BE@RBRICK Gets the ACRONYM Treatment
Two master collaborators meet.
BE@RBRICK has teamed up with Errolson Hugh's ACRONYM for its latest collaboration, and it is releasing sooner than you'd think.
Over the past few months, we've seen ACRONYM collaborate with sacai and Nike, and BE@RBRICK recently teamed up with Sean Wotherspoon and atmos to dress its signature silhouette in corduroy.
For the collaboration, ACRONYM keeps it simple and dresses the toy in black and white, contrasted by a red eye. It arrives in the classic sizes, 100%, 400%, 1000% and will be available on the ACRONYM website.
If you're unsure whether a BE@RBRICK is a good purchase, it is. It has been proven that the designer toys have frequently increased in value over time – especially collaborations like BAPE and other fashion labels – with approximately 10% each year.
"If you skim through Bearbrick's (also spelled BE@RBRICK) storied history of collaborations, you'll find a wide array of bears reselling anywhere from 7% to 1800% above price — with a majority of the rarer drops falling on the higher end of this spectrum," Highsnobiety reported earlier this year, and since, there have only been a handful of BE@RBRICK drops, with most of them selling out in just a few hours.
If you're looking to add the ACRONYM x BE@RBRICK piece to your shelf, head over to the ACRONYM website to shop. And, if you're looking for another style, we've obviously got you covered in the Highsnobiety shop.
