Tired of Packing And Unpacking? This Game-Changing Suitcase Transforms Into a Wardrobe

Most suitcases force you to unpack the moment you arrive, spreading clothes across the floor, digging for that one shirt, trying to stay organized in a temporary space that barely accommodates you, leave alone your wardrobe. Drobe solves this problem by becoming your wardrobe. It doesn’t sit flat, doesn’t open in a clamshell format, and doesn’t house all your belongings in a haphazard manner. It’s haute, travel-friendly furniture that moves. The Drobe has the soul of a wardrobe in the body of a travel case, making it truly the most game-changing design the travel industry is about to experience.

A spin on the word ‘wardrobe’, the Drobe is basically a cupboard designed for travel. It’s compact, expandable, portable, modular, and TSA-friendly. When shut, it looks exactly like a travel case, complete with wheels, handle, and a metal shell. Expand it, however, and it splits apart into pieces, turning into a full-fledged wardrobe complete with 3 compartments and a hanging rod for your clothes. It somehow feels radically innovative and familiar at the same time, the kind you look at and wonder why nobody thought about it before. The best part? Never needing to unpack, because the Drobe becomes your wardrobe, whether at home or while on a trip.

Most travel cases are designed to open like a clamshell – a format that I can only assume one person designed and everyone else just blindly copied. What the Drobe showcases is entirely different. Instead of laying your travel case down flat and opening it like a massive book, the Drobe can be opened while it stands vertically. The handle slides upwards, becoming a linear rail system that allows the suitcase to expand vertically. Each compartment slides upwards, turning into a ‘shelf’ of your wardrobe that you can access without really needing to hunch over. The top of the handle works like a clothes rod, allowing users to hang clothes wardrobe-style, while an easy-access compartment on the top of the Drobe includes a fold-out mirror, turning your travel case into an impromptu dressing table.

To use the Drobe, simply disengage the handle lock and lift it up. The handle telescopes upwards, also lifting the Drobe’s compartments with it. You suddenly go from a compact flight-friendly suitcase to a three-part wardrobe that you can access comfortably. The upper section has a quick-access lid that also packs the aforementioned mirror (a brilliant touch if you ask me), while the lower sections can be used to segregate other items like innerwear, shoes, dirty laundry, basically stuff you don’t need to access immediately. The handle on top now also doubles as a clothes rod, allowing you to hang actively worn items like suits, jackets, shirts, dresses, or anything you don’t want to fold or put away.

Manufactured in Norway and already awarded by the European Product Design Awards and the New York Product Design Awards, Drobe is built unlike anything else on the market. Every part of the suitcase is made using 100 percent pure, high-quality materials to last – but built for change. The entire body, from the outer shell to the smallest internal component, can be replaced or repaired. And when you’re ready for a new style or need to refresh old parts, they can be easily swapped or sent back to be recycled into the next generation of Drobe.

Not only is this modularity and repairability a first for travel cases, but it also brings a level of modularity to your luggage, giving you the ability to repair/upgrade your mobile wardrobe. The outer panels come in a variety of colors, allowing you to choose a Drobe that fits your profile and character. And as far as durability goes, the outer metal shell absorbs impact extremely well, ensuring that your portable wardrobe is truly travel-friendly.

The Drobe builds on the best parts of European-led design. Scandinavian sensibilities with its take on minimalism and modularity, Italian materials designed to compete with leading fashion labels, and Norwegian engineering, making the luggage feel familiar yet still be radically different from anything you’ve ever seen. Pure aluminum. Clean, fully recyclable HDPE plastic for strength without weight. Swedish leather handles and interiors that develop a soft, rich patina over time. The regular trims of a travel case still exist – the caster wheels, the TSA-friendly lock, the wide telescoping handle that lets you maneuver your case across any airport. Open it, however, and you’re bound to get a bunch of awestruck stares, and even a few “where did you get this from”s.

Beyond its role as luggage, Drobe honestly serves as adaptable furniture. You don’t specifically need to use it for clothes or travel – it can double as a mobile bookcase, a stylish bar unit, or an extension of your closet, seamlessly integrating into various living spaces. This versatility makes it particularly suitable for small apartments or temporary accommodations, offering practical and flexible storage options.

This makes the Drobe just perfect for pretty much anyone who prefers a level of compactness and mobility in life. You could be living in a small rented apartment without a wardrobe, you could be fairly nomadic, wanting to move places and have a non-tethered lifestyle, you could just love the idea of a suitcase serving as a chest of drawers, or you could be Drobe’s most common audience – someone who hates packing and unpacking.

The approach of turning a suitcase into a mobile wardrobe is surely new, but the overall need isn’t. We’ve seen plenty of suitcases approach the idea of organized or modular storage, separating your clothes from your shoes, and your gadgets from your toiletry – but the Drobe fundamentally rethinks the travel case, turning it into a mobile replica of existing furniture – the wardrobe. The design bridges those two worlds better than anything I’ve ever seen before – and the fact that it’s repairable and modular just becomes the icing on this cake.
