PUMA recently announced the special Black Station project, which is its first-ever metaverse website experience. It made its first debut during New York Fashion Week and it is made up of exclusive NFTs that come with limited edition physical sneakers that can be redeemed as a part of its FUTROGRADE show. The immersive website allows customers to experience the future and web3 activations over the course of the year.
Speaking about the new project, PUMA's Chief Brand Officer Adam Petrick states that “Twenty years ago, Black Station was PUMA’s home for our most innovative designs in fashion [...] Given the boundaries we are pushing from a product design and digital standpoint, we found it fitting to bring Black Station back as a new portal for digital exploration
across fashion, sport performance, our heritage classics, and innovation.”
