BOSE QUIETCOMFORT EARBUDS
We often travel to seek peace and quiet. These comfortable noise-cancelling earbuds ensure you’ll always have it everywhere you go, thanks to the very latest technology. You’ll get high-fidelity audio when tapping your toes to your favourite tunes. A special setting allows you to also hear your surroundings while listening to music, ideal if you’re jogging or cycling, for greater safety. $349, bose.ca
HEYS SMART LUGGAGE 21”
It may look like an ordinary bag, but it has a lot of useful technology built into it. Made from 100 per cent polycarbonate, it uses a special app, which allows travellers to lock and unlock their bag remotely. The handle has an integrated scale feature so you know how much your bag weighs, good for preventing over-packing. Plus, this suitcase (shown in burgundy) also has a proximity alarm, which will sound when you’re a certain distance away from it, ensuring you can keep track of your stuff easier. $599, ca.heys.com
