Tommy Play on [Roblox](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-world) is a new virtual store on the open-world platform and this immersive destination is a space for fun, exploration and interaction. The design of the new metaverse store offers a nod to the brand’s heritage via animal statues inspired by the Bronx Zoo and tags from local street artists. Additionally, the interior design of the store was designed by creatives who worked with the brand for its initial Roblox product launch in December 2021.

Tommy Play is a space for virtual visitors to express themselves and connect with other users by painting, dancing and finding secret spaces for parties. The virtual store also serves as the hub for the puffers, windbreakers, hoodies and accessories that launched as part of the [Tommy Jeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roblox-fashion) Pop collection.
