Antler
Antler, a proud and pioneering British company with 100 years of expertise in the luggage industry.
Where it all began
It all began in 1914 when the son of a famous bicycle seat manufacturer John Boultbee Brooks decided to enter the passenger luggage market, producing leather wardrobe trunks for ocean voyages and unique motor trunks which were attached to cars. A keen interest in wildlife led to the adoption of the stag’s head and antlers as the brand symbol for the luggage line which was used for over 90 years.
The war effort
During the Second World War, through necessity, we started producing haversacks, webbing belts and military equipment. After the war there was a return to the luggage business, with innovation playing a part again with the development of soft-sided luggage with rich, quality linings.
Mass air travel
Tourism boomed in the 1950’s as air travel became more accessible and affordable. We endeavoured to keep one step ahead of changing consumer demands with innovative products like ‘Airstream’ which combined soft and hard materials and fabrics in one suitcase.

Design revolution
At the end of the 20th century we continued to forge ahead with new products, entering the hard luggage market and introducing quality leather goods. We also played a key part in the roller case revolution which changed the way we get around today. More recently the explosion in technology and portable computing has given the opportunity to put our experience and design skills into developing a range of products to meet the needs of today’s mobile workforce.
Antler in 2014
This year we celebrate our centenary and one hundred years of Great British Design. As an innovative, pioneering company we have always felt the need to move with the times. So the Antler brand you see today is a fresh, contemporary expression of what we stand for and believe in. Everything we do is based on the flair and culture of British design and underpinned by our own rich heritage of craftsmanship.
We’re proud of our history and heritage and we’ve drawn on this wealth of experience to develop a wide range of suitcases, handbags, casual bags and travel accessories. We understand that we have a history and legacy to protect so we know provided we continue to produce products our customers love and keep coming back for, and do that with style, value and honesty, that legacy is in safe hands.
