NIGO Gives the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon a Moncler Touch
As part of an installation for “The City of Genius” show, dubbed the “Mercedes-Benz Project G-Class Past II Future.”
Mercedes-Benz has unveiled a new chapter in its collaboration with Moncler, debuting the limited-edition G-Class Past II Future at the “City of Genius” show in Shanghai. This exclusive model, designed by fashion icon NIGO, is an evolution of a 1990s G-Class brought into contemporary times, merging classic design with modern luxury.
NIGO’s creative vision for the G-Class is showcased through “Project G-Class Past II Future,” a one-off art piece that has inspired a new limited series. The revamped G-Class features a sleek, two-tone olive green and grey exterior with black and gold accents, along with signature design elements like a foldable windscreen and a rear-mounted spare wheel. Inside, the cabin pays homage to the past with its checked seat upholstery, while gold and orange accents tie the vehicle to the collaborative fashion collection.
Only 20 units of the G-Class Past II Future will be produced, making it a rare addition to Mercedes-Benz’s 45-year G-Class legacy. This limited-edition vehicle aims to blend nostalgia and innovation, exemplifying how NIGO’s reinterpretation of 90s urban culture has shaped its contemporary appeal.
In addition to the G-Class, the collaboration also includes a capsule fashion collection set for release in April 2025. The collection reflects the same vintage-meets-modern ethos, featuring gender-neutral streetwear with bold prints and timeless silhouettes.
