A few weeks back we gave you a first look at Trapstar London's first foray into our wonderful world of sneakers. For their groundbreaking, UK's finest tapped into Puma's legendary catalogue and chose the classic Puma Disc as they shoe they would collaborate on to dip their foot into our community.
The super premium collab uses butter soft lux leather on the perforated toe box and the upper's underlay while the toe, tongue and upper overlay employs the finest of suedes, giving it not only a perfect look out of the box but more character as you wear it (trust us on this one, we've seen it person). The Disc system goes from a translucent smoky black to a crystal clear dial, giving the shoe even more appeal while the high-risk red tongue pull brings the Trapstar branding to the forefront. The shoe sits on a black and white speckled midsole which breaks up the menacing all black motif while an icy red outsole lets us see the innards of the Trinomic support system.
The insole comes in red with dual Trapstar and Puma branding in black. The neoprene inner bootie makes sure to give a lock down fit, making this a casual shoe that can take the pounding of the pavement. Last but not least we see the heel panel covered in black leather with Trapstar branding. The small details are endless as we see the signature "Irongates" font as well as the perforations seemingly being made by the end points of sharp gate bars.
Things don't end there as we also have an amazing Goalkeeper soccer jersey that incorporates Puma's technical know how with Trapstar's own Football/Soccer legacy from their own pieces. Taking an actual Puma Performance piece with Dry-Cell tech, the boys from London took things up a stylish notch by giving it their signature print with a reflective touch. A super soft engineered jaquard makes it incredibly light. Just like the shoe, the jersey comes chock full of details (just peep the dope moto-skull patch on the front), making it an essential piece that ties back perfectly with the sneaker.
The Trapstar London X Puma Collection is set to release on December 5th exclusively at Trapstar stores and will be followed by a global release on December 19th. Stay tuned to SneakerShouts for more updates on this incredible collab as well as the global release locations.
