Luxury luggage brand RIMOWA and fashion icon Rick Owens have joined forces to create a truly unique travel piece of fashion history, and an iconic piece of luggage – the RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze.
The RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze is the result of a limited edition collaboration where Rick Owns has reimagined the iconic RIMOWA travel system, and introduced a quirky patinated finish, coupled with a fully leather interior - a first for the RIMOWA brand, and exudes the distinctly dark Rick Owens aesthetic, and aims to push the boundaries of luxury travel luggage.
This limited-edition collaboration will launch on January 30, 2025 both online and in stores - but there are just 500 numbered pieces available to purchase. This is a statement luggage piece that pushes the boundaries of design and craftsmanship, and is directly aimed at the discerning, fashion-forward, international traveller.
A One-of-a-Kind Travel Companion
The RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze luggage is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of both brands.
And this limited edition collaboration marks a first for RIMOWA – a fully leather interior.
Differing from the traditional iconic RIMOWA brushed or shiny aluminum exterior, the limited edition luggage piece has been transformed with a unique, patinated finish. Achieved through a meticulous manual process, this has created a one-of-a-kind aged effect, ensuring no two suitcases are exactly alike.
As the suitcase journeys with its owner, the patina of the leather will deepen and scuff, adding to its character and individuality.
The lining and flex dividers have all been crafted from high-quality leather sourced directly from Rick Owens, adding a further luxurious touch underscoring the exceptional quality and attention to detail that defines both brands.
Only 500 numbered pieces of the RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze will be available worldwide. Each suitcase comes with a unique luggage tag, developed and produced by Rick Owens in Italy. This tag features natural-length coarse hair, adding a textural element and further blurring the lines between RIMOWA's clean aesthetic and Owens's signature style.
Both brands have embraced minimalism in the design. The exterior features discreet logos from both RIMOWA and Rick Owens, while the interior boasts a similar subtle branding approach with embossed logos on leather labels.
Priced for the Discerning Traveller
The RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze will be available for purchase starting January 30th, 2025, at select RIMOWA and Rick Owens stores worldwide, as well as online at RIMOWA.com and RickOwens.eu.
With a retail price of €2900, this limited-edition piece is an investment for the fashion-forward traveler seeking a truly unique and luxurious travel companion.
