Herzogenaurach, 8 December, 2022 – To mark the launch of its first ever collection of virtual wearables, this December, adidas Originals hosted (Probably) Real – an immersive, invite-only event that redefined our relationship with physical and virtual space in Miami.
Through the use of immersive screens and AR technology, the product-led experience took hundreds of visitors on a journey through the adidas web3 universe – from its origins in 2021 to the launch of the brand’s first ever collection of NFT wearables, “Virtual Gear”.

Visitors then transition between virtual and real spaces as they enter ‘Indigo’s Lab’. Known as the creative powerhouse leading adidas’ journey ‘Into The Metaverse’, the adidas Bored Ape NFT, Indigo Herz, opens their lab to attendees with an array of impossible sketches and real-time builds for a selection of the “Virtual Gear – Genesis Collection”.
Traversing into the metaverse, the final space – ‘(Probably) A Dressing Room’ – invites guests to try on the Virtual Gear collection in real time through a DressX interactive AR Mirror.
