Germany's Puma unveils metaverse experience Black Station at NYFW

9/7/2022

0 Comments

 
German sports company Puma has unveiled its first ever metaverse website experience, called Black Station, which features exclusive NFTs with limited edition redeemable physical sneakers, as part of its 'Futrograde' show during New York Fashion Week. Black Station has been imagined as an immersive and interactive place to experience the future of the brand.

As a blank and ever-evolving 3D canvas, Black Station will become a dynamic destination to visit, connecting consumers with various Web 3.0 activations emerging over the course of the next year and beyond, the company said in a media release.
"Twenty years ago, Black Station was Puma's home for our most innovative designs in fashion," said Adam Petrick, Puma's chief brand officer. "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."
The experience begins with visitors entering a hyper-realistic digital lobby space with three separate portals. The first two portals, accessible beginning today, will unveil exclusive never-seen-before Nitro NFRNO and Nitro Fastroid sneakers linked to Puma's recent NFT Nitropass mint.
Those who minted a Nitropass can receive two NFTs—one tied to physical products and one that unlocks a customised experience linked to their chosen shoe. Following the Futrograde show, minters can claim their physical sneakers by burning their product claimed NFT. This marks unchartered territory for the brand in the Web 3.0 space, establishing its first Puma-owned NFT that links digital design with in-real-life physical products for consumers.
For the digital product design, Puma encouraged their in-house designers to push the creative boundaries to envision what a 3D digital sneaker could look like. "Our team of designers took a lot of liberties when envisioning these footwear styles. We told them the sky is the limit. As a result, we were able to harness their creativity without the typical confines and limitations of our shoe production process," said Heiko Desens, global creative director and head of innovation. "What is just as impressive as the actual designs is the fact that we were actually able to work with development to bring these stunning designs to life."
The sneakers recontextualise iconic Puma features through bold, innovative designs. Fastroid takes a performance tech silhouette to the extreme with exaggerated volumes of Nitro foam in gradient high-impact hues. With ‘sport is art’ as the guiding ambition, NFRNO appears like a hybrid collision of the past and future, drawing inspiration from obscure archive styles to arrive at a multi-part moulded construction, the release added.
