Courchevel Lacroix Ski Set

Filed under: Sports

For those with the money to make it to the most exclusive ski resorts, you need a luxury travel trunk. The Courchevel Exclusive is a limited edition of just ten trunks which each hold a pair of 'Courchevel Exclusive' skis, Lacroix Smartrack bindings, full carbon ski poles, leather ski gloves, ski goggles and two leather pouches. The trunk was custom made by Pinel & Pinel of Paris (whose luxury cases we've swooned over before). It has sleek details of carbon fiber and steel with full-grain leather upholstery inside and outside, with a drawer and corner-mounted wheels. The trunk also comes with a full one-year 3 Vallées ski pass, maintenance service, storage and delivery. It sells for 50,000 euros.

Piaget Collector's Trunk

One thing I've learned after spending time with serious watch collectors is that their obsession is only limited by their wallets or what their spouses might let them get away with. For serious Piaget aficionados there is the Piaget Collector's Trunk created by luxury trunk maker Pinel & Pinel. It is made of poplar wood covered with cowhide with palladium-electroplated brass with mirror-polished finish. It holds 51 watches and there is a movement integrated into the center window to wind automatic watches. It comes with a travel case that holds three watches. "Essential collector's tools" and a remote control to switch the lights inside on and off are also included. It is available in 20 different colors of leather for both the inside and the outside and can be personalized with an engraved plate. Custom trunks take three months to create.

I've seen foldable bikes before but not ones with their own posh trunk. The foldable Brompton bike in a box from luxury trunk makers Pinel & Pinel makes packing for a weekend jaunt easy. The leather-covered trunk is available in a variety of colors and has nickeled brass handles. It sells for $12,000 from Vivre.
