The PUMA RS-X model experiences a culture-forward renaissance as Japanese streetwear boutique atmos launches a special rendition of the silhouette.
The bespoke footwear boasts a shiny and chromatically rich exterior. The design of the upper "draws from the heritage of Japanese Ukiyo-e art, specifically influenced by Nikuhitsu-ga woodblock prints." The infusion of such elements that are culturally relevant makes for the creation of a highly desirable shoe that is bound to capture the attention of sneakerheads.
When creating the aesthetic for the bespoke PUMA RS-X model, atmos was inspired by tonal compositions in Ukiyoemon Mitomoya's artwork. The ultra-chromatic upper is definitely something that draws the eye to the silhouette.
The sneakers are available through atmos' e-commerce platform and are retailing for ¥14,000.
