Unveiled is an upcoming release from PUMA utilizing the brand’s fashion forward Slipstream Hi. The shoes are featured in a leopard motif with a release slated for December 2009 at select PUMA retail accounts, including The Good Will Out.

Yup, that was us. PUMA. The game-changing rebel. We pushed our classic high-top basketball silhouettes into the lifestyle arena. But these weren’t your average 80s kicks: these styles featured wild, funky material play. By switching up the material combinations, we created a niche for ourselves among sneaker heads, sport fans, and basketball players alike. The Limited Edition Slipstream stays true to its legendary material plays. This high-top lifestyle shoe features leopard-printed faux pony fur and leather overlays with reptile, stingray, and ostrich emboss prints. The Slipstream moves the old school basketball shoe into yet another arena. One without rules and penalties. And the fanfare is deafening.
