STEPN GO, the scaled up version of Web3 lifestyle app STEPN, has partnered with Japanese electronics company Casio for a set of NFT sneakers based on the company’s G-SHOCK watches. The sneakers go up for sale via a raffle from August 26-30, with 200 sold per day. Here are all the details:
Number of NFT sneakers up for sale: 800
Price per raffle ticket: 10,000 GMT ($1,221 at the current GMT price)
Categories: Walker, Jogger, Runner, and Trainer.
Marketplace: the FSL-owned gamified NFT exchange MOAAR
All losing tickets will be refunded
The NFT sneakers are based in the sport-driven “G-SQUAD” line of the G-SHOCK collection. For instance, one red and black Walker sneaker has a design that draws inspiration from the G-SHOCK DW-H5600-1, while a neon-colored Trainer sneaker is based on the VGA-001.
Yawn Rong, co-founder of FSL, said in a statement that the company is “always keen” to bring more traditional partnerships and IPs into STEPN GO so that they can “expose a broader audience” with its Web3 lifestyle app. Casio’s partnership with FSL is pivotal to the company’s vision of Web3 mass adoption.
FSL, a Web3 product development studio, launched the original STEPN app in 2021, with the exciting move-to-earn mechanics quickly taking the crypto world by storm. To date, it has 5.6 million registered users and 1 million player-owned sneakers. The partnership with Casio comes as STEPN GO is making a slew of moves, including the HAUS Update, the Morchi mini-game, and offline events.
