Maison Margiela Unveils a New Digital Product Collection with Mmerch

— April 26, 2024 — Fashion
Maison Margiela recently introduced the public mint of its MetaTABI NFT, an innovative digital transformation of its iconic split-toe boot tailored for the brand's discerning luxury clientele. Available for purchase on the esteemed digital fashion platform The Fabricant, this exclusive offering comprises 1,500 NFTs priced at $616 each and 15 premium NFTs priced at $8,400 each.

Investors in the higher-priced tier receive a unique and coveted reward—a limited-edition, handmade pair of Maison Margiela's renowned Tabi boots. Additionally, participants in the larger investment group receive an opulent custom leather wallet, adding to the exclusivity of the launch.

“These initiatives drive long-term loyalty within the digital community,” said Stefano Rosso, chairman of Maison Margiela. “They incentivize community engagement from the beginning and foster a sense of belonging to a project that will continue to add value and utility over time.”
