PUMA Draws Inspiration from One Piece Film: Gold for the New Cell Venom
Sportswear label PUMA introduces its latest iteration of the Cell Venom sneakers -- this time, the brand draws inspiration from 'One Piece Film: Gold.' The new anime film serves as the influence, highlighting the antagonist Gild Tesoro, who is the "former casino king and proprietor of Gran Tesoro, which is the largest entertainment city-ship in the world."
The bold design showcases a color palette of gold and silver across the uppers in a pattern that recalls Sanji's eyebrows. The show features overlaying details at the mid-panels and the branding accents are informed in gold. The shoe's vamp displays a crisscrossed chain in gold as another flashy design element. This component holds a pirate key that has a skull emblem centered in the middle. This chain is then connected to silver leather loops found at the heel tab and the toe box.
