After the Pacsun launched its first-ever NFT and it sold above the asking price, the brand saw the opportunity to make more impact with its all-new Pac Mall Rats. With the first Pacsun Wave NFT, 100% of proceeds were donated to the Fashion Scholarship Fund. Brie Olson, President at Pacsun, said "Being our first NFT, any bid over asking price is a success to us as it shows that there is interest around Pacsun in the NFT world." Now, Pacsun is introducing three Pac Mall Rats, each of which represents a unique retail location in Los Angeles.
To kick off the collection of NFTs, which will grow to include more than 300 Pac Mall Rats over time, Pacsun created non-fungible tokens to represent its retail locations in Santa Monica, Brea and DTLA. Each Pac Mall Rat is outfitted with a unique outfit, including apparel and accessories that highlight the brand's offerings.
