Louis Vuitton Goes For Gold
Made to protect the trophy in a vessel worthy of its greatness, Louis Vuitton and the NBA hand-crafted a new Travel Trunk. Drawing inspiration from the trunks the Maison has been making for the past 160 years. Integrating new designs with a classic form, the trunk features an interior lined with a soft microfibre that features the NBA's 75th Anniversary logo, kept safe by an exterior covered in symbolic Monogram canvas and sturdy brass closures and fittings.
Dedicated to luggage, this new collection celebrates the values of basketball, something that was cherished by Abloh and mirrored in all of the pieces he created for the Maison. Highlighting the organization's penchant for unity, fearlessness, and universal opportunity - a practice that was especially important to Abloh and shone through in every project he took on.
This collection spotlights the essence of basketball, bringing forward the sports uplifting energy and significance of teamwork. This Trophy Case is another landmark in Louis Vuitton's history of creating custom travel cases for some of the sporting world's most iconic trophies. Once more farthing the idea that "Victory travels in Louis Vuitton."
