RIMOWA Essential Ultramarine

RIMOWA paints its polycarbonate Essential line Ultramarine blue and Umber brown, matching every zipper, handle and wheel housing so the case reads as one continuous color.

Pigment Season

Cologne's latest drop pulls two colors from the painter's kit. Ultramarine borrows from lapis lazuli, the blue that once cost more than gold on Renaissance panels, while Umber takes its name from shadow itself. Both land on Essential polycarbonate and Groove calfskin, and the campaign follows Joe Alwyn through a studio where those pigments become part of the furniture.

One Color, Edge to Edge

On Essential, the shell is only the start. The telescopic handle, zipper tape, Multiwheels and badge are molded and finished in the same Ultramarine or Umber, so nothing breaks the monochrome. Inside, a full-zip side and RIMOWA's Flex Divider keep packing tight, with TSA locks and a lifetime warranty behind the hardware.

Cabin to Trunk

The Cabin carry-on lands at about 36 liters and from $990 in the US, with Check-In M and L and the Trunk Plus filling out the sizes. Groove adds a Mini Shopping Bag, cross-body and pouch in Italian calfskin. Everything is live now at RIMOWA stores and online.
