Travel brand Rimowa is known for its premium travel accessories, crafted with its signature aluminum design. With the release of its new 'Original Pilot Silver,' the German brand is now exploring its past releases in a new light. The new suitcase modernizes Rimowa's 'Original Pilot,' a pilot's case initially launched in 1994. The revamped version has a multi-wheel movement mechanism, a stage-free telescoping handle, and the brand's distinctive aluminum body.
The case also has multiple pockets for extra storage, a cushioned compartment, and an adjustable interior. A vintage sticker pack with five unique Rimowa designs referencing aviation corporations from the 1990s allows consumers to achieve that movie-style luggage look.
The Rimowa brand currently offers the 'Original Pilot Silver' for $1,500 USD.
