PUMA Reissues Boris Becker OG / PUMA 2014 Fall/Winter Suede Camo Pack

PUMA is bringing back Boris Becker’s classic eponymous sneaker, which he made famous by cruising his way to victory at Wimbledon ’85 at the young age of 17.


Instantly recognizable, the PUMA Suede shoe is one which should be enshrined within the design Hall of Fame. Either that or be a staple in your kicks cupboard. First conceptualized in 1968, the style doesn’t hold any reminiscence to vintage flair, but maintains its modern aesthetic, donning the universal color patterns of woodland camo print with the juxtaposed suede upper. The camo print is broken up by the break of black suede too and features gold embellishments, revitalizing its appeal from an everyday classic to a kick capable of bringing together an entire look. The rubber midsole and grip tread work with the cushioned ankle which allows for two things: durability in walking/running and caters for the spontaneity of a dance break, in case you want to relive the sixties, the time of the shoes’ inception.
