We Are Alter
Over the years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to the art of sampling and fine-tuning, ensuring that every product from Alter ranks among the best in terms of quality, presentation, attention to detail, and overall experience. When you support or make a purchase from Alter, you’re not just acquiring a product, but fostering our growth – a growth that, in turn, bolsters our community.
In a departure from traditional release methods, our products are unveiled in a narrative-like sequence of chapters, each revealing a new product. Accompanying this narrative, we also feature our limited edition Alter Drops.
Chapter One – The Caps
Chapter Two – Hoodies & Jumpers
Chapter Three – Awaiting Reveal
Alter Drops – These limited edition streetwear releases, each bearing a unique facet. They may be paired with additional tangible goods, exclusive services, collaborative features, or simply be a distinct, one-off release.
At Alter, we’re not just creating products, we’re crafting stories and experiences, uniquely tailored to our community.

How do we assure the authenticity of our products?
For our caps, we employ NFC tags programmed to correlate with the unique on-chain representation of each item, as shown in the accompanying video.
In the case of our hoodies and jumpers, QR codes serve as the link back to their on-chain collection, ensuring traceability and authenticity.
As we persistently seek to enhance our authentication and verification methods, we’re venturing into the integration of NFC tags into our hoodies and jumpers.
Why this pursuit?
Numerous reasons underpin our approach. While ensuring product authentication and ownership verification is paramount, we envision expanding beyond this. Our exploration extends to offering additional perks like exclusive event access and more.
Imagine procuring a limited-edition Alter collaboration with a club, which not only gives you an exclusive item but also a key to elite events hosted by the club, effectively turning your product/NFT into a VIP ticket.
As Alter prepares to stride into the metaverse, we’re considering the option of upgrading standard NFT versions to metaverse wearable NFT versions. This means your meta avatar could match your real-world style.
The possibilities are vast, and we’re just beginning to scratch the surface. The sheer potential in this space fuels our excitement and passion for the future.

The Genesis
The genesis of Alter traces back to the early days of 2021. The seed of the idea was meticulously nurtured through careful planning, extensive sampling, and diligent fine-tuning, ensuring the establishment of a robust foundation for Alter. We refrained from a hasty launch based on mere vision, instead committing to the process of creation and consolidation. This dedication to building a solid groundwork mirrors our core values and distinguishes our merchandise services. In essence, our foundational year was spent breathing life into our vision, aligning our commitment to what we stand for, and shaping Alter to stand out from the crowd.
