On September 13th, PUMA presented FUTROGRADE, an immersive runway show during New York Fashion Week that showcased the past, present and future of the brand. PUMA has launched a parallel metaverse fashion show experience, called Black Station, that included exclusive NFTs with limited edition redeemable physical sneakers.
COLLABORATIONS INCLUDED
• AC Milan: Our collaboration with AC Milan reaches back to their heritage roots to celebrate Paninari subculture. The drop is inspired by groups of young people frequented the Paninari Café in the Milanese metropolitan area, adopting favored brands and establishing their movement. Collection pieces celebrate this subversive group of streetwear enthusiasts, featuring premium woven labels, storytelling patches, and embroidered detailing.
• Dapper Dan: Taking inspiration from the idea of a pre-game runway, PUMA x Dapper Dan combines PUMA’s sport heritage with Dapper Dan’s exquisite workmanship to create a luxury upcycled aesthetic, complemented with knitted materials, tailored styles, and elevated colors.
• June Ambrose: The first co-branded collection by June Ambrose and PUMA, 'Keeping Score' explores the idea of reflection - how we as a community of women keep score for ourselves and one another.
• Koche: PUMA's first-ever collaboration with the Paris-based fashion label Koché, the collection celebrates women at the intersection of fashion, fitness, and femininity with silhouettes that blur the lines between performance and lifestyle.

• Palomo: A first-ever collaboration between PUMA and PALOMO SPAIN, the collection takes a genderless approach to add an avant-garde touch to PUMA silhouettes, featuring a ‘70s-inspired color palette and graphic design details.
