Louis Vuitton's Trophy Case Was Designed with Riot Games
Ellen Smith — October 30, 2020 — Tech
The winner of Riot Games' League of Legends event will receive a Louis Vuitton trophy case. In-person sporting events have been cancelled, creating the perfect opportunity for eSports to take the centre stage, and designer brands are getting in on the action by partnering with different online gaming platforms.
Louis Vuitton is the most recent example of this, offering their design expertise with a luxe trophy holder for whoever wins the upcoming competition. According to Riot’s Head of Global Esports Partnerships Naz Aletaha “Louis Vuitton has a tradition of honoring the most prestigious trophies in the world of sports, and we are honored that the Summoner’s Cup is no exception.”
The final Worlds match will occur in Shanghai.
