Dubai, United Arab Emirates - The famous '24 Hours of Le Mans’ road race is the epitome of rugged style, combining high-adrenaline action with stylish design and power-packed performance. Now, luxury smartphone accessorizer Givori has come roaring out of the blocks with a customized iPhone 6 model that draws inspiration from the classic event. Held annually in France, the Le Mans event is the world's oldest sports car endurance race and one of the most famous and influential in motorsports history, its name forever linked with style icon Steve McQueen after his starring role in the film of the same name. Following the enormous success of customizations of previous iPhones, Givori’s designers were inspired by the race’s distinguished history to create the Givori Le Mans Collection, with each customization hand-crafted using the finest Italian leather, and every handset designed to be a master piece in its own right. “The Le Mans is the world’s most prestigious sports car race, and is commonly called the Grand Prix of Endurance and Efficiency. It’s that ruggedness and reliability combined with classic style and elegance that we wanted to characterize with Givori’s Le Mans Collection,” said Givori in a statement. “Le Mans cars have always combined elegant craftsmanship and cutting-edge technology and so does the Givori Le Mans. Our customers will capture that feeling of sophistication and glamour each time they use their phone, giving them a timeless and stylish experience.” The USD 1,770 (AED 6,500) Givori Le Mans features a full-grain European leather back with three black-stitched stripes, designed to evoke the famous classic racing car stripes associated with the Le Mans race. The stylish device comes in three editions: Jaune (yellow), Rouge (red) and Noir (black), with rich dyes soaked into the fabric, heated and pressed to impart the color richness, depth and brilliant shine - showing Givori’s attention to detail and commitment to style. The rest of the casing is coated with a black matte finish, accentuating the sporty look, and the expertly designed Givori Le Mans is also treated with a nanotechnology film to combat oxidation, fingerprint smudges, and colour fading. Samsung fans will also soon be able to capture the glamour of the Givori Le Mans, with a version for the Samsung Galaxy S6 available for pre-order starting from today. The Givori Le Mans Collection is available at Harvey Nichols - Dubai, and select Axiom Telecom showrooms across the UAE and Saudi Arabia. All Givori products come with extensive post-sales support, including one year’s warranty on all software, cosmetic and jewellery elements. All repairs include a free pick-up and delivery service.
