For the 2024-2025 NBA season, Scoot Henderson has been a solid player for his Portland Trailblazers, averaging 11.2 points per game and 5.1 assists while shooting 40% from the field. Helping him maintain his steady work rate is his signature sneaker line with Puma, which recently expanded to include a second signature model, the Scoot Zeros II. Following up on the NBA 2K collab that helped debut the sneaker, Puma and Scoot give the Zeros II a classic Bred color scheme.
Leaning into the Portland Trailblazers’ color palette and the classic black-and-red color scheme that Jordan Brand helped make famous in basketball, the silhouette comes with these two colors plastered across its design. An iridescent black patent leather hits the overlays along the toebox, vamp, and portions of the red wing eyelets while the base layer takes on a solid black mesh. Red accents continue near the laces as the nylon lace loops on the bottom half take on this shade, with more red found on the Zero branding along the pull tab atop the tongue.
Moving to the midfoot, the Puma formstrip is integrated into the upper via black patent leather and red mesh, running back to Scoot Henderson’s S logo embedded into the heel tab. Down below, the foam midsole contains NITRO Foam cushioning for a comfortable ride on the court. In contrast, the black rubber outsole contains a car transmission-inspired traction pattern featuring seven gears.
The Puma Scoot Zeros II Bred will release sometime in 2025 through Puma and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s and GS sizing, the retail price for men’s pairs is $100 and GS at $80.
