Available in regulation or a mini size, the Market Smiley Swarovski Basketball is a highly collectible technicolor crystallized world globe, the second collaboration between trendy streetwear brand Market (once named Chinatown Market) and Swarovski, whose first collab sold out in three days.
Market Smiley Swarovski Basketball
If you’re not familiar with Market’s Smiley Basketballs, you are hopelessly out of touch. The trendy brand has been producing various basketballs with smiley faces in every size, color and material imaginable and they are a hot commodity.
Following a 2020 release, which sold out in three days, Swarovski and MARKET join forces once again in a new, highly collectible display basketball. The regulation size rubber ball is embellished with around 15,000 technicolor Swarovski Crystals. The Mini size has just about half that.
But you won’t find these on their site. This special release in two sizes is only available for purchase here.
The basketball is an instant icon, a showpiece, and a reminder of joyful wonder. Existing at the intersection of sport and streetwear, cult-brand MARKET is known for its innate zeitgeist pieces, now entering the Swarovski Creators Lab.
