The Fast and Furious x Puma collection reimagines iconic movie cars through a set of basketball and lifestyle sneakers inspired by vehicles from the film franchise. The release translates automotive colorways and details into footwear tied to specific characters and cars, including Brian O’Conner’s Toyota Supra, Suki’s Honda S2000, Dom Toretto’s Dodge Charger, and the Nissan Skyline GT R. Puma applies these references across silhouettes such as the MB.05, LaFrance, and LaFrance RNR, combining layered materials, contrast stitching, and graphic accents drawn from racing culture.
Each sneaker integrates franchise branding alongside Puma performance construction, balancing visual storytelling with wearable formats. The collection is scheduled for global availability on February 12, 2026, through Puma and select retailers.
