The Eames Office x Globe Eames Lounge Cruiser has been added to the ongoing collaboration between the brands as a skateboard that pays homage to one of the most recognizable furniture designs in history.
Inspired by the Eames Lounge Chair, the skateboard comes in Ash/White, Walnut/Black and Black Oak/Black editions that measure in at 30-inches, 32-inches and 38-inches, respectively. The two-tone finish of the skateboards acts as a nod to the lounge chair and is no doubt likely to be a must-have for avid furniture aficionados.
The Eames Office x Globe Eames Lounge Cruiser is priced ranging from $260 to $340, depending on the size, and each come with an Eames Dot Pattern tote for easy carrying or storage.
