Let your luggage roll on Pirellis…

High performance tyres for your suitcase? Not quite, but at least the name offers go-fast cred. Pirelli has paired with Montblanc to launch a new limited edition trolley collection.

The lightweight trolley cases feature high-performance ball-bearing wheels and a precision handle bar; Pirelli says the cases are “designed for intrepid business and leisure travellers who expect efficiency, reliability and comfort from their luggage.” The trolleys’ aesthetics are enhanced with details inspired by iconic design cues, including a Pirelli tyre tread pattern.

Based on the original Montblanc #MY4810 trolley design, the Montblanc x Pirelli limited edition  was created along with Pirelli Design, specialised in conceiving innovative projects in collaboration with partners par excellence and features: Blue polycarbonate lightweight shell; black rubberised leather trimming; 360° degree ball-bearing wheels with yellow Pirelli and curved lines trademarks that draw their inspiration from the colour codes of Pirelli competition tyres; multi-stop precision handle bar adorned with collaboration signature; Pirelli’s  P Zero wheel tread motif embossed on yellow and black luggage tags and on trolley leather trimming.

“There are only a few companies that continue to innovate with the same spirit and passion as Pirelli, continuously contributing new technology and equipment to the world of high performance racing but also to luxury motoring experience,” says Nicolas Baretzki, chief executive officer of Montblanc. “We have paired this unrelenting spirit with Montblanc’s own spirit of exploration to create travel companions that would offer the best durability, reliability and enhanced mobility for today’s traveller, but with a stylish Pirelli twist to complement the Montblanc design.”

The Montblanc x Pirelli limited edition is made up of a #MY4810 trolley cabin and a #MY4810 trolley cabin with pocket. Just 5,000 pieces are available. The collection was launched during the Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghai.
