Another Colorway Of The Puma Ignite evoKNIT Is Available Now

Puma Ignite EvoKnit 1 Puma Ignite EvoKnit 2 Puma Ignite EvoKnit 3

Sock-like uppers and knit constructions. Those seem to be a reoccurring trend in sneakers as of late. One brand that had yet to get into that style of sneakers is Puma. Until now. We recently gave you a first look at the shoe, and now we’re here to shoe you a brand new colorway of it. Let’s check out the Puma Ignite evoKNIT.

The Puma Ignite evoKNIT is a knit/sock-like constructed shoe made out of their own product in which they call Proknit. The Proknit upper sort of has that jacquard look to it. Aside from the knit construction, the shoe is held down by the nylon straps placed on the vamp that heel provide additional ankle and heel support. The straps are also a part of the lacing system, thus working double time in the shoe. Below you will find a grooved sole unit to round out the main features on the shoe. Available now, how many of you like what you see on the Puma Ignite evoKNIT?

The Puma Suede needs no introduction as it has been around since 1968. The classic silhouette has withstood the test of time and has been popularized by track stars, basketball players, b-boys and hip hop, punk rock and skaters. Thanks to its versatility, the Suede is constantly worn by different types of people that have different interests.

This year Puma has decided to give the Suede some young influence as a handful of tastemakers have become the face of the current generation who wears the Puma Suede. A couple of those tastemakers include hip hop duo Rae Sremmurd. Puma has linked up with legendary OG street photographer Jamel Shabazz to shoot the young tastemakers in Suedes and streetwear garb around Bed-stuy in Brooklyn. The images will be showcased in PUMA stores globally and featured on social channels.

Puma hopes that people seeing these young breed of tastemakers rocking the Suede will give the iconic sneaker a fresh perspective. Are you a fan of the Puma Suede?

Puma is a brand that doesn’t really use the sock-like construction on a lot of their models. Looking to change things up, Puma has created the Puma Ignite EvoKnit.

This brand new model has an upper that utilizes a knit upper that is known as Puma’s “Proknit”. In addition to the woven upper, it also comes with the aforementioned sock-lie ankle collar that helps give the shoe its modern look and feel.

The BMW x Puma X-Cat Disc Looks Like A Sneaker From The Future

BMW x PUMA  1 BMW x PUMA  2 BMW x PUMA  3 BMW x PUMA  4

BMW gets together with Puma to collaborate on a futuristic looking sneaker. The Puma X-Cat Disc dons a sleek look we’ve never seen on the model before. Let’s get a closer look.

The BMW x Puma X-Cat Disc is a combination of the futuristic design of Puma’s Disc model with the streamlined power and efficiency of BMW. The shoe is inspired from one of BMW’s innovative concept car, the GINA Light Visionary Model. The concept car features a fabric outer shell that stretches over the car?s chassis. The X-CAT DISC comes with a thin and laser-cut layer of the stretchable and super-light GINA material on the upper. That means that not many seams are needed to hold the shoe together since the material wraps around the shoe like a skin layer. No laces are used either, as a rotating disc pulls internal wires to tighten and loosen the shoe. The BMW x Puma X-Cat Disc drops on July 1st, are you interested in the shoe?

Author’s Take

The concept/inspiration is spot on, but I don’t like the model it’s done on. It’s a pass for me. I’ll just take the car, thank you.
