Go for Broke | T. Anthony’s Alligator Calf Collection

|By EDWARD BARSAMIAN| January 21, 2011, 6:45 pm T. Anthony alligator calf duffel, $895, wheeled one-suiter, $1,900, and packing case, $2,200. Go to tanthony.com.Since 1946, T. Anthony has provided the upper crust with an alternative to its French rivals with equal parts luxury and versatility. That isn’t to say that the old guard doesn’t have a fondness for the finer things — at a price, of course. T. Anthony’s latest luggage pieces, the alligator calf collection, blends the other half’s need for long-lasting quality luggage (the leather is from a tannery in Italy) with rich yet tastefully understated style. Embossed to mimic alligator hides in a deep chocolate, the prices — ranging from $895 for a classic duffel to $2,200 for a 31-inch wheeled packing case — won’t make you shed any crocodile tears. Think of the collection as a guaranteed first-class upgrade the next time you travel.
