UK artist Skepta has made a significant mark in fashion, collaborating with top brands to create iconic sneaker designs. While his time with Nike was filled with collaborative sneakers, his latest endeavor with Puma saw him bring forth his sneaker design, the Puma Forever. Drawing inspiration from archival Y2K-era Puma silhouettes, the initial release sold out swiftly, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the next drop. Before Puma and Skepta can roll out a new general release colorway, the duo has partnered with Dover Street Market for an exclusive edition launching through the renowned retailer.
The Puma Forever DSM Exclusive showcases a refined design with a mix of leather and mesh materials, deviating from the original's 3M panels. This exclusive colorway features a forest green leather wrapping around the toe, midfoot, and heel, providing a rich and earthy tone. The base is constructed from yellow mesh, adding a vibrant contrast to the green leather. Burgundy red laces add an extra pop of color and tie in beautifully with the tongue's Skepta and Puma co-branded logo. The sneaker is completed with a chrome and black midsole, offering a sleek look further enhanced by the tonal outsole.
The Skepta x Puma Forever DSM Exclusive will release on June 15, 2024, through Dover Street Market Paris and London online and in-store. Coming in men’s sizing, the retail price has yet to be determined.
