Mercedes-Benz and Moncler officially debuted their extraordinary cross-cultural creation, inspired by the outstanding design and classic tradition of both brands, opening up an endless world of imagination.
Mercedes-Benz x Moncler
Introducing ‘Project Mondo G’ – a collaboration between Mercedes-Benz and Moncler, expertly designed by Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Mercedes-Benz Group AG. This exclusive collection seamlessly blends the iconic features of the Mercedes-Benz off-roader G-Class with the signature style of Moncler’s puffer jackets, resulting in a true work of art
PROJECT MONDO G invites you to experience the transformation of a formerly pure utility-focused object into a revolutionary design. The angular design of the G Series and the soft, flowing lines of the quilted fabric create a spectacular contrast. The Mercedes-Benz G- Class is unmistakable and inimitable with functionality at its core. The products have developed into lifestyle items of luxurious value over the past decades. Its impressive dimensions are 4.6 m in length, 2.8 m in height, 3.4 m in width (with wheels) and 2.5 tons in weight.
In addition, a closer look reveals further characteristic. It features that have a concrete connection to the original products and additionally create exciting contrasts. The piece also comes with a huge zipper, another deliberately eye-catching element. It is a practical reference to the versatility and variability of both vehicle and jacket.

“Two strong luxury brands offer an extraordinary new experience by combining the automotive and fashion worlds united in one piece. Because of the over-dimensional and exaggerated language of forms, it’s polarizing art has set new impulses and trends,” said Gorden Wagener in a statement.
