MICRO
COOPERATIONS
PEUGEOT
At the 2016 Paris Motor Show, which
showcases the latest automobiles,
it was our two-wheeler that was
the centre of attraction. The Peugeot
Micro e-Kick, a hybrid scooter that can
accelerate up to 25 km/h, was presented
together with Peugeot‘s new 3008 SUV and
attracted many visitors. The hybrid kick is
the result of a collaboration between the
Micro inventor Wim Ouboter and the French
car manufacturer Peugeot. With the integration
of a special stowage place for the
scooter in the boot of the 3008, Peugeot
and Micro are pursuing a joint strategy for
Peugeot 3008
urban mobility. The 3008 has a Dockstation
with a Bluetooth connection to the My
Peugeot app; the app provides information
about the Scooter, such as battery charge,
average speed, and total distance travelled
and can be seen on the car display and on
mobile phones.
The two lifestyle products form a clean and
very elegant union in their design. This seemed
to capture French President and well-known
scooter fan François Holland’s fancy when
he was the very first to get a look at the world
premier at the motor show 2016.
SUITSUPPLY
SUIT UP AND RACE OFF ! DUTCH MENSWEAR LABEL MEETS
SWISS KICKBOARD PIONEER
This pretty much sums up the cooperation
between kickboard-maker Micro
and the successful Dutch fashion
label Suitsupply. Their shared passion
for high quality, exclusive design and the
quest for the unconventional has brought the
two success stories together, resulting in a
piece of luggage on wheels of true class. With
their never-tiring pioneering spirit, both companies
have succeeded in standing out from
the crowd on a long-term basis and have positioned
themselves at the top of their markets.
Suitsupply offers tailor-made suits from
Italian fabrics and complements its range
with shirts, coats and other classic men’s
clothing. The brand doesn’t just rely on classy
elegance but also provokes with extraordinary
colours and a bold, nonchalant style.
Micro too, favours the unconventional. Several
years ago they invented a unique traveling
gadget : the Micro Luggage, which is a hand
luggage-sized cross between suitcase, trolley
and kickboard.
The Micro Luggage has been successful for
years and is especially popular for city trips.
The advantage is obvious : At huge airports like
New York or Paris there are such long distances
to be crossed, it’s highly useful if you can turn
your hand luggage into a kickboard within
a few seconds, and get to security before
everyone else. And because the elegant travel
gadget isn’t just practical but also a highlight in
terms of design, it quickly caught the eye of
Fokke De Jong, owner of Suitsupply. The
successful Micro product was charged up with
a refreshing touch à la Suitsupply.
The result is called Race Case. With its Italian
calf leather finish, the trolley’s deftly textured
face is sure to make an impression when rolling
up to the check-in counter. The leather grip
handles and the trolley’s ample interior
convince with refined details. But see for
yourself – you can purchase the Race Case
exclusively in the Suitsupply stores and online.
