Hold on to your laces, sneakerheads! Nike's walking (or should we say running) into the world of NFTs with a swagger that only a footwear giant can pull off. Brace yourselves for the debut of Nike's first-ever digital sneaker drop on the Swoosh Web3 community platform, the Our Force 1 (OF1) collection.
Picture this: Polygon virtual sneaker NFTs that pay homage to the legendary Nike Air Force 1 sneaker from 41 years ago. These bad boys come in two flavours: Classic Remix boxes with virtual kicks from 1982 to 2006, and New Wave boxes flaunting pairs designed post-2007.
Hidden treasures await with custom AF1s peppered among the boxes, either with a nostalgic or futuristic twist.
With each virtual sneaker box costing just $19.82 (a cheeky wink to the Air Force 1's debut year), Nike's keeping it real by ditching crypto payments. That's right, folks - only cold, hard cash will do.
Old sole, new story.
The #OurForce1 collection features digital renditions of AF1s past, present and future built for the next generation.
Nike’s first-ever virtual collection is inspired by the AF1 Low, a classic style remixed hundreds of times since it dropped in ‘82.

Want to know how many of these OF1 NFTs are up for grabs? Well, so do we! Nike's keeping it mysterious with no set limit. Airdropping virtual AF1 posters to randomly selected Swoosh members starts tomorrow, with minting following on May 8. All 330,000+.Swoosh members can get their hands on the OF1 boxes come May 10.
But wait, there's more! Nike's been working with its talented Swoosh community to bring four fan-envisioned virtual shoe designs to life. These co-created masterpieces will be sprinkled among both box types, making this drop as exclusive as it gets.
Nike's vision doesn't end here. Holders of OF1 boxes can expect future perks like access to exclusive physical products and experiences. With this approach, Nike focuses on community participation rather than raking in NFT revenue.
So, buckle up for a sneaker revolution that'll leave you tongue-tied and itching to get your virtual feet into some fresh kicks!
