RIMOWA and Rick Owens Unveil a Sleek Luggage Collaboration
RIMOWA and Rick Owens have teamed up for an exclusive new luggage design, blending the craftsmanship of RIMOWA with Owens’ signature industrial edge. The collaboration features RIMOWA’s iconic Cabin roller, wrapped in a patinated finish that embodies Owens’ gritty aesthetic, creating a rugged, yet luxurious, look.
This limited-edition piece is numbered, with only 500 units available, each showcasing a distinct patina developed through a meticulous manual pigment process. Over time, the suitcase will develop a unique character, as the finish deepens and evolves.
True to Rick Owens' bold design philosophy, the interior is lined entirely with leather, and a hair-on cowskin tag adds an extra touch of luxury. Custom nylon webbing with embossed RIMOWA x Rick Owens logos graces the leather tabs, completing the sophisticated design. Produced in Germany at RIMOWA’s renowned factory, the collaborative roller is priced at $3,525 USD.
