RIMOWA, the German Maison synonymous with mobility and modern craftsmanship, extends its iconic aluminium collection with the unveiling of the Original Backpack in Silver. Engineered in Cologne, this debut design reimagines the brand’s aviation-inspired codes for a new era of travel and daily life.
Sleek yet uncompromising, the backpack carries the unmistakable DNA of the Original suitcase — from the grooved aluminium shell with rounded corners to the newly developed latch-lock, crafted in a premium metal finish that feels as refined as it looks.
Designed for versatility, it transitions seamlessly between office and airport lounge. Comfort is assured through breathable padded backing and adjustable straps, while a discreet exterior pocket and a webbing strap — woven with Cologne’s coordinates — hint at RIMOWA’s heritage and attention to detail. Inside, an adaptable layout takes centre stage: a removable pouch, practical divider with multiple compartments, and a dedicated slot for a 16-inch laptop. The grey nylon lining and leather trims further elevate the piece, enriched with an engraved monogram that marks it unmistakably RIMOWA.
The Original Backpack in Silver embodies the brand’s century-long pursuit of innovation, drawing from its legacy of aluminium mastery first introduced in the 1920s. Today, it arrives as a functional yet fashionable companion for the contemporary traveller — whether crossing continents or navigating city streets.
Available worldwide and online from September 17, 2025, the backpack retails at SGD $3,200, a piece of design history ready to be carried into the future
