This thread is made by me to provide regular updates about the process of Ape Shoes, starting with a consumer insight form.
This is the first step before we are granted the funds once KYC is finished and then we move onto making techpack for the community to vote in.
This thread will also be updated as we get new collabs with projects interested in the Ape Shoes.
Update #1
Kindly answer some questions in our Consumer Feedback form that will help us curate the techpack designs with more efficiency. https://forms.gle/UqQ6HoHX2n5CRiZ8A
Update #2
As of today, 6th March 2025, I’ve signed the grant agreement sent by the foundation and we await for the funds.
Update #3
Consumer Feedback form is live, we recieved funds 14th March 2025. The official timeline begins now
Update #4
Below are the 3 designs we’ve decided that go up for you, the community to decide. So far the community has voted the element of comfort and sneakers as their choice.
We decided to add Canvas design as well since it was one of the first prototype we had followed by the mixed feelings around the design the community currently wears.
Update #5
Due to rising war tensions in the country and out of respect for those impacted followed by my workers, we’re putting the AIP-540 Ape Shoes launch on hold.
Will be informing the Foundation in proper manner through @Facilitators soon
Thank you for giving insight! You are right as people dont wear only 1 kind of shoe, different places different wears. My goal originally is to create something that the Ape community can wear everyday. First prototype was a canvas as I love to play around it and its in my opinion best type of design to test out colors palette and overall design of Apecoin and Apechain logo.
Thanks! I actually thought of adding these questions as well but felt like they were more personal even tho its just a question or 2 xD
But goal of this form is to get insight that will help Apecoin DAO and Ape shoes. This has helped me get a bit more clarity about what the general audience that attend events and walk around all day during ETH and NFT events want! So letssgooo
Love them! I’m working on my MBA license and will surely make this a product available right from the get go. Had a talk with some Ape frens from Florida and I had a mixed feeling about this vs sandals; everyday footwear VS beach day type of footwears hahahaha.
But yeh 10/10 they are in my to-do list in coming months.
