Puma's pop-up shop has made an appearance in New York City as a shipping container store. The two 40-foot shipping containers are painted in the signature Puma red and the interior has been converted into a soccer shop, presumably to honor the World Cup.
The coolest part about the Puma pop-up shop shipping container store is the fact that there is a nearby soccer pitch, so buyers can test out their new soccer cleats or jerseys right away.
I really like the idea of turning shipping containers into stores. They have already been used to create pretty cool houses so it's only a matter of time before they are applied to different uses and structures.
