Celebratory Golden Sneakers

The PUMA Golden Suedes Mark the Suede Silhouette's 50th Anniversary

— February 22, 2018 — Fashion
PUMA released the special PUMA Golden Suede sneakers in celebration of the brand's iconic Suede silhouette's 50th anniversary. The celebratory shoes are simply a reinvented version of the classic piece, coated in an all-over golden colorway. This version of the court runner has an upper crafted completely in metallic gold leather and tonal stitching details. The laces are also in gold and embellished with the PUMA logo and the sneaker's birth year, "1968." The soles are kept a crisp white to maintain a clean and classic overall look.

The PUMA Golden Suede shoes will be priced at $100 USD and will be available in both adult and kids sizes, set for a March 3rd release online and in-store.
