The [Puma sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-x-rick-and-morty-mb05) you see here are the brain child of Frenchman Manuel Angot, also known as Art Force One. Featuring a [white camouflage exterior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-cat-colorway) and, oh ya, a set of headphones with every purchase, these kicks are perfect for the [sneaker head](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drip) that wants to have a theme song accompany him as he walks down the street.
