RTFKT are the creators of virtual sneakers and collectibles, merging realities in fashion and gaming. The startup basically develops customized shoes for the metaverses and has a range of offerings with a couple of flagships also. In fact, one of its flagship products takes inspiration from the legendary CryptoPunks NFT collection.
