This carbon fiber and leather trunk is the ultimate accessory for those of you heading to the alps anytime soon, though the Pinel’s have made some pretty outlandish packages in the past, such as the air Jordan cabinet and folding home theatre, we think this collection will do well among those who appreciate the finer things and those suffering from OCD. Note, the skis are made by Lacroix, who know a thing or two about what they’re doing as well.
