Nike and Fortnite Team Up to Add Four New Digital Sneaker Models to the Game
Get ready to level up your virtual sneaker game, because Nike and Fortnite have just dropped four new models for you to add to your collection. These digital “kicks” were released less than a week ago, but the collaboration is already expanding with the addition of these four new models.
The first model in the lineup is the Air Force 1 Low “Bronx Origins,” paying homage to the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, the 40th anniversary of the Air Force 1, and the shoe’s popularity in the Bronx. In a cool twist, the first streamer to ever receive a Nike sponsorship, Kai Cenat, hails from the Bronx. Next up is the Blazer Mid ’77 “Washed Denim,” followed by the Mercurial Superfly 10 Elite “Mad Voltage” and the Pegasus 41 “Hot Punch.”
These virtual sneakers can be purchased now using V-Bucks, Fortnite’s in-game currency. And the best part? They are compatible with over 500 of the game’s existing skins, with plans to make them compatible with even more by 2025. The Air Force 1 Low “Bronx Origins” will cost you 1,000 V-Bucks, while the other three models are priced at 800 V-Bucks each.
For those unfamiliar with V-Bucks, they typically cost around $9 USD, making these digital sneakers a steal compared to their real-life counterparts. And if you’re looking to show off your new kicks, there’s even a free “Show ‘Em Off” emote available in the game.
So what are you waiting for? Upgrade your virtual sneaker game with these new Nike x Fortnite models now.
