LONDON, U.K. September 28, 2022 – FARFETCH Limited (NYSE: FTCH), the global destination for modern luxury, today announces the fourth release from FARFETCH BEAT, the new concept retail series that introduces exclusive product experiences to an international audience.
For BEAT 004, FARFETCH has partnered with Stadium Goods, the world's premier sneaker and streetwear marketplace, and Döttling, heritage luxury German safe manufacturer, to unveil an exclusive line of luxury made-to-order sneaker safes.
Taking inspiration from Stadium Goods’ Trophy Case, a glass case that encapsulates the rarest, most exclusive sneakers and streetwear in the world, the Stadium Goods x Döttling safe allows the most serious and dedicated collector the opportunity to proudly display and protect their most coveted streetwear investments.
Ronojoy Dam, Global Director, Brand & Culture, FARFETCH said:
“Stadium Goods have the greatest respect for sneaker culture, and the modern connoisseurship involved. Highly prized collections deserve to be stored and transported with the highest levels of security, and style. Döttling’s safes are handmade masterpieces and their collaboration with Stadium Goods is befitting of the contemporary design masterpieces they are made to protect and display. We are honoured to bring this bespoke union of the best of street culture and European craftsmanship exclusively to FARFETCH BEAT.”
Laura Sartor, CEO, Stadium Goods said:
"At Stadium Goods, we’ve always known that rare and unique sneakers were items worthy of being handled like art or luxury watches, so designing a safe for sneakers made perfect sense to us. Dottling and FARFETCH are ideal partners for this very unique project, as we continue to define a new luxury aesthetic that fuses our world of sneakers and streetwear with the world of classic luxury brands.”
Each safe is made to order offering customers a truly unique and personal experience. Crafted with the finest of leathers, interiors, hardware and shelving, customers will have the ability to choose between an assortment of 4 shells, Calf Leather ($26K USD), Faux Ostrich ( $28K USD), Faux Alligator ($28K USD), and Cowhide ($29.5KUSD). The Stadium Goods x Döttling line of trainer safes will include a rechargeable fingerprint lock for modern safety, an optional sound alarm that activates when the safe is moved, interior LED lighting to enhance visibility, and venting to encourage airflow and reduce interior humidity.
Andreas K. Schlittenhardt, President Döttling Luxury Safes, said:
“Since its inception more than 100 years ago, Döttling has always strived for excellence and to make the highest quality of products. Based on this core value, it was clear that Stadium Goods was the only option to partner with for this unique and extraordinary collaboration.”
To further customise their safe, customers will also have the option to add personalised embroideries on the interior lid of their safe. With only 15 total units available for purchase available exclusively on FARFETCH, each of the collaboration safes has a certificate of authenticity and its own unique number, specially customised for the collaboration.
The collection will be available on 28 September 2022 from 9am CET/8am GMT, exclusively on FARFETCH with prices ranging from $26,000-$29,500 USD. Each safe will be assembled in Germany at the Döttling factory and will be ready to ship within 4-8 weeks.
