The recently released Hussein Chalayan PUMA Urban Mobility FW11 Collection for men stays true to its roots by offering a series of clothing suitable for a busy lifestyle. The purpose behind the line was to offer consumers a wide range of highly functional and fashionable pieces. While PUMA is well-known for its athletic aesthetics, the PUMA Urban Mobility FW11 Collection offers plenty of urban-appropriate cold weather essentials.
The color scheme for the collection centers around a much darker palette including shades of indigo, black and gray. From its jackets to its zip-up hooded sweaters to the dapper-looking peacoat, the PUMA Urban Mobility FW11 Collection has everything the urban male needs to stay stylish and warm this winter season.
