Cumulus Singapore | Carry Retailers
Cumulus Singapore | Carry Retailers
Do you know what product dominates the world of carry? Where the most volume is done across bags, wallets, luggage and carry utility?
It’s in give-away bags for companies and conferences. Those terrible cheap things with “Jim’s Franchisee Conference 2010 Las Vegas” poorly embroidered on a patch at the front.
That’s pretty sad.
The next biggest area is in really boring derivative styles for terrible department stores and carry shops that have zero differentiation or personality points. Then way down the chain, past the cheap school bags and boring wallets, and only doing relatively tiny volumes, is the world of carry we love.
This is the world with versatile but interesting designs; expensive enough to avoid major compromises, but not up at that pretentious luxury level that is more about signalling than substance.
These are the brands we post about and love, but amongst the ocean of mediocrity, they can be a little daunting to find. Enter the great Carry Retailers (concluding the longest intro in our history)…
Cumulus is a store in Singapore started this year by Irwin. Irwin loves bags and carry, and trawls the internet in search of gold. On first finding their Facebook page, I lost about an hour of my life chasing links and getting carry envy. There’s some great stuff there.
They don’t have online purchase options, but they do have a great stream of finds and updates, and they are really not that far from Singapore Changi airport if you find yourself on a stop-over.
About now is when we would list all the great brands they carry, however they are basically all the brands we talk about, plus a few surprises. So just go and have a play on their Facebook page instead.
