Although the NFT game isn’t as popular as it was a couple of years ago, there are still a lot of exciting things to know! For example, when Nike acquired RTFKT studios, it opened a whole new world of digital possibilities. In addition to that, we got Dot Swoosh, aka the Nike metaverse. And now, the Swoosh took it a step further with the upcoming RTFKT Nike Dunk Genesis VOID Edition. So, let’s get on and check out the story behind these futuristic babies, shall we?
RTFKT and Nike – A Digital Love Story
Okay, so we all know how NFTs took the digital world by storm in 2020. However, one company stood out in its approach to NFT sneakers and such. You see, the Cryptokicks collection took the digital world by storm. And obviously, Nike had a hand in that because the collection was a collaborative effort. Now, while it was a dope collab, the kicks remained digital and we didn’t see them in real life. But that is all about to change!
RTFKT Nike Dunk Genesis VOID Edition Is Finally Here!
At first sight, these babies look like something out of a game, which means they really hit their target! For starters, the RTFKT Nike Dunk Genesis VOID features a mainly black colorway with a hit of purple. Now, let’s get into the nitty-gritty details of the design, shall we?
The all-black upper features a synthetic mesh base with canvas overlays, but that’s the least interesting bit about it! You see, the lateral sides of the kicks feature the Swoosh and RTFKT logos in bright purple. Moreover, the tongue and heel areas will have customizable details that you can add or remove. That all depends on how chunky you’re feeling that day. And finally, the midsole area will include an Air Zoom unit for a comfy ride.
The Extra Perks of RTFKT Nike Dunk Genesis VOID
If you thought that getting the kicks is just about the cool looks, you’re wrong. You see, each pair will include an NFC tag you can scan to claim the digital counterpart of your kicks. In addition to access to the digital kicks, you’ll also have access to game-ready 3D files! That’s one way to tackle digital creativity and community creation, right? Now, how can you get ahold of these babies?
Release Info & More
So, the initial release happened way back in November 2023 via pre-order. However, Nike and RTFKT will give us another chance to score the kicks. You see, 1,000 pairs will drop on Nike SNKRS on June 21, 2024, for $222. That’s part of the total 11,394 pairs available (as confirmed back in January 2024). Now, if you want more incentive, the kicks are worth about $1k+ on the resale market! So, how can you score them for retail?
If you know anything about cool drops, it’s that they’re low-key hard to score for retail. So, if you need a little boost for your luck, then you’re in the right place! All you need is a sneaker bot like NSB in your arsenal to have the best odds on drop day. If you wanna learn more about copping kicks, check this out.
