When it comes to collaborations the German shoe company Puma and the Italian motorcycle manufacture Ducati are no strangers. Back in 2007 Puma and Ducati collaborated together to design what is known as the Panigale, a shoe specifically designed by Puma with creative insights from Ducati. The name Panigale comes from the Bologna section where the Ducati headquarters is.
This year Puma and Ducati got together again to revamp the Panigale and release the Panigale II. Just like the release in 2007 two colorways were designed for the release, white/black/silver and black/silver. Some noticeable differences compared to the first release is the slanted lace area which seems to have been straightened out a little bit and doesnt have as much of an angle anymore. Theres also the fact that the sole now sports some sort of design on the bottom, whereas the other ones were simply just tread.
Follow the jump for a closer look at the Puma x Ducati Panigale II and stay tuned for a look at two Puma Street Cruiser models Puma and Ducati also worked on this year.
