Puma, in collaboration with Legitimate and Roc Nation, unveils the 'Evolution of the Mixtape,' a revolutionary sneaker collection embedding Web3 technology with Hip-Hop culture. This exclusive collection, available at Footlocker, offers wearers unique NFTs unlockable via an NFC chip, providing access to unreleased Roc Nation music and exclusive digital content, all while bringing the sneaker game into a new era.
Known as the 'Evolution of the Mixtape,' this collection features three music-inspired designs: 'Cassette Tape,' 'Playlist,' and 'Disk.' But these are no ordinary shoes. Each pair has an embedded NFC chip in the tongue, promising delightful digital surprises for the wearer.
Once users scan the NFC chip with their smartphone, they'll unlock an exclusive NFT – a digital token that gives them access to unreleased songs by Roc Nation artists and behind-the-scenes footage and images. These sneakers become more than just shoes; they become a portal to an immersive experience of music, digital assets, and exclusive content.
Available exclusively through the renowned shoe retailer Footlocker, the 'Evolution of the Mixtape' collection is priced at a reasonable $130 – a refreshing departure from the often high costs of similar product launches. This latest endeavor signifies a captivating fusion of fashion, advanced technology, and music, reaffirming Puma's status as an innovative force in sports fashion.
In line with other leading sports apparel brands like Nike, Puma is leveraging the power of Web3 technology to establish a deeper connection with its customer base. Over the past year, Puma has embarked on several digital initiatives, including NFT collaborations with Manchester City Football Club and the Gutter Cat Gang and forays into the Metaverse.
This unprecedented fusion of fashion, technology, and music lets fans immerse in the 'Evolution of the Mixtape' collection and elevate their sneaker game to new heights. However, these tech-infused sneakers are only available to customers within the USA and its territories.
