Assurely to start offering sneakers insurance

“This partnership gets us one step closer to launching the strongest sneaker evaluation and insurance offering in the market for our customers . Assurely is well-known as the leading InsurTech to build and embed customized insurance to fit the needs of our clients and platform. We’re excited and honored to have them on our team.” – Michael Ogden, co-founder of Unboxed.

“Unboxed solves the huge challenge of knowing the value of your shoes and authenticating them. Unboxed is communicating truth. All the data indicated that this market needed an insurance solution to complement that. We partnered with Unboxed because of their vision for addressing the gaps in the sneaker world — evaluation, authentication, and now insurance. This market now has a solution to deliver protection and trust to complement that truth.” – David Carpentier, CEO and co-founder of Assurely.

“There is a lot of fake stuff out there on the market. I want to say very simply, Unboxed has solutions for this. We know how to authenticate sneakers and embedding insurance makes Unboxed even that much better. Knowing the value and the ability to insure your soles is game-changing. Assurely delivered and our members will benefit from it.” – James Washington, co-founder of Unboxed.

“The Unboxed solution is incredibly impressive, and it is desperately needed. We have made progress, but we still have to make a lot more progress in Black and Brown communities around owning one’s own business. The needle is going in the right direction, but it needs to go a fair distance more, and it needs to go faster. Insurance companies, including Assurely, that are willing to partner with a minority-owned business at the beginning of its life cycle are important and needed in the minority community.” – Wilson Associates founder Ali Wilson.

Bottom Line: SoleSafe comes to mind.
