# Science-Themed Shoe Packs The Puma 'The List Elemental Pack' is Inspired by the Periodic Table By Michael Hines | Published 2011-04-02 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-the-list-elemental-pack References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/news/2011/03/30/puma-the-list-elemental-pack/) & [puma](http://www.puma.com/) Thanks to the Puma 'The List Elemental Pack,' science geeks finally have a shoe or two to call their own. Puma's latest shoe pack is modeled after the Faas 300 running shoe and is based on the elements on the periodic table and comes with accompanying apparel. I am no science guy, but I still would have loved to rock a pair of Bromine-branded Pumas to chemistry class. The accompanying apparel consists of elemental jackets and shirts that actually make science-themed clothing look cool. Puma is not the biggest name in the shoe game, but their releases are consistently interesting and their collaborations are always inspired. The PUMA 'The List Elemental Pack' is set to hit retailers sometime in early April. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Science-themed Shoe Packs:** The trend of creating science-themed shoe packs offers an opportunity for footwear companies to target niche markets and tap into the interests of science enthusiasts. - **Periodic Table-inspired Fashion:** The trend of incorporating elements from the periodic table into fashion provides an innovative opportunity for apparel companies to create unique and science-inspired clothing lines. - **Collaborative Sneaker Releases:** The trend of collaborating with other brands or themes, like Puma's partnership with science, presents an opportunity for sneaker companies to attract new customers and create buzz around their products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Footwear:** The footwear industry can explore the creation of science-themed shoe packs as a novel way to attract specific consumer segments and explore new design concepts. - **Apparel:** The apparel industry can capitalize on the trend of incorporating elements from the periodic table into fashion by offering science-inspired clothing items that appeal to science enthusiasts. - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can leverage collaborative sneaker releases to create unique and attention-grabbing shoe collections that resonate with a wider audience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sci-Fi Sneaker Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-x-et-collection.md) - [Film-Inspired Sneaker Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/et-series.md) - [Holographic Game-Inspired Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-5.md) - [Marathon Season-Ready Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marathon-majors.md) - [Mismatched Sci-Fi Cartoon Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-x-rick-and-morty-mb05.md) - [Performance Running Footwear Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/performance-running-footwear.md) - [Cinematic Sneaker Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fast-furious-x-puma.md) - [Mismatched Creature Feature Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puma-x-gremlins-collection.md) - [Collaborative Running Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/running-collections.md)
