International footwear behemoth Nike has just taken a giant leap into metaverse. Nike announced the acquisition of RTFKT, an NFT collectibles and fashion brand, on Twitter on Friday. One of RTFKT's flagship products is a hybrid NFT/physical shoe collectible inspired by legendary CryptoPunks NFT collection which made headlines in March when a digital footwear collaboration with prolific NFT artist FEWOCiOUS sold $3.1M in metaverse kicks.
