Porsche Design pays homage to the colour spectrum of the late 1960's 911. Mainly in the colours of Tangerine, Polo Red, Irish Green and Ossi Blue.

Porsche Design has released a number of items ranging from apparel to sports equipment that are highly influenced by the range of retro colours that were available for the 911 during the 1960’s. They have t-shirts, durable and weatherproof messenger and shopping bags and an umbrella, among other kitchen items like coasters.

In 1971, Porsche’s 917 race cars raced to victory in the 24 hours of Le Mans, liveried in an iconic blue and red of sponsors Martini. Almost 4 decades later, Driver's Selection by Porsche Design has refreshed its Martini collection featuring distinctive light, dark blue and red stripes and added new items to celebrate the collaboration. The range includes apparel, accessories and sports equipment.

Under apparel, we have the super light yet windproof Martini Racing Sportsline Jackets in white for ladies, and dark blue and a limited edition red, for men. White, Martini Racing long-sleeved tops, polo shirts in deep blue, and a baseball cap completes the collection. On the accessories front we have Aviator Sunglasses with small and simple Martini logos and grey coloured lenses that offer a 100% UV protection.

Under sports equipment, Porsche Design has created, a high performance badminton kit with two carbon-composite racquets created for enhanced precision and impact and five high-speed shuttlecocks. Speedminton is a combination of badminton, squash and tennis, played without a net, using shorter but more tightly strung racquets and heavier shuttlecocks, usually an ideal summer game in parks or gardens.
