TheNOBO is linking up with with The Land and Complex SHOP for a private shopping experience ahead of NBA All-Star Weekend festivities.
The pre-owned luxury marketplace is hosting the private shopping experience on Feb. 17 at Tower City Center in Cleveland, with pre-registration available that includes a free ticket.
Attendees can expect to have the opportunity to buy, sell, and/or trade luxury items of their own using TheNOBO marketplace. Additionally, the L.A.-based brand Kassem has partnered with the marketplace for event-exclusive merch. Meanwhile, custom Nike Air Force 1s from Cleveland artist Nate Austin will be available to buy, with proceeds going toward a local civil rights organization.
Other highlights on the agenda include customized basketballs from artist Stina Aleah, product giveaways, and confirmed attendance from the Yusufs.
The event is free to attend and begins at 5:00 p.m. ET on Thursday. For more info, see the official flyer below.
TheNOBO was founded by Noelle Bonner, who previously revealed to the San Francisco Business Times last February that she was first attracted to the idea of a “bartering-centered concept” in connection with a key element of a Halloween costume in 2015. “I just thought, if only there was someone I could trade with, we’d both win,” Bonner said at the time.
This week, TheNOBO announced details of a Yusufs-centered bag giveaway. See more below.
