Whether it was the console you’ve decided to hang your hat on this generation, or it was simply what was available and you’ve grown to love it. There are ways you can rep your favorite outside of talking them up whenever you get the chance, and the latest of those ways is via a new Puma x PlayStation collection.
PlayStation and Pumaannounced the collaborationon Tuesday, andthe range will be availablefrom midnight EST on April 18. Since Puma is best known for its sneakers, the two headliners in the collection are pairs of PlayStation-branded footwear. A pair of suede sneakers which will cost $100, andsome PlayStation-branded RS-X Puma trainersthat are a lot a little more expensive, priced at $120.
Both pairs of sneakers have been decked out in the same color scheme with similar designs on each - grey, black, and blue with the iconic triangle, square, circle, and cross button symbols featured throughout. The symbols can be found on the tongue of both sneaker types as well as on a tag hanging from them. The $100 option has a light blue sole that fades into grey as it wraps around, while the RS-Xs, which are designed for running, have debossed prints and the symbols make an additional appearance, tiny versions punched into the toe of the shoe.
