You can get with this, or you can get with that. No, really. Just because the shoes are dubbed the Puma Old Vs. New Pack, doesn’t mean you have to choose between the two. Today we take a look at a Puma R698 and a Puma R698 Ignite that together make up the aforementioned pack.

The Puma R698 will come dressed in a black upper contrasted by the violet hits on the nubuck toe and open mesh with the reflective underlay across the vamp. Hits of volt are seen on the eyelets, branding on the heel and outsole. While teal accents round out the major hues on the shoe. On the other side of the spectrum you have the R698 Ignite which comes in a white base offset by the teal, green and black hits placed throughout the shoe. The modern version of the 698 comes with an Ignite Foam sole to improve the comfort and feel of the shoe. The Puma R698 will cost you $110, while the Puma R698 Ignite will set you back $120. So what’s it going to be?

The Puma R698 Ignite looks a bit more sleek looking. The fact that it comes with added comfort on the sole makes me want to choose this pair over the PG R698. Both colorways are clean. Great job on the pack, Puma.

Pink sneakers anyone? If you’re a fan of the pink look, you’re going to want to look at the Puma Suede Sakura. The classic model gets dressed in a light pink hue to prepare it for Japan’s Cherry Blossom season.

The Puma Suede comes constructed out of a light pink premium suede upper that covers the entire upper of the shoe. Perforation holes are placed on the side panes accompanying the tonal Puma stripe branding. Joining to tonal look of the shoe is the gold accent placed on the Puma branding right above the Puma stripe. Adding a balanced touch to the shoe is the white placed on the sole and laces. Said to be dropping internationally on March 25th for around $224, is this a colorway you’re diggin’?

It’s a solid “pink” sneaker. It’s not too overpowering and it looks great on the model. The only problem I have with the shoe is the price. $224? Really?

Puma’s DISC running system has been one of the most head-turning technological updates in the running industry. The innovation features a revolutionary laceless design with a forefoot dial that holds an internal wire system capable of tightening when turned clockwise, giving a custom fit to any runner wearing the a DISC-championing model. That update was over a half-decade ago, and now the German lifestyle brand is back with the introduction of the Puma Ignite Disc Sleeve. The creation rests on an Ignite foam base that help return energy back to the runner’s foot while absorbing some of the shock from running. A sleeker, minimalist upper utilizes a Disc system that sheds some of the original weight. Check out a detailed photo set below and we’ll update you on a release date in the near future.

Kylie Jenner, much to the chagrin of Kanye West, has joined forces with Puma to bring the brand some high visibility to the young teen demographic. It starts with this ad, revealed through Jenner’s Instagram, featuring a new sneaker called the Puma Fierce, as well as some accompanying athleisure apparel in the form of tights, sports bras/tops, and likely much more. The shoe is rather similar to Rihanna’s Fenty Trainer silhouette, only without the gaudy tongue. Will Jenner’s affiliation help the brand appeal to the younger, impressionable, generation? All signs point to a resounding “yes”, given just how successful her side-hustles have been and how coveted Kylie is among other brands. Check out the full advertisement below.

I really like it when collaborative sneakers use dual branding on their shoes. These pairs opt to do that and it looks pretty dope. Not a big Puma fan but I appreciate the collaborative efforts on these pairs.

I’m a fan of the silhouette’s simplicity overall and this colorful iteration is pretty solid. I like how the brightness are only implemented on distinctive areas. It balances well with the main tones.

PUMA constantly gets overlooked by many people. Whether it’s their runners like the Blaze of Glory or R698 or classic lifestyle silhouettes like the Suede Classic, they don’t get the attention that they deserve.

One of the newest styles and colorways that PUMA has created is this Cabernet Red (burgundy) colorway of the legendary PUMA Suede Classic. Just as the name states, the entire upper of this shoe is dressed in a burgundy suede with contrasting white detailing on the branding stripe, inner liner and rubber midsole/outsole. Additional PUMA branding in gold has also been added on the side panels for that classic look.

Hit up your local PUMA retailers now for availability and give us your take on this colorway down in the comments section. Retail price has been set at $70.

Burgundy shoes ALWAYS catch my attention no matter the brand or silhouette. The PUMA Suede Classic is on of those silhouettes that will never go out of style and this colorway can be matched up easily with practically anything.

The minute the Rihanna x Puma Fenty Trainer collaboration was unveiled last week, it immediately caused a stir due to its unique aesthetics. People appeared to be shocked that Rihanna’s first original sneaker collaboration was this distinctive looking opposed to taking the safe route and releasing something overwhelming. More than a week had passed and it seems like more people than not are diggin’ the shoes. Today we get a look at the shoe on none other than Rihanna herself.

Rihanna is seen rocking the Fenty Trainer during a recent SS16 campaign. Opting to go with the all-black version, the shoe includes Ariaprene construction to give you that secure and breathable fit. In addition to that, distinct features such as the supportive high tongue and TPU Kurim cage with a fully reflective underlays give the shoe it’s one-of-a-kind look. This athletic trainer appears to work just as good on the streets as it does in the gym. Set to release tomorrow, how many ladies are looking to pick up a pair?

I was on the fence when I initially saw the shoe last week, but now that I’ve had time to get a good look at the shoe, I’m very impressed with Rihanna’s first original sneaker collaboration. It’s different, but it’s good. Great work!

Easter Sunday is a little more than one month away. When it comes to Easter sneakers, brands usually tend release shoes covered in subtle pastel colorways. Looking to switch things up a bit is the Puma Easter pack you see above. Consisting of the Puma Suede, Puma Roma and Puma GV Special, every single one of these pairs comes dressed in colorways and prints that we usually don’t associate with Easter.

As you can see in the uppers of all three pairs, you will find features on the shoes such as paint splatter, geometric prints and iridescent chrome hits taking care of the busy looking uppers. Tonal or contrasting midsole compliment the upper on this not-your-ordinary Easter pack. What’s your favorite pair? Let us know in the comments below?

All three are pretty unique in their own way, but the one that really caught my eye was the Puma Roma covered in the paint splatter. Too clean!
