Great Minds Think Alike

We’re bringing the full force of the creative minds that have led us to where we are today, and sharing our strategies with our new sister company. It was a no-brainer to team up with another Dutch Brand whose ethos and values are so similar to ours. Just like Ekster, Travelteq has an eye for everyday convenience that leads to innovative, stylish products. They thought of integrating a wireless power bank into their bags, with a custom built pocket to slip you phone into without the hassle. How many times have you gotten off a flight with 10% battery left on your phone and no idea how to get to the hotel? It’s ingenious little additions like this that made us fall in love with Travelteq as a brand and led to our decision to combine forces.

Our Mission

When we were offered an opportunity to share our success with Travelteq, we knew that our brands would be stronger together. Our combined mission is to create beautifully designed, and entirely functional smart products to streamline your life, and here’s how:

  • A philosophy of innovative design: we take the old accessory you’re used to seeing and update, adapt and perfect it for the modern world.

  • A dedication to the best materials: Ekster and Travelteq only use the highest quality, sustainably sourced leather and materials for our products.

  • A mission to streamline everyday life: we create products that save you time, money and stress so you can focus on what’s important.

The Bag Specialists

You know what to expect from Ekster, but what can you expect from Travelteq? Their bags incorporate the timeless allure of quality leather goods and the innovative incorporation of smart features, bringing together the best of old-world craftsmanship and modern technology.

One of the best examples of this is their Original Briefcase. On the outside: ultra smooth Italian Vacchetta leather with premium Limonta® nylon detailing, ergonomically designed handles that make carrying comfortable and easily slide onto luggage for stress-free travel. On the inside: a custom internal Powerbank pocket for wireless charging, a padded laptop compartment and handy pockets for organising all your essentials (with a hidden pocket for valuables).



If you love the ease, style and time-saving benefits of an Ekster accessory, you’re going to die for the way you move through life with a Travelteq bag. Once you upgrade, you’ll never want to go back to that old backpack.
