From Digital Assets to Luxury Sports Shoes

What sets these boots apart is the integration of digital assets through the power of blockchain technology. Winners will receive a virtual shoebox, tradeable and exchangeable for a physical pair of boots from November 13 onwards. However, keep in mind that the post-redemption phase comes to an end on November 27, making these NFTs obsolete. 

Cryptocurrency is the main medium for transactions. However, Moonpay leverages numerous payment options on Adidas COLLECT, including fiat currency alternatives for crypto novices. Regardless of the chosen payment method, the cost of these boots will be pegged at approximately $358.34 (0.2 ETH). 

Notably, the sizes of these coveted kicks start at US 7.5 to 11.5, and the number of winners for each auction will match the availability of the size of the boots. 

Delivered in a distinctive box, winners can eagerly await the shipment of their physical sports shoes in early December. Check out the official Adidas Web3 and Bugatti channels for frequent updates. 

Adidas is marking yet another memorable occasion in the landscapes of fashion and Web3, following the success of its NFT-centered initiatives with the fashion powerhouses Moncler, BAPE, and beyond.

Stepn and Aoki’s Web3 Footprint

Stepn, developed by Find Satoshi Lab, is a move-to-earn game that enables users to acquire NFT sneakers through their mobile devices and garner cryptocurrency, NFTs, and other rewards by taking a simple stroll or intense run. Notably, it proudly touts a substantial user base of more than 2 million monthly active users.

Find Satoshi Lab is continuing to make waves in the Web3 landscape beyond linking Stepn up with Aoki, gearing up to debut its next game, ‘Gas Hero’, by this year’s end — a social adventure whereby players can plunge into a dystopian world to confront a troubled AI overlord accountable for a disastrously nuclear strike.

Aoki, on the flip side, has been actively involved in numerous Web3 projects in recent years, collaborating with iconic entities like Gala Games, Decentraland, Nickelodeon, and even the celebrated comic book illustrator, Todd McFarlene (‘Spawn’). Recognizing the advantages of limitless creativity and financial gain in the Web3 realm, the pioneering DJ brought his own virtual world, A0K1VERSE, to life in 2022.

Aoki and Stepn’s collaboration presents a pivotal moment whereby entertainment, gaming, and the blockchain intersect. On top of rolling out captivating Genesis Sneaker NFTs, these Web3 powerhouses illustrate what can be made possible through the synergy of notable figures and innovative blockchain-based entertainment platforms.

In a world where AI is reshaping industries, the fashion landscape is no exception. Fashion enthusiast Colby Mugrabi is debuting the clothing line Mmerch next year, fusing AI and blockchain technologies to offer one-of-a-kind, tech-savvy hoodies. 

Mmerch will feature 960 limited-edition hoodies with six key components (body, pockets, hoods, bands and two sleeves), ten contrasting prints (camouflage, stripes, etc.), and two materials (cashmere or French terry).

All of these fashion items will be crafted through the use of generative algorithms, each distinctively connected to non-fungible collectibles and granting access to a physical version for everyday attire. 

Unwrapping Mmerch’s NFT-Infused Hoodies

Similar to PFP collectibles, like CryptoPunks and the Bored Ape Yacht Club, each NFT has varying rarities, ensuring that all Mmerch fashion line items are unique. Some colors and prints will appear less than others, bringing in a sense of exclusivity and desirability, boosting the hoodie’s worth as a consequence. 

Each hoodie comes equipped with a QR code, provided by fashion-tech firm Eon, that acts as the gateway to an NFC chip. By embedding the chip’s soul-bound tokens into the garment, buyers have their very own digital identities Additionally, they can access the clothing item’s manufacturing information, including traceability and sustainability.

The core ambition of Mugrabi’s clothing series is to give fashion items extra value that extends beyond the point of purchase, setting a high standard during a time when economies of scale confine conventional manufacturing workflows. The designer calls this concept “neo-couture”, representing distinctive products that combine the scalability and speed of fast fashion.

Acquiring the Tech-Savvy Attire 

For those interested in acquiring one of these unique limited edition hoodies, an NFT drop for acquirement will take place next year, targeting fashion enthusiasts and NFT art collectors alike. Although, specific launch details currently remain under wraps.

Notably, when the NFTs are acquired, their designs will unveil before holders are granted a limited timeframe in which they can claim the tangible version of their hoodie.  

Mmerch’s innovative approach to fashion through leveraging AI and Web3 makes the future of fashion look increasingly personalized, sustainable, and digitally connected.

Nike and RTFKT’s Joint Web3 Venture

Nike first acquired RTFKT in December 2021, following the pioneering NFT fashion studio’s successful Clone X drop, which commanded a floor price on OpenSea of a whopping $19k (5.75 ETH) at the time. Since then, they have launched AR-infused hoodies, bridging fashion attire with the Metaverse through NFC technology, and co-created a unique urban footwear label featuring fascinating self-lacing technology and onboard lighting — merging cutting-edge fashion designs with technology yet again. 

Their tech-enhanced fashion inventions continue. In March 2023, the duo released Air Force 1 NFT sneakers designed by the famed Web3 artist Takashi Murakami. Holders of these digital assets gain access to physical versions of the sneakers, illustrating the innovative use of NFTs to incentivize customer loyalty. The current price for one of these NFTs currently stands at $294.25 (0.18 ETH) on OpenSea. 

As the fashion powerhouses continue to blend the physical and digital realms, consumers are not only offered products but interconnected into an immersive world that bridges technology, fashion, and collectibles. The forthcoming Nike x RTFKT NFT sneakers are one to watch out for.

Diesel, in collaboration with the famed watchmaker Fossil Group, has unveiled its groundbreaking timepiece collection, ‘Vert’. Each watch accompanies playable NFT avatars in the fashion brand’s immersive cyber world, ticking off yet another milestone for Diesel’s Web3 project, ‘Metamorph’. 

The Vert watches, resembling “bone structure,” showcase five distinct iterations, with two being limited-edition exclusives. Buyers of these unique timepieces will receive a one-of-a-kind code that acts as the gateway to opening its NFT counterpart.

Upon opening, the digital assets transform through three stages to evolve into mint-ready custom Diesel NFT avatars dubbed ‘A:VERT:AR.’ These virtual alter-egos live in the Vert virtual world, where limitless adventures await until November 17.

Diesel’s Timeless Metaverse

Sculpting Diesel’s Metaverse experience is the Web3 creative agency, Artificial Rome. The experience exudes the aura of a captivating video game, uniquely enlivened by the watch’s design elements. 

Players exploring the digital universe can partake in a series of thrilling challenges through the use of their Diesel NFT avatars or a ‘base avatar,’ timelessly immersing themselves in a world where time stands still. After conquering all exciting obstacles, attendees can attend an exclusive digital concert featuring the budding musician Lil’ Dre. 

Diesel tuning into the music landscape is a continuation of its past Metamorph NFT collection, which launched just last month. In partnership with the music NFT marketplace Public Pressure, the fashion giant released just 300 of these music collectibles, featuring soundtracks from the iconic musical composer Sejan Jansen and granting exclusive access to Public Pressure’s musical soirées, Milan Fashion Week, and, now, these recently launched Vert timepieces. 

An Enticing Virtual World for Everyone 

What gives Diesel’s Web3 stance an edge is its pledge to inclusivity. The Vert Metaverse experience is for more than watch and NFT owners, with everyone being able to step into the mesmerizing world through a base avatar. Although other big brands, like Adidas, have similar approaches, such virtual spaces are available to token holders only. 

An overarching aim of Diesel is to cultivate a broader experience in the Web3 world by making its on-chain expertise available to all. Its strategic push aligns with its holding company, the OTB Group, which debuted its open Metaverse, BVX, in 2021. 

Diesel’s dream of shaping a welcoming Web3 goes beyond being a pledge but an actuality — opening its arms to all who want to explore and thrive in its fashion-fused, blockchain-based ecosystem.

Adidas Originals and Moncler are embarking on an innovative fashion line that goes above and beyond co-creation.

During Milan Fashion Week on Sunday, AVAVAV unveiled an unusual NFT-linked boot, the Hoofster, created by OnlyEver and inspired by fashion enthusiasts’ feedback through a public vote.

Featuring faux-fur detail, a unique cloven-toe design, and a raven black leather finish, the shoe has similarities to a horse’s hoof. Despite already sounding offbeat, its innovative element — an embedded NFC chip — opens an Ethereum NFT counterpart that holds ownership certifications and co-creation details. Other advantages that will come to light as the project progresses.

These distinctive NFT-linked fashion boots are now available on OnlyEver’s platform for $795. On top of its innovative and stylish stance, another trigger for the demanding price tag comes down to OnlyEver’s 35-year shoemaking legacy, working for the likes of esteemed brands: Calvin Klein, Beyonce’s Ivy Park, Birkenstock, and Versace, among others.

Snazzy Fashion Items with Blockchain DNA

Blockchain-integrated NFC chips are becoming all the more common, with big brands and fashion icons heeling to the trend. Modern-day fashion entrepreneur Nicole Steel recently embedded such chips into her luxury cuffs, ‘SmrtKuff‘, designed exclusively for Apple Watches. With a quick tap from buyers’ mobile devices, the cuff wearers can uncover their virtual IDS, safeguarded by Polygon NFTs, to ensure sustainability and traceability. 

Esteemed fashion brand MNTGE also embraces this tech-savvy movement, embedding NFC chips into its unique clothing line, ‘Patchwork‘. The NFT element enables buyers of its fashion garments to carry digital perks everywhere they go, unlocking benefits and features while on the move. 

Dior is another fashion powerhouse taking strides in this arena. Its Dior B33 sneakers are equipped with NFC chips in the soles of its shoes, providing access to its secure, private virtual platform, which notably offers tailored services. 

As NFC chips find themselves embedded in shoes, cuffs, patches, and beyond, it’s apparent that the future of fashion is not just about how we look but how we engage and connect with our attire within this unrestricted digital world.

BAYC’s Reputation in the Fashion Scene

BAYC, with a trading volume generating nearly $3 billion, is no stranger to the fashion world. In September 2021, Adidas purchased BAYC #8774 for $156,000. The sportswear behemoth then dressed the asset up in it’s brand’s attire in December 2021, calling it ‘Indigo Herz’ for marketing impact in the Metaverse and physical retail world.

In April 2023, Adidas rolled out the NFT collection ‘Indigo Herz Pack’ in light of the NFT character, granting collectors of the coveted assets Superstar shoes and hoodies featuring the celebrated Ape through its ‘Into the Metaverse’ project. The most recent BAYC x Adidas collection, however, is ‘Three Stripes Studio’ — a clothing line with numerous other NFT brands involved, including Punk Comics, G-Money and DeadFellaz. Such clothing items are available as virtual and tangible prizes in the Adidas Metaverse. 

BAYC’s fashion stance doesn’t end there. The luxury fashion house, Gucci, collaborated with BAYC in March 2023 to explore new possibilities in the Web3 sphere. Just one week after the partnership being announced, Gucci unveiled 3,333 ‘Otherside: Relics by Gucci’ NFTs, enabling BAYC Otherside Metaverse members to redeem physical Gucci-crafted KodaPendants attached to silver necklaces for $1,917 (450 $APE) apiece. 

Celebrated rappers Snoop Dogg and Eminem have also utilized their own Bored Ape collectibles to feature on official merchandise and spin-off endeavors via IP commercialization rights. Notably, other celebrities owning BAYC NFTs include Paris Hilton, Neymar and Justin Bieber. 

The brand leaves its mark through each pursuit. Now, with the BAPE x BAYC streetwear line under the spotlight, BAYC reaffirms its position as a leading force in the intersection of fashion, art, and blockchain technology.

Luxury Italian watchmaker, Panerai, has announced that it will secure all future timepieces with a digital NFT passport. As a result, it will record the finer details of each high-quality device, as well as maintain its digital identity, and provide proof of ownership.

Starting from October 3, the noble and historic chronograph specialist will begin issuing NFTs alongside each purchase. Essentially, using the technology in a practical and useful way to maintain the security and ownership of its product. Once launched, buyers will then be able to claim the NFT at the point of purchase, or scan a QR code located on the items warranty card.

This resulted in a move that put the company right at the center of a revolution in watchmaking. One that has seen the very top end of luxury timepieces seek to enhance their product and fight counterfeiting through the application of NFTs.

In the past, big-hitting chronographers such as DWISS, Bulgari, Tag Heur, Hublot, Timex and Casio have all turned to the humble NFT to elevate their products. As a result, the honorable pursuit of fashionable timepieces has positioned itself as a major player in advancing NFT technology!
