Your Items
Hi there,
My family started CALPAK in 1989, for one simple reason: to make quality bags at accessible prices. When I joined the company in 2013, we already had a strong foundation in travel goods, but there was one problem: I didn’t see myself or my friends reflected in our products—or anywhere else in the travel industry. Nothing out there fit our tastes or lifestyles. So, with a new customer in mind, I set out to evolve our family’s brand, and create items based in thoughtful, modern design and self-expression. The items I wanted, but couldn’t find. I'm always excited to hear which products our customers love, and what they want to see next—and I can only hope to keep pushing boundaries, and getting better with age. It’s been a great 30 years—thanks for going places with us.
California Pak was born in LA in 1989. The creative baby of Edward and Judy Kwon, we started out as a collection of handbags and wallets.
Edward and Judy took their line to the next level, and began focusing on travel goods like duffels and soft luggage.
Edward and Judy grew the brand yet again, and started creating hard-sided luggage.
Jennifer and Roy, Edward and Judy's kids, joined CALPAK—and rebranded the logo and products to reflect their modern, boundary-pushing spirits.
We collaborated with some of our favorites, launching a collection with Oh Joy!, and Jen Atkin.
To celebrate our 30th birthday, we had our very first in-person pop-up shop!
Through community outreach and involvement, we let our voices do the traveling.
The CALPAK product line expanded into wellness and apparel– and we can't wait to see what's next!
We pushed boundaries with our marble collection in 2016 —
and we’ve been evolving ever since.
