Puma teamed up with digital artisan Wagmi-san to create a limited-edition pair of Grailed Puma Slipstream sneakers, and owners can authenticate their purchase in the metaverse. Thanks to the NFC chip that's embedded in the physical footwear design, those who own the limited-edition sneakers can link to a digital twin in the form of an NFT.
The phygital sneakers invite sneakerheads into the metaverse accessories store 10KTF, located in the virtual city of New Tokyo. Puma's collaboration with this shop is known for offering streetwear products and its owner Wagmi-san marks the brand's largest web3 collaboration to date.
