It is not the first time that Samsung has introduced a special edition of the Flip 3. In August this year, a Z Flip 3 Thom Browne Editie released. This folding phone had a business look. The new Maison Kitsuné edition can be recognized by the distinctive Fox logo and playful style.
Samsung Watch 4 Maison Kitsuné Limited Edition
The collaboration brings the playfulness of Paris-meets-Tokyo lifestyle brand Maison Kitsuné to the Samsung Galaxy. Maison Kitsuné’s signature aesthetic is incorporated into the design of the Galaxy special edition wearables, from the watch bands and dials to the earbuds and their case. A sophisticated new shade called Moonrock Beige was also created especially for the collaboration.
Gildas Loaëc, co-founder of Maison Kitsuné says: We’re thrilled to bring our distinct style and iconic Fox logo to Samsung Galaxy’s wearable designs. We loved the idea of the Maison Kitsuné Fox crossing the galaxy and had a lot of fun coming up with the new Moonrock Beige color and other subtle motifs and design elements that illustrate the Fox’s journey through time and space.
The Galaxy Watch 4 Maison Kitsuné Edition features a Moonrock Beige strap, punctuated by a charming fox-shaped hole and subtle engravings. The retail packaging also includes an additional custom Stardust Gray strap with the Maison Kitsuné lettering – allowing users to easily customize the look of their watch to match their clothing or mood. The smart watch comes with the same extensive features that can also be found in the regular Watch4.
Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Maison Kitsuné Editie
The Samsung Buds 2 Maison Kitsuné edition is also available in Moonrock Beige. The earbuds come in a sleek Stardust Gray leather case, adorned with a Maison Kitsuné Fox Head logo. The right earbud features the Fox’s head, while the left earbud shows off its tail – symbolizing an uninterrupted journey through the ‘Galaxy’.
Users can enjoy rich sound quality, thanks to dynamic two-way speakers and improved active noise cancellation. In addition, the Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 offer a comfortable fit.
To further shape the design collaboration, a special playlist has also been put together – by the brand’s music label, Kitsuné Musique. Users can also install an exclusive Maison Kitsuné phone theme by tagging an NFC card that comes standard in the sales package.
Stephanie Choi, Senior Vice President of Samsung Mobile says: The Galaxy Watch4 and Galaxy Buds2 Maison Kitsuné Edition are an exciting fusion of Samsung Galaxy’s latest wearable technology and Maison Kitsuné’s versatile Art de Vivre. We combine technology with fashion and music to let consumers enjoy a better life and well-being in a playful way.
