In this round-up, we’ll outline our Top Drop of 2023, Close Second and Special Mention PUMA sneakers. So, continue reading to discover which sneakers have truly made their mark this year.
The collaboration between Rihanna and PUMA commenced in 2014 when the singer was appointed as the creative director for women’s apparel at PUMA. She has previously enjoyed several successful partnerships with this sportswear brand, and now, in 2023, they have once again joined forces.
PUMA initially launched the Avanti back in 2001, and in 2023, the duo revived this silhouette once more. The sneaker’s design intersects two of PUMA’s iconic styles: the King football boot and the Easy Rider running shoe. The outcome is an elegant vintage leather shoe with a streamlined sole. Moreover, the sneaker boasts a distinctive folded tongue adorned with both ‘Fenty’ and the PUMA logo in either gold or silver.
Coming in next, we’ve got the PUMA x Footpatrol Velophasis, a sneaker that taps nicely into the ‘Dad Shoe’ trend. Drawing inspiration from the iconic Y2K era, this shoe effortlessly combines diverse aesthetics, from refined to bold, on its retro-inspired design.
Sporting a futuristic colour palette of ‘Metallic Silver’ and icy blue hues, the upper predominantly features transparent materials. Completing the look, the heel features distinct gel branding, paying a subtle tribute to the era’s fascination with inflatable furnishings.
The Japanese label nanamica first collaborated with PUMA in 2022. In 2023, the duo reunited to release two colorways of the PUMA Clyde. What sets this sneaker apart is its GORE-TEX upper, ensuring resilience against all weather conditions.
The PUMA Clyde GTX exudes a contemporary aesthetic. Its upper blends leather and suede materials seamlessly. The exposed lace unit lends the sneaker an elegant touch. The model’s Formstrip and branding logos grace the mid-panel.
