CASETiFY has partnered with the One Piece anime series for an exclusive line of tech accessories.
As reported by PR Newswire, CASETiFY has announced a new line of products based on the acclaimed pirate franchise. "Incorporating CASETiFY's globally-loved custom elements, fans are invited to show their creativity and adventurous spirit with a new collection of lifestyle products featuring Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates," CASETIFY said in a statement. "Eager shoppers can climb aboard the virtual waitlist by visiting casetify.com/onepiece, signing up for priority access to the collection on launch day, May 27."
The collection promises to blend "popular Japanese manga characters and CASETiFY's coveted innovations." The line will consist primarily of iPhone accessories, including protective/impact-resistant, MagSafe-compatible and biodegradable leather smartphone cases, with prices starting at $45. The collection also features "inspired takes on recognizable motifs" from the series, including Luffy's Jolly Roger drawing, a Straw Hat Crew compass and character icons of Luffy, Zoro, Ace, Nami, Sanji, Sabo and Chopper. The centerpiece of the collection is a limited edition reflective "High Seas" case design, coinciding with CASETiFY's 10 Year Anniversary.
A 3D printed Devil Fruit AirPod case will also be available in addition to "classic sticker-style" pod cases, grip stands, saffiano leather Apple Watch bands and stainless steel water bottles. For the most zealous fans, an extremely limited Laboon Basketball is also available to purchase. These products range from $35-$79.
CASETiFY has also announced a special promotion in which customers can guess the mystery character set to be added to the collection (Franky, Brook, Law or Robin). Correct guesses will be entered into a raffle, with six customers receiving a free personalized case of their choosing, with more updates to come via social media.
"Every day we're inspired by our community for taking risks and being unapologetically themselves, so teaming up with One Piece to showcase their beloved, adventurous characters in a new way feels like a natural fit for our collections," said Wes Ng, CEO and Co-founder of CASETiFY. "We believe our fans will enjoy this special collaboration, experiencing their favorite series through CASETiFY's creative lens."
