First Class

WORDS BY Samantha Gurrie

In the foreword to The Big New Yorker Book of Dogs, writer Malcom Gladwell recalls a neighbor who smuggled her dog around town “in the bowels of her Hermés bag.” Oh the shame, of being tossed into a carryall along with an owner’s keys and compact. Lucky for jet-setting pets everywhere, dog product label Cloud 7 and travel brand TUMI have collaborated on a luxury flight carrier and accessories.

“Cloud 7’s aesthetic is very elegant,” says TUMI’s Alan Krantzler. “Many pet carriers in the market have a trendy approach, but Cloud 7 designs focus on functionality, and how products can fit perfectly into the most sophisticated lifestyle.” With airline regulations in mind, the two creative teams fashioned a design-conscious carrier with a plush wool interior, water-resistant lining and shoulder strap that doubles as a leash.

“It had to look classy, and offer the dog (and owner) comfort and functionality when planning a trip,” adds Cloud 7’s Todd Schulz of the collection, which also comprises a travel bed and a set of collapsible bowls. “The design and construction is quite complex.”

Our precious cargo would expect nothing less.

PACK OF DOGS

Have you ever imagined Amy Winehouse or Nick Cave as a Chihuahua, Neil Young as a Vizsla, or PJ Harvey as an Afghan hound? That’s exactly what San Francisco-based artist Michael Gillette has done through his unique illustration project, blending beloved, iconic music legends, both past and present, with their dog counterparts. Pack of Dogs, our first foray into book publishing, is a celebration of pup and pop culture for music and dog lovers alike.
