collection, we hope to inspire you to make more conscious choices. At the same time, it’s also up to us to make responsible choices when it comes to our products. Are we there yet? Certainly not. But every small step we can take is a step in the right direction.
Taking care of nature, is taking care of yourself
Responsible choices
Taking care of nature, others, and yourself is at the heart of the Natura collection. But how can you do that?
Taking care of nature
We live in a time where you sometimes feel like you’re lost. We are overtaken by technology, spending an average of five and a half hours a day behind a screen. A wonderful remedy for the hustle and bustle of everyday life is nature. Out there, time seems to slow down, your senses sharpen, and the air feels more welcoming. The Natura collection is inspired by that feeling.
And when you love something, you want to protect it, right? Taking care of nature, especially when travelling. How you do that is up to you. You could, for example, consider a train journey through various countries or go on a trip in your own country. Or you can choose activities with a lower environmental impact, such as hiking, mountain biking, or canoeing. Try not to overconsume while travelling and consider ethical souvenirs from local artists. And, of course, always stay on marked trails in nature and leave no litter behind.
Taking care of others
Making responsible choices while travelling doesn't stop with taking care of nature and the environment. You can also have a positive impact on the people you encounter along the way.
Think about supporting local businesses by staying at a small-scale accommodation. Buy food from local farmers or the local market. Choose a female guide. Be open to other cultures and share some of your own culture. Travel more slowly so that you can truly get to know your destination, its people, and their customs, habits, and traditions.
Taking care of yourself
Don't forget yourself either. You can't take care of the world around you if you don't take care of yourself. What self-care means to you while travelling is very personal. Perhaps it's a nice warm bath after a long hike. Maybe it's an afternoon at the beach or a morning run in the cool air. Or a luxury meal prepared by a local top chef.
SUITSUIT contributes its part
When you think of responsible travel, you probably think of the mode of transportation. A road trip nearby instead of a long-haul flight vacation. A city trip by train. But have you ever thought about your suitcase, bag, or travel accessories?
With the Natura suitcase, you make a more sustainable choice. It is made of 96% recycled PET. Of that, 50% is post-consumer PET, and 46% is pre-consumer PET. We like transparency and fair play, so if you want to know more about what this exactly means, take a look here.
Inspired by natural elements
The Natura collection was designed with a focus on sustainability, incorporating not only sustainable materials but also colours that reflect nature. These 5 natural colours give the suitcases a timeless look, making them versatile items that can easily be paired with other items.
Not only the colours but also the shape and details of the collection are inspired by nature. From the imprint of a leaf on the suitcase’s wheel to the wavy design of the handle, and the rounded, organic corners.
