Samsonite’s designer collaborations are coming thick and fast. Months after announcing its Black Label collection with Viktor & Rolf, the luxury luggage brand has announced its latest collaboration with McLaren.
It might seem an unlikely pairing, but it’s not the first time we’ve seen sports car inspired bags. Last month we saw Ralph Lauren launch the Scuderia collection, a range inspired by Ferrari’s race cars. Perhaps fast cars are replacing model muses in the world of fashion?
At any rate, these luxurious travel bags are a worthy edition to Samsonite’s Black Label collection. They feature the lightweight and durable design the label is famous for, and sports car features that go beyond the aesthetics. The race car style wheel suspension is sure to please jetsetters sick of struggling through airport terminals. It will also help to cushion your valuable vacation essentials.
Members of the Vodafone McLaren Mercedes team have already been spotted carrying prototypes as they travel to races around the world, but the rest of us will have to wait until next spring to see them in stores.
