- Physical sneakers are expected to ship in Q4 2023.

❗Why It Matters
RTFKT joins a group of 2021 projects with waning excitement and a growing negative sentiment, but the forging events and merchandise brings the project back to its roots of *phygital* fashion. However, despite those roots, questions arose this week about a potential quality of the RTFKT product. The Nike Air Force 1 forge has been one of the most highly anticipated apparel forges for the company, putting its Nike acquisition to good use - but it seems it will still need to provide a quality experience to start earning back the trust of the community.

The Forging Checker is available on the home page of the site and only requires a user to input the OpenSea ID of the NFT they are looking to forge. If the NFT is available for a claim, users will simply need to sign in and select "forge" to complete the process.
