Innovation Protected: Ricardo Beverly Hills Secures U.S. Trademark for SmartStand® Innovation isn't always about reinventing an entire product. Sometimes it's about solving a simple, everyday problem that makes travel easier. We are excited to share that on July 21st, 2026, the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) officially granted trademark registration for SmartStand®, Ricardo Beverly Hills' proprietary feature describing a luggage handle incorporating a built-in cell phone stand. In today's world, travelers rely on their smartphones for everything—from boarding passes and navigation to video calls and entertainment while waiting at the gate. SmartStand® was designed to make those moments more convenient by transforming a standard luggage handle into a practical hands-free phone stand. While the feature itself enhances the travel experience, securing the SmartStand® trademark represents something even more significant. It reflects our commitment to investing in meaningful product innovation, building distinctive brand assets, and protecting the ideas that differentiate our products in a highly competitive marketplace. Developing great products requires collaboration across product development, engineering, sourcing, marketing, and legal teams. Bringing an idea from concept to market—and ultimately securing intellectual property protection—is the result of countless hours of creativity, refinement, and teamwork. At Ricardo Beverly Hills, we believe that innovation should be purposeful. Every feature we develop should answer a real traveler need while reinforcing the quality and thoughtful design our customers expect from our brand. Receiving the SmartStand® trademark is another step in that journey, and we're excited to continue creating products that make traveling smarter, easier, and more enjoyable. Congratulations to everyone who helped bring SmartStand® from an idea to a protected brand asset. Here's to many more innovations ahead.

There are product reviews... and then there are stories that remind you why you do what you do. Twenty-five years ago, Daniel Castro, from San Francisco, received a red Ricardo carry-on as a gift from his mother-in-law. What followed is something none of us could have imagined. 🌎 65 countries ✈️ 2,500+ flights 🛫 105 different airlines 🧳 25 years of adventures While colleagues teased him for carrying the same well-worn red suitcase year after year, he proudly declined every offer to replace it. Why? Because it never gave him a reason to. Today, the wheels show decades of miles. The fabric carries the marks of thousands of journeys. Yet it still travels with him every other day. His words meant the world to our team: "My Ricardo luggage has exceeded every expectation... It has carried not only my belongings but also countless memories from around the world." At Ricardo Beverly Hills, we don't just design luggage to survive the next trip—we strive to create travel companions that become part of people's lives. Every material selected, every wheel tested, every zipper inspected, and every quality check completed is done with the hope that our products will be there for the journeys that matter most. To everyone on our product development, sourcing, quality assurance, operations, and manufacturing teams: this story belongs to you. Your dedication has helped create something that lasted not just years, but decades. To Daniel, and our customer: thank you for trusting us with 25 years of memories. We couldn't ask for a greater compliment. Here's to building luggage that doesn't just go the distance—it becomes part of the journey.

This year we didn't just attend the Travel Goods Association Show in Salt Lake City––we turned it into an opportunity to tell bigger stories. By collaborating with amazingly talented content creators and influencers attending TravelCon, we extended the energy of the show well beyond the convention floor. Following the three-day industry event, our team spent another three days exploring Salt Lake City and some of Utah's most breathtaking landscapes, creating authentic travel moments that bring our collections to life. Because great luggage isn't just about the journey you take—it's about the stories you create along the way. #TravelWell #ArriveBetter

At Ricardo Beverly Hills, the strength of our brand is shaped by the people behind it—and today we take a moment to recognize the incredible women who help move our company forward every single day.

Throughout the year, they bring creativity, resilience, and expertise that influence every part of our business—from product innovation and design to operations, partnerships, and customer experience. Their work helps shape not only the products we create, but the culture we build: one that values collaboration, inclusion, respect, and forward thinking.
