The Hundred and PUMA work in collaboration to spotlight sustainable construction with the new collection entitled a Hopeful Future. The capsule puts an emphasis on the sustainable initiative as the two look for ways to work towards a better future for the environment and utilize materials such as recycled rubber, polyester, chrome-free leather, and organic cotton as well.

The capsule is made up of [two sneaker silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avanti-ls) including the [PUMA Clyde](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aries-and-puma) in a black and white tonal option. This is detailed with some branding accents that nod to [The Hundreds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hundreds-and-tetris) as well and can be found on the insole and the tongue. The second sneaker is more colorful and comes from the sportswear label's RS-line.
