HEAT has launched a new mystery box collection that is confirmed to include pieces from JW Anderson, Acne Studios, Bottega Veneta, Rick Owens, and more. HEAT has already sold over 30,000 mystery boxes using a unique monthly drop business model that is heavily promoted on its social media channels. The brand is dedicated to providing luxury and designer items in a mystery box-style format, making these pieces accessible to a wider range of consumers. The brand recently acquired a major investment from Antler, solidifying their impact on the contemporary fashion industry.
“We have been doing a lot of behind the scenes work in the first half of this year. We are excited to see everything come to life over the next few months.. What’s around the corner is going to change the game,” said Joe Wilkinson, HEAT’s CEO.
