Louis Vuitton Presents Its New 2025 Men’s Ski Collection By Pharrell Williams
Luxferity, 23.10.2024
Skiing is a mode of life. A culture in its own right, it mirrors the LVERS ideology at the heart of the Louis Vuitton Studio Prêt-à-Porter Homme: the philosophy of a global community tied together by a passion for the discernment, savoir-faire and iconography central to the Maison. The Louis Vuitton 2025 Ski Collection applies the principles of Men’s Creative Director Pharrell Williams to a fully authentic skiwear proposition created for the slopes and beyond. Crafted with sustainable materials, it is conceived as a complete wardrobe for an active lifestyle of LVERS devoted to the excellence of their sport and the wardrobe that frames it.
v-40 Stormy Gray On Block Bracelet
Developed according to the technical principles of skiwear, performance garments are waterproof and windproof and imbued with functional details such as ski pass holders, inside goggle pockets and ventilations zips under the arms and thighs. The collection further encompasses après-ski proposals hybridised in nature to transition from one environment to another. Cut in elegant lines, they include luxury pieces such as a sumptuous shearling jacket, refined wool jackets with removable shearling collars, hotfix-adorned fair-isles knits and pearl-embroidered cable knits.
Polar Sky
Infused with state-of-the-art sustainability, the collection inherently integrates a number of innovative recycled fabrications. Ski suits and shell suits are constructed in recycled polyamide and polyester, which reduce environmental impact by limiting the use of virgin materials. Technical jackets are lined in certified organic cotton, the production of which maintains biodiversity, preserves natural resources and protects the working conditions of farmers.
v-40 Blue Dusk On Block Bracelet
The collection is characterised by a Damoflage Snow motif interpreted across techniques and fabrications. An arctic adaptation of the existing Damoflage pattern emblematic to the practice of Pharrell Williams – which splices the Maison’s classic Damier chequers with camouflage – the Damoflage Snow integrates a wintery palette which blends with the mountain-scape of skiing. Employed as a print, it graces a technical ski shell suit and a cosy après-ski fleece tracksuit. It also adorns technical ski mittens, a reversible wool beanie and scarf, and a knitted cushion and blanket. A gilet with a vintage ski scene motif and padded mountain details is infused with a chequerboard pattern while an intarsia fur hoodie appears in a macro fair-isle.
Passage De Drake Glacier Blue
Intricate outerwear bridges the authentic properties of skiwear with an off-slope attitude. A technical ski jacket in shades of grey is constructed with a mix of ripstop panels and plain weaves with yarn - embroidered logos and orange leather flower appliqué on the back. A padded black jacket is crafted with ripstop detailing and embossed Monogram, while leather piping adds intrigue to a black padded shearling jacket. A padded nylon Monogram jacquard blouson offers a lightness echoed in a leather varsity jacket with nylon sleeves and a grey wool aviator jacket with a fur collar.
v-40 Urban Shadow On Block Bracelet
Voluminous padded ski trousers incorporate the ripstop detailing of the collection in a side panel. Realized in jacquard, the LV Blason logo motif emblazons a black jacquard trouser all-over. Pearls, a signifier in the expression of Pharrell Williams, adorn a black tracksuit and a white cable knit. Ski-centric knitwear abounds in an intarsia knit with mixed motifs and logos, in a fairisle jumper with hot-fix beading, and an intarsia Monogram flower knit. A grey flannel jacquard over-shirt is imbued with a snowy fairisle logo, while ski graphics embellish t-shirts. Crafted in mixed materials, a technical ski underlayer with matching leggings features logo body seams and panels of pigment-printed Monogram nylon.
La Carte Des Nuages Stormy Grey S
Durable and waterproof, the LV Blizzard boot is constructed with an inside sock function and snow-proof ankle drawstring and ruching, and realized in black or white rubber with Damoflage neoprene. The LV Checker Combat boot is crafted in black or wheat Damier-embossed nubuck and lined in white shearling, The LV Trainer and the LV Trainer Snow are re-constructed into technical waterproof performance sneakers. For the après-ski wardrobe, the LV Footprint low boot emerges in glacier blue shearling or natural fox fur with the distinctive rubber sole from which it takes its name. The LV Pacific loafer appears in brown or tan suede lined in shearling, a detail echoed in the LV Easy mule proposed in tan or black nubuck. The LV Driver shoe takes shape in marine blue or tobacco Monogram suede.
m-40 Amber Orange On Horizon Strap
The Damoflage Snow pattern features across a variety of sporty canvas bags including the Hamac and the Mountain Backpack. The Monogram Storm appears in orange on a durable and water-repellent Keepall Sport and Slop Bumbag. The ultimate après-ski accessory, the Speedy P9 manifests in Damier jacquard winter denim with padded square details and shearling trims. With lenses emblazoned with the Monogram, the water- and fog-resistant LV Snowfall ski mask in black or white is constructed with a UV-protection, three-layer mask insulation and features an adjustable Monogram strap to ensure a comfortable, customised fit.
Passage De Drake Salmon S
The ultimate accessory for the slopes, the collection premieres the new edition of the LV Snowboard. Adapting the sensibility of retro skiwear patterns – likewise reflected in the knitwear – linear graphics blend with elements of the Damier and Monogram emblems, rendered in orange, greys, black and white. The snowboard is hand-made by artisans in the French Alps using techniques and materials – poplar, beechwood, fiberglass and steel – which optimise high performance. It will be available in a limited edition of one hundred snowboards.
