Translating Valextra's codes into an innovative product, the brand presents a new unisex capsule collection with high technical performance.
July 2024
Made of ECONYL® regenerated nylon, the collection fuses technological innovation with the preservation of the craftsmanship traditions that have characterised the brand since 1937. Enriched with elegant monochrome metal inserts, this series represents Valextra’s constant dedication to the world of design that manifests itself in ergonomic and sophisticated structures that speak the ‘Valextra Vocabulary’. As durable as it is fascinating, the sustainable ECONYL® total black yarn in which the items are made is produced from waste, including fishing nets and other discarded nylon. Comprising a Backpack, Shopper and Bum Bag, the Valextra Assoluto capsule makes the essentials precious, embodying Valextra’s constant research into state-of-the-art production processes.
Interweaving comfort and functionality, each item is embellished with leather trim, black lacquered brass finishes and a discreet profile that conceals the waterproof zips, protecting the contents from water and dust. Elements that add up to the new V-shaped metal application and which, together, define the three Valextra Assoluto products, the result of the evolution of the brand’s craftsmanship tradition now in dialogue with new aesthetic movements and ecological developments.
