Puma Gale Wn – Sailing Pack
We present to you the third and final release in the Puma Sailing Pack. Here we have the Puma Gale Wn which is a design part of the Sailing Pack that Puma designed strictly for the ladies. The boat shoes use an off-white canvas upper accented with pink and white. Looping throughout the upper of the Puma Gale Wn is a fatty pair of shoelaces. Wrapping up the design is a slip-resistant sole unit which sports a white mid-sole with a navy blue Puma stamp.
Look for the Puma Gale Wn now and the rest of the Puma Sailing Pack which includes the Puma Aqua Mostro and the Puma Keel at select Puma retailers now.
Puma Keel – Sailing Pack
Continuing along with the Puma Sailing Pack we bring you the Puma Keel. Just like the Puma Aqua Mostro which we just showed you the Keel is a model with boating/sailing in mind featuring waterproof materials.
The Puma Keel carries a simple white waterproof canvas upper accented with a navy blue stripe above the sole unit and a navy blue Puma logo’s on the mid-sole and heel. The key element in this design which really ties it into boating is the rope style shoelaces and piece wrapping around the heel of the sneakers.
The Puma Keel is on the shelves now at select Puma retailers. Stay tuned for a look at the final sneaker involved in the Puma Sailing Pack and follow the jump for a closer look at the Keel.
Puma Aqua Mostro – Sailing Pack
In a pack designed for all the boaters out there Puma presents the Sailing Pack which consists of three specially designed Puma sneakers. First on deck (no pun intended) is the Puma Aqua Mostro which is a revamped design of their original Mostro model.
Since these are designed with sailing and boating in mind Puma constructed the Aqua Mostro using a Neoprene upper. For those not familiar with the material Neoprene is the same fabric used for diving suits, so you dont have to ever worry about these sneakers getting wet. The soles are slip-resistant which is perfect for walking across the wet decks and the toe and heel are surrounded by rubber for superior protection. Overall a nicely executed pair of water shoes.
I personally dont do as much boating anymore as i would like to but the Puma Aqua Mostro is a model which has multiple uses. If you dont have a boat you can rock these at the beach instead of wearing sandals, or even wear em at a water park this Spring/Summer season. I may just even have to get a pair to rock out in for the pool parties.
The Puma Aqua Mostro is available at select Puma retailers now. Make sure you stay tuned for more information regarding the Puma Sailing Pack and the other two models in the collection.
Bodé x PUMA Mid – Da Lizard Pack
With the success the Cheech Wizard PUMA Clydes had back in 2007, PUMA once again called out to Mark Bodé to design a pair of sneakers to honor the artwork of his father, Vaughn Bodé. Mark and PUMA this time put together two pairs of the PUMA Mid in what is called ‘Da Lizard Pack’, a pack paying tribute to a lizard character named ‘Da Lizard’ that Vaughn Bodé created in the 1950’s.
Both of the PUMA Mid’s in Da Lizard Pack feature the Da Lizard character embroidered on the side panels and on the insole and lining. The signature of Bode is included in various places on the sneakers such as on the tongue, next to the Puma logo on the side of the upper, on the back of the tongue, on the insoles and beneath the translucent sole. Both pairs will be available at a handful of PUMA retailers on May 16th along with a few extra Bodé goodies to accompany the release of the sneakers.
Follow the jump for a closer look at each pair, along with a list of retailers that will be stocking the sneakers on May 16th.
