A$AP Rocky joined his partner Rihanna when he signed a sponsorship deal with Puma at the end of 2023, marking his first brand deal since his time with Under Armour in years prior. While first working on F1 products as the creative director of Puma’s partnership with the organization, he quickly launched his co-branded products, beginning with the revival of the Inhale in 2024. Rocky is working on the Puma Mostro, adding Puma’s Disc lacing system to the model.
Puma’s Disc lacing system, initially used in 1991 to provide the perfect fit for athletes with minimal effort, has found new life throughout the brand’s golf options. However, it is now making its way to the archival Mostro silhouette. Rocky applies an all-black color palette and fused TPU overlays to reinforce the zonal mesh base layer, creating textural contrast through the molded Formstrip on the midfoot. Of course, the Disc lacing system is found on the asymmetrical tongue, allowing you to spin the wheel to adjust the tightness of the laces.
While the upper is riddled with Puma logos, seen on the tongue, Disc, heel tab, and the midfoot with the Formstrip, the insole is the only place where A$AP makes his presence known. Here, we see a custom Flacko-branded graphic applied to the insole. Finishing the sneaker is the black Mostro outsole, which extends its spiked rubber traction onto the upper sidewalls.
The A$AP Rocky x Puma Mostro Disccords will release on March 29, 2025, through Puma and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is $200.
