The luggage set is available in four different colors (Maserati Blue, Moor’s Head, Black and Aubergine) and two different leather types. The collection includes a suitcase, a weekend bag, a beauty case, a garment holder and a dual function shoe case with a removable compartment divider.

The story of a century full of success and recognition! The prizes awarded to Salvatore Ferragamo for his revolutionary inventions; the victories of Maserati’s invincible driver Fangio, 1957 world champion. Both fully appreciating heir common identity of unique Italian luxury, the same commitment to developing and defending great ideas by way of patenting them and the same will to rise to new and difficult challenges. Maserati striving for excellence in its latest project by Pininfarina, in which the rich heritages of both brands come together. The values represented by Maserati, trustworthiness, speed and safety, blend with the craftsmanship and exclusivity of the world of leather under the name of Salvatore Ferragamo. Shoes are like cars…both treading the tarmac and travelling the road!
