The RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze suitcase has been created in collaboration between the luxe luggage brand and the iconic fashion designer as a new take on the former's signature case. The suitcase features the familiar silhouette of the Original Cabin case, which is reimagined with a bronzed finish that gives it a statuesque appearance for onlookers to admire. The case is paired with a full leather lining that is meant to mimic the look and feel of a pair of leather gloves for a supple touch.
The RIMOWA x Rick Owens Original Cabin Bronze suitcase is limited to 500 examples, each numbered and priced at €2,900, which will be available via both brand's websites starting January 30, 2025.
