Introducing: Montblanc Extreme Collection
The expert craftsmanship and incredible attention to detail that goes into creating a luxury accessory can often mean that we are precious with them, not wanting to get them scratched or damaged. This is not the case with Montblanc though, as they’ve created arguably the toughest, most durable leather and accessory collection around.
Launched in Florence with the equally tough Hugh Jackman, the Extreme collection marks a change in direction for Montblanc. Each piece from the range marries traditional craftsmanship with the latest technology, creating pieces that look stylish but still offer ground-breaking protection against the elements. The state-of-the-art leather used throughout the collection is water, heat and scratch resistant, meaning that you no longer have to worry about damaging your valued possessions.
THE RUCKSACK, , The humble rucksack has garnered train-like momentum over the last couple of years, and it’s now become somewhat of a wardrobe staple. This one is finished in a masculine, carbon-look leather and lined with waterproof neoprene, giving it the same durable aesthetic that defines the entire collection.
TIMEWALKER EXTREME CHRONOGRAPH DLC, , The Extreme Chronograph takes everything good about the Timewalker family of watches, and adds an air of toughness, making it fit for those looking for a sophisticated yet rugged timepiece. The case is made of a DLC (diamond-like carbon) black steel, which has an attractive matte finish, yet glints in the sunlight thanks to its heat-blasted glass spherules. Another neat addition is the ‘Extreme leather’ wristband, which seamlessly blends Vulcarbone rubber for increased strength and protection.
SINGLE GUSSET BRIEFCASE, , At first glance, this minimalistic briefcase is yet another classic addition to the Montblanc family, yet with its woven carbon-look leather, waterproof sealing and black aluminium detailing, is far from staid.
WALLET 4CC WITH COIN CASE, , Aside from their fountain pens, Montblanc are perhaps best known for their wallets. This is a perfectly sized piece, you’ll barely notice it in your wallet, and the signature Extreme woven carbon leather make it as durable as it is stylish.
STARWALKER EXTREME FOUNTAIN PEN, , A Montblanc fountain pen is always a thing of beauty, and have been owned by many of the great and the good. This one is made out of an opulent black resin material, a ruthenium-plated clip and the signature floating Montblanc logo.
