Ronnie Fieg x Puma R698 Sakura





It’s hard not to play favorites when you hear that Ronnie Fieg is doing a collaboration because chances are, it’s going to be flat-out fire. This time, he’s bringing life to one of our favorite Puma models, which gives us twice the reason to fall in love.


The New York-based sneaker designer puts a spin on the Puma R698 by way of this really cool Sakura colorway. The fully-perforated upper features a pink suede toe box and white leather mid and heel panel. The sole fades from pink to white, blending the elements and making this a truly stellar release.


If you’re wondering when these will drop, it’s the least of your worries as they are set to release exclusively to United Arrows & Sons in Tokyo. Hopefully at some point, they will end up at Kith, but we’ll just have to wait and see for now.
