Puma Breakdance Cities Collection Launches in the GCC

Puma Breakdance Cities Collection

Puma Breakdance Cities Collection.

The Suede 50 campaign has another new release as Puma honors its hip-hop heritage with the Suede 50 Breakdance Cities Pack.

The Suede 50 Breakdance Cities pack pays respect to the four most influential breakdancing cities worldwide: New York, Berlin, Paris, and Seoul. Puma says it is “giving props” to these cities that has kept B-boy culture alive, tracing back to the Bronx, its birthplace, across the ocean in Paris where the subculture went onto mainstream media then finding the breaks in Berlin. Eventually, the culture permeated to the Far East, making a major splash in Seoul.

The silhouette broke into the breakdance toolkit in the 1980s as the culture bubbled all over New York.  With its plush suede, cool colorways and thick rubber soles with grip that doesn’t slip on dancefloors, cardboard and concrete, it became a B-boy style staple.

In four distinct colorways, each Suede Classic is embossed with a graphic treatment that celebrates its respective city and each pair has a matching T-shirt.

Suede Classic New York is in a plush orange suede upper and Formstripe with blue lining that pops while keeping it classic atop a thick white sole.
