Godfather Of Street Wear Virgil Abloh's Off-White™ c/o Project MAYBACH Match Made In Heaven?

Updated: Apr 14, 2022


Off-White fans now have another project to cheer about as Mercedes-Maybach unveiled its final chapter of Project Maybach, its partnership with the late artist, architect, and fashion designer, Virgil Abloh. The project which includes the limited edition bespoke S-class electric show car with a capsule collection was finalized right before Abloh's passing in November of 2021.



Maybach lovers can appreciate the unique exterior two-toned colorway. The upper in a glossy obsidian black and the lower part of the vehicle is in a "sand hue" tone. The capsule also captures the colorway of the vehicle, emulating the same "sand hue" tone for most of its pieces. It is exclusively available in a limited run of 150 units. The concept image of the Mercedes-Maybach features an off-road aesthetic, with large tires and a sports utility rack on the roof.

The capsule collection, launching April 5, 2022, includes Off-White's oversized styling of vintage washed cotton tee-shirts, half-brushed cotton fleece crewnecks and hoodies, canvas caps, and canvas, neoprene, and suede, driving gloves. Check out more details here.

This project was Abloh's third collaboration with Mercedes-Benz, and second with Mercedes-Maybach.
