Swear London's NFT collection is the first of its kind from the luxury footwear brand and it is set to be launched with international game studio Darewise Entertainment and Skinvaders. This collection of non-fungible tokens within the sci-fi multiplayer online role-playing game will be released in early 2023 on the Life Beyond metaverse platform so that users can express their sense of style with nostalgic pieces like Swear’s iconic 90s chunky platform shoes.
Timothee Semelin, head of partnerships at Life Beyond, said "We know the community and the project will bring a new level of innovation to Life Beyond while also bridging digital and physical fashion. We foresee a unique in-game functionality for Swear NFTs as well as ties to Swear fashion products in real life."
