About BOSS writing instruments
HUGO BOSS was founded in Metzingen, Germany, in 1924 and has grown into one of the world's best-known names in premium fashion. Its writing instruments, launched in 2015, carry the same design language as its tailoring: clean lines, confident proportions, carefully chosen materials and a quiet sense of luxury. Every BOSS pen is designed to be an accessory as much as a tool, something that looks as considered on a desk or in a jacket pocket as a good watch or a well-cut suit.
The Rive Varsity design
The Rive family is defined by a slim, strong structure and symmetrical details, a pen that looks crisp and balanced from every angle. Rive Varsity gives that design a collegiate twist, with rich, classic colours inspired by university blazers and sports kit, paired with black trim for a modern, understated finish. It is smart enough for the office and relaxed enough for every day.
The Navy finish
Navy is the classic varsity colour, and the Rive Varsity Navy wears it with style. The deep blue barrel is paired with black trim for a modern, low-key finish, and the symmetrical Rive design keeps the look crisp and balanced.
It is a confident, everyday colour that suits students and professionals alike.
Twist and write
The Hugo Boss Rive Varsity Navy ballpoint has no click button. A smooth twist of the Navy Rive Varsity barrel extends the refill, and a twist back retracts it, keeping the tip protected in a pocket or bag. The spring-loaded clip of the Navy Rive Varsity holds securely on a shirt pocket, a jacket or the cover of a notebook.
Size and feel
The Hugo Boss Rive Varsity Navy ballpoint measures about 135mm long and 12.5mm across and weighs around 34g, a balanced weight that feels substantial without tiring the hand, and its proportions suit most hand sizes.
Refills
When the ink runs low, the Hugo Boss Rive Varsity Navy ballpoint takes a standard Hugo Boss ballpoint refill. We stock them in black and blue, so you can choose the colour you prefer for your Navy Rive Varsity:
Caring for your BOSS pen
A BOSS ballpoint needs very little care. Retract the tip when you have finished writing, keep the pen in its box or a soft pouch when it is not in use, and wipe the body with a soft, dry cloth to remove fingerprints. Avoid carrying it loose with keys or coins, which can scratch lacquer and plating. When the line begins to fade, simply replace the refill and the pen is ready for years more writing.
Who it is for
The Hugo Boss Rive Varsity Navy ballpoint is ideal for professionals who sign and annotate documents every day, for students who want a stylish pen for exams and lectures, and for anyone who appreciates designer accessories. The Navy Rive Varsity is also a reliable, impressive gift for any occasion.
A favourite corporate gift
BOSS ballpoints are among the most popular corporate gifts we supply. They are instantly recognisable, practical for every recipient and presented in a branded gift box, so they work beautifully for client appreciation, employee milestones, conference speakers and festive gifting. If you are ordering several pens for your organisation, our team can help you choose finishes that suit your brand and your budget.
Why a twist ballpoint?
A twist mechanism is one of the hallmarks of a premium ballpoint. Unlike a click pen, there is no spring button to wear out or rattle, and the barrel stays clean and uninterrupted, which lets the design take centre stage. The action is quiet, so it is perfect for meetings and lectures, and it is far less likely to open accidentally in a pocket or bag. Many writers also find that a twist pen feels more solid and deliberate in the hand, which is exactly the impression a fine pen should make.
Black or blue ink?
Choosing an ink colour is a personal decision, but there are a few useful conventions. Blue ink makes original signatures easy to tell apart from photocopies, which is why many banks, lawyers and government offices in India prefer it for documents. Black ink looks crisp and formal and photocopies and scans clearly, so it is popular for business correspondence and notes. Many of our customers keep a spare refill of each colour, so they always have the right ink for the occasion.
Styling the Navy
Rive Varsity Navy looks great with blazers, chinos, denim and white shirts. It is a perfect graduation gift and a smart choice for a young professional's first premium pen.
A gift worth giving
This pen makes a thoughtful gift for students, professionals and anyone who still enjoys writing by hand. Unlike most gifts, a good pen is used every day and often kept for decades. It is a popular choice for birthdays, Diwali, anniversaries, new jobs and corporate occasions, and it comes in the original brand packaging.
Pair it with good paper
Paper matters as much as the pen. A smooth, well-sized paper lets your pen glide, keeps your writing crisp and shows off the colour of your ink. Explore our range of notebooks, journals and pads to complete your writing set.
