Now that the 2022 Winter Olympics are officially under way, three-time Olympic gold medalist, Shaun White has just unveiled his winter luggage set between his Whitespace imprint and Louis Vuitton.

The American snowboarder revealed that the collaboration was conceived with Virgil Abloh where the custom Olympic luggage set includes a snowboard case — a first for the house — a guitar case, a Keepall, and a Horizon hard side carry on. There is also the commemorative hand-signed snowboard from White pictured next to the set.

Developed in Louis Vuitton’s atelier in Marsaz, France, the set took six Louis Vuitton artisans over 250 hours to fabricate, with over 100 steps in assembly. Check out the set above and see it in action on Shaun White’s Instagram below.
