Salvatore Ferragamo partners with Shxpir for its foray into the web3 scene
Luxury fashion brand, Salvatore Ferragamo has partnered with Shxpir as it embraces web3 and Non-Fungible Token (NFTs). This move adds Salvatore Ferragamo to the list of fashion brands launching into the NFT space.
The fashion brand launched an NFT booth in New York City that will allow customers to create and mint their Ethereum NFTs with variety of traits. Visitors will get these new NFTs for free but the numbers are limited since only about 256 NFTs are available for mining.
Ferragamo is partnering with Shxpir to take this major leap into web3. Shxpir is a prominent artist that will guide the brand to create the traits and elements of the NFTs.

Daniella Vitale, CEO of Ferragamo in North America stated the reason for the collaboration with Shapiro. According to Vitale “the artist reflects the energy of New York City and Soho”. She also added that he can match grit with luxury in a way that others cannot.
