The ongoing series of crypto artwork will feature the collective's digital iteration of the popular footwear. Luis Rotondaro, who is part of the project talks about the new series, “We’re sneaker heads first and we collect shoes that ‘mean’ something for us, I still have shoes from when i was in high school and they all mean something for me so we want every drop to mean something to people who will and have our NFTs." There are currently three NFTs, a set of 'Donks' and the latest 'Jurdan 1' with more to come.
