Haribo and PUMA work in collaboration to create a sweet and playful collection of sneaker models. There are two sneakers that make up the collection: the Street Rider and the CA Pro sneaker. Both shoes are made to celebrate Haribo's most notable candies: the iconic Goldbears and Happy Cherries.
Each shoe is designed to represent each gummy candy. The Street Rider celebrates Happy Cherries and has a mesh and synthetic construction across the upper in a gradient design from red to lime green. The CA Pro sneakers are not as vibrant in design and celebrates the Goldbears candy. Metallic gold makes up the trimming and the Formstrip is applied in white with gold details to round out the design.
