Louis Vuitton, flagship of the LVMH group, unveils the Paris 2024 Medal Trunks and Torch Trunks, true embodiments of luxury and functionality. Witness to the excellence of the Asnières workshops, these majestic pieces will protect and magnify, with unrivalled elegance, the Olympic and Paralympic symbols of this year's must-see sporting event!

As the sporting event of the year approaches, Louis Vuitton, the LVMH Group's emeritus ambassador of refinement and exclusivity, rises to the rank of protector of the Olympic and Paralympic symbols of Paris 2024. A true maestro of leather goods, the House unveils the Medal Trunks and Torch Trunks, the result of a perfect fusion of tradition and modernity, prestige and functionality.

At the heart of this symbiosis of luxury and precision, the Malles Médailles are majestic pieces, draped in Louis Vuitton's iconic Monogram canvas. Inspired by the famous Malle Coiffeuse, they open like a triptych dressed in black leather and tiered with drawers housing engraved Chaumet decorations, like the jewels of victory. All embossed with the Paris 2024 signature.

The Torch Trunks also serve as protective cases for the Olympic and Paralympic Torches, designed by French designer Mathieu Lehanneur. A blend of tradition and innovation, they are enhanced by the signature Damier canvas, a vibrant tribute to the company's heritage. Beneath their elegant allure, they provide optimum protection for the sacred flames that will cross France as part of the Olympic Torch Relay.
