Brazil International and Real Madrid star left-back Marcelo Vieira has won the UEFA Champions League four times. He also has an Olympic gold medal. Add that to the fact he's lifted the La Liga trophy five times, and the “Best Left-back in the World” title he claimed for four consecutive years seems justified. Either that, or he's extremely lucky.

If the latter is even of remote chance, then this might be of interest. Marcelo has partnered with Norwegian luggage brand Douchebags to create a range of travel-ready bags in his lucky color — purple.

Marcelo first saw the hue, PANTONE 19-3528 TCX to be exact, on the LA Lakers' jersey and it's been an important part of him and his life ever since. As well as ensuring that the color is a dominant part of his wardrobe and his home, Marcelo also never plays a soccer game without wearing a wristband in the shade.

The Douchebags x Marcelo luggage collection is now available to shop in a range of models and sizes, from the appropriately-named mammoth option — the "Big Bastard" to the cabin-appropriate "Hugger 20."
