More about James and "Lady James" Meret
James does away with the prejudiced, old-fashioned image of the traditional "pensioner's Porsche" and becomes a confident statement for cool "best-agers," students, and active seniors alike—a new, modern shopping lifestyle that values quality of life, the environment, health, and mobility. James stands for the courage to be an individual, a flair for styling, and the joy of design, adding a dash of colorful, original pep to the grey everyday grind. Do you "James" yet, or are you still lugging things around?
Allow me to introduce: James.
James – the iconic shopping butler is the world's first designer shopping trolley, named after the legendary butler James in the world-famous New Year's Eve film "Dinner for One." James is a personality with character, so never call him a "shopping cart," "trolley," "hacker-Porsche," or heaven forbid, a "beater"—always call him by his name, "James," and he will remain a loyal companion to you for many years to come.
With his cool, colorful, and stylish appearance in over 175 different individual designs, James radically breaks with the old-fashioned and dusty image of his run-of-the-mill predecessors, becoming an attractive personal companion for modern people of all generations who no longer want to carry heavy loads. He is a must-have for a style-conscious urban society that values quality of life, health, mobility, and environmental protection; he relieves burdens, protects your back, encourages movement, complements gentle mobility, enables car-free, on-foot shopping in the local area, supports regional trade, helps avoid plastic bags, and does it all with unmistakable style, confident charm, and colorful extravagance that brings life and fun to the grey daily routine.
James is much more than a trolley; James is an attitude toward life, a lifestyle, a fun-loving cult; he is your personal butler who will stand by your side from now on and make your life royally easier!
James is produced in high quality, and due to its variety, in only small quantities by "Lady James" Meret—a one-woman startup in Vienna, Austria. Robust tarpaulin fabric and high-quality chassis ensure longevity, and should it ever be necessary, repair and spare parts service are a top priority.
The Lady behind James
Meret Barz is "Lady James." After a successful theater career, the artist from Basel made a striking change of direction and invented James. Why? Because she couldn't find a shopping trolley that was cool enough for a modern, stylish, and confident woman like herself.
Since then, she has dedicated herself to the development and international expansion of the James brand and tirelessly designs ever-new variations of the magnificent James boxes.
