German brand pinqponq launches a stylish urban shopper trolley in two colorways. The KART bag definitely causes consumers to raise an eyebrow as the silhouette is quite ironic. Tapping into the aesthetic of boomers at the farmer's market, this youth-focused activation presents a modern take on the urban shopper trolley.
pinqponq's design is truly for the tech-savvy and an ideal companion for travelers who are looking to exude maximum comfort at the airport. The silhouette is quite versatile as the bag can be used as a messenger bag, a carry-on, a backpack and, of course, as the controversial stylish shopping trolley. The total capacity is 60 liters and pinqponq's design includes a designated compartment for shoes, laptops, as well as a document sleeve for easy access. The product is made out of 100% recycled plastic.
