The boots are crafted from sustainable materials, showcasing the company’s commitment to eco-friendly practices. Memeland said its partner, Timberland ensured that the leather used in the exclusive kicks is responsibly sourced.
Each pair features Memeland’s exclusive shoelace “dubraés” with a hidden monogram embossed inside the tongues to add a unique touch to the boots. The lace will come in three different colors: classic yellow, sleek black, and standout gold.
Not the First
As for the accepted payment method, Memeland has yet to reveal which crypto assets it will accept for its new line of boots, leaving many to speculate about the potential payment options.
A few days ago, the company hinted that incorporating meme coins, including its own native tokenMEME, for payments could be a game changer for the industry.
Meanwhile, Memeland is not the first to join forces with a well-known brand in targeting the crypto-savvy market. Earlier this year, in April, sportswear giant Adidas partnered with Stepn, a Solana-based fitness platform that rewards users for physical activity.
However, while Memeland will be bringing out physical shoes for users, Adidas and Stepn are taking a different approach. The two companies ventured into the digital realm with the release of the Stepn x Adidas Genesis Sneaker. This collection features just 1,000 digital sneakers, each represented as a non-fungible token (NFT).
Earlier this week, the duo announced that they will be releasing the second collection of the Stepn x Adidas Genesis Sneaker following the successful sale of the first batch.
Although Adidas and Stepn are currently focused on creating digital sneakers, they plan to introduce physical wearables in the future. The partnership will last for one year.
