Maison030 is a newcomer label founded in 2017 by Sofiane Benbrahim and Jeromin Blank in Berlin. The result is a young brand that cleverly references the present. The first collection blends streetwear with prêt-à-porter influences. The creators strive to combine the best of both worlds and to offer high-quality, unisex products at a mainstream price level. The 60-piece collection includes denim, chinos, and coats. Retail prices start at 85 Euros for sweaters, 100 Euros for hoodies, and 45 Euros for t-shirts - with a mark-up of 2.6. “The processing of high-quality materials, in combination with perfect fits, manifests our quality standards,” Benbrahim explains. Even before the launch of the collection, Maison030 already was more than an insider tip with approximately 5,000 Instagram followers. Labels: Alpha Industries, Arkk, Daily Paper, Deus, Filling Pieces, Happy Socks, Hi-Tec, Hysteria, J.
