MAISON de SABRÉ and Pokémon debut Pikachu luxury bags, wallets and charms

Maison de Sabré partnered with The Pokémon Company International to release a limited‑edition Pikachu capsule that launched worldwide on 26 February 2026 at 6 p.m. ET, timed to Pokémon Day and the franchise’s 30th anniversary. The flagship Pikachu Palais, listed as the Medium Palais in retail blocks at $779, reportedly sold out on Maison de Sabré’s site and is already appearing in department store merchandising.

The Pikachu Palais is crafted in pecan‑brown calf leather and finished with contrast Pikachu‑yellow stitching, rolled leather handles, and a bridge clip closure, bringing the maison’s Palais silhouette into character mode. The bag uses MAISON de SABRÉ’s leather marquetry with inlay, overlay, and high‑pressure embossing; the Pikachu motif is composed from 44 individually cut leather panels and takes two days to assemble. Design details include pecan leather footprints across the silhouette, a leather Pokéball motif at the gusset, and lightning‑bolt zipper pullers that echo Pikachu’s electric energy.

The capsule extends beyond the Palais to a trifold wallet priced at $189, limited‑edition bifold and trifold wallets, a coin purse, and SABRÉMOJI™ charms. The SABRÉMOJI line includes three Pikachu expressions and a leather Pokéball charm, with some charm variants described as leather AirTag compatible. Retail listings show the Medium Palais and the trifold wallet alongside merchandising copy that frames the pieces as playful yet wearable luxury.

Omar Sabré, co‑founder and creative director at MAISON de SABRÉ, framed the effort as nostalgia refined, saying, “Each collaboration we undertake is a quiet nod to nostalgia - to the parts of us that never really grew up. With this collection, we wanted to celebrate that sense of play, but present it in the most refined, considered way possible. We’ve elevated Pikachu into something personal, enduring and sophisticated enough to be carried every day.” Zane Sabré, co‑founder, positioned the release within the maison’s growth plan, saying, “This collaboration reflects where our customer is today. They’re highly engaged, culturally fluent and looking for products that sit at the intersection of design, function and storytelling. From a business perspective, the release aligns with our broader growth strategy - creating products that travel well across markets while remaining disciplined in how we produce and release them. Pokémon brings global recognition, but the execution still had to earn its place in our assortment.”

MAISON de SABRÉ described the partnership as the brand’s first collaboration with the entertainment franchise and launched the range globally, with Nordstrom listed among retail partners carrying the collection. For gift giving, the Pikachu Palais at $779 suits a collector who values artisanal technique and wants a daily‑wearable statement piece, the $189 trifold or a SABRÉMOJI charm works as a luxury stocking stuffer, and the AirTag‑compatible leather charms offer practical luxury for travelers. Expect the maison to continue limited, nostalgia‑driven drops as it scales internationally, making availability and edition sizes the critical details to watch next.
