[RIMOWA] Commemorating the new Essential collection colors, a Japan-original Pokémon collection is released

Since its founding in 1898, RIMOWA has continued to create innovative items through precision engineering, sophisticated design, and highly durable materials. Furthermore, collaborations with attractive brands and companies play a vital role in the evolution of the brand's creativity, bringing new value to travel and craftsmanship while delivering surprise and joy to people. Now, with deep respect for Japan, which has warmly welcomed RIMOWA since the 1970s, we are announcing a Japan-original collection to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Pokémon. This collection was born from a special partnership between RIMOWA and Pokémon, both sharing the themes of "adventure" and "meeting friends." Born in Germany and Japan respectively, both brands pour their passion into "traveling" and "new discoveries" through this initiative. The collection features three types of leather luggage charms, a sticker set, and playful wheel sets. The illustrations on the charms and stickers feature the latest seasonal colors of the Essential collection, "Magenta" and "Orange," released on April 23, 2026. The Italian leather charms depict Pikachu, Charmander, and Charizard playing with sophisticated suitcases. Pikachu is paired with the iconic "Silver" suitcase. Charmander is paired with the vibrant "Orange" suitcase, and Charizard with the sophisticated "Magenta" suitcase. The sticker set features Pikachu along with the three starter Pokémon from Pokémon Red and Green: Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. The wheel sets are compatible with the "RIMOWA UNIQUE" service, fitting all Classic models and Cabin-sized Original and Essential suitcases. Finished in the red and white colors of a Poké Ball, the center of the wheel features the RIMOWA monogram logo inspired by Cologne Cathedral. These items express the "start of a journey" with a nostalgic mood, incorporating Pokémon from the original games to celebrate the 30th anniversary.
