Ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026 final, Louis Vuitton has unveiled its bespoke Trophy Trunk — marking the fifth consecutive tournament the French luxury house has crafted this iconic piece for. The final takes place this Sunday at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, with Spain already through and their opponent yet to be decided. (Credit: Louis Vuitton)
Louis Vuitton is the official supplier and branded licensee of the FIFA World Cup 2026, continuing a legacy that stretches back to 2010. The house previously created trophy trunks for the 2010, 2014, 2018 and 2022 tournaments, making this year’s edition the fifth in an unbroken run. (Credit: Louis Vuitton)
The signature gold and brown Monogram canvas remains untouched — a design constant across every edition. Crafted by Louis Vuitton’s artisans at the historic Asnières-sur-Seine workshops near Paris, the trunk stays true to the house’s most recognisable material. (Credit: Louis Vuitton)
Two front panels carry a hand-painted golden ‘V’, standing in for both “victory” and “Vuitton,” rendered in colours that echo the FIFA World Cup Trophy itself. The exterior is finished with signature leather trim known as lozines, alongside gold-plated brass corner protectors, and a lock and clasps styled after designs the house has used since the 1860s.

Inside, the trunk is lined with light beige leather, with a partnership logo shared between Louis Vuitton and FIFA built into the lid — a detail most fans will never see up close, but one that speaks to the level of craftsmanship going into a piece built to hold football’s biggest prize.

The partnership isn’t stopping at the Trophy Trunk. Louis Vuitton is also releasing a limited-edition collection of three trunks inspired by it, each carrying the same golden ‘V’ and a hand-painted rendering of the FIFA World Cup Trophy. You may never get your hands on the real trophy, but this is about as close as luxury retail will let you get. (Credit: Louis Vuitton for 2022)

The trunk itself is built to protect a trophy that weighs 6.175 kilograms and is crafted from 18-carat gold and malachite — carried onto the pitch on final day by a football icon and a Louis Vuitton ambassador. In 2022, Deepika Padukone made history doing the honours at Lusail Iconic Stadium in Qatar.

This is far from Louis Vuitton’s only brush with sport. Owned by LVMH, the house holds a 10-year contract to craft bespoke trophy trunks for major Formula 1 Grands Prix, served as the Australian Open’s Official Trophy Trunk Partner in 2026, and has returned to the America’s Cup as Title Partner of its 37th edition — proof that its sporting playbook runs far deeper than football alone.
