Through the amazing partnership, the incredible trio will launch a range of outlandish phygital sneakers. The result of their combined efforts will see the ‘MB.03 Guttermello’ collection arrive via OpenSea on June 29, with owners able to unlock a physical counterpart later in the year.
Those interested can purchase one of the technicolor tokens for a flat price of $175, payable in both ETH and by credit card. Once in possession, owners will have a limited timeframe during which to claim the physical sneaker, currently penciled in for July 18 – August 20.
