The Pokémon x PUMA Collection

The homie Riley is getting some free kicks from our giveaway last week. More to come soon 💪

For today's story, Pokémon and Puma are dropping a collection of kicks on November 12th (tomorrow). The drops features five different sneakers inspired by classic Pokémon from the original 151 🔮

I don't expect these to be a massive smash hit with the sneaker community, but I think Pokefans will support the drop and cop out

  • The Charmander sneaker is an all suede Puma Slipstream featuring familiar Charmander colors

  • The Squirtle sneaker may be the most wearable of the bunch, featuring a calm silhouette in all blue suede

  • The Pikachu and Bulbasaur inspired sneakers are Puma Rider FVs. There is also a basketball sneaker (TRC Blaze Court) being released with the pack in a purple Gengar colorway

I think Pokémon is cool, and I grew up playing the games on Gameboy just like everyone else did. I love sneakers obviously, so you’d think that I’d be right in the target demo for these, but frankly I can't see myself ever wearing them 🥶

That being said, I can imagine they'll be a huge hit at Comic-Con. What do you think of these 👇

Would you rock these Pokémon shoes?
