PUMA AND ARIES DEBUT FIRST EVER COLLABORATION

Today, PUMA announces its first ever collaboration with London-based luxury streetwear imprint Aries, after debuting a tease of the collection at PUMA’s New York Fashion Week show in February 2024.

Blending PUMA’s heritage with Aries’ luxe-streetwear aesthetic and signature graphics, the partnership riffs on racing and kitschy aesthetics, mixing modern and nostalgic references into one breakneck vision. The genderless collection is highlighted by statement graphics as well as experimental knitwear and double nylon pieces, paired with a crafted selection of accessories and footwear, including an Aries take on the iconic PUMA Mostro. 

The collaboration capsule includes a moto-mesh long sleeve tee featuring a selection of Aries custom graphics, as well as the knitted cardigan printed with an original digital print. A lace-knit tight tee incorporates cycling inspiration and is made from an original knitted jacquard, while the garment-washed oversized tee features a fierce “PUMA” graphic with an airbrushed motif playing on Aries’ branding of ancient mythology. The water-repellent nylon lightweight jacket and lightweight pants once again make use of a digital print featuring a “PUMA” skeletal x-ray graphic. Playing on kitsch codes, accessories like the PUMA x Aries Cap and very Mini Grip Bag evoke ‘80s and ‘90s mall aesthetics.

For the footwear, PUMA and Aries turn their attention to the incomparable Mostro and iconic Suede. The Mostro is the hero of the collaboration and is reworked with a mixture of mesh, neoprene, and suede on the upper. Aries’ take on the Mostro also features an elastic closure with an adjustable toggle at the rear. The Suede comes with a rubberized mudguard, leather toe cap, and special graphics on the heel and tongue. 

PUMA and Aries call on acclaimed New York photographer Mark Luckasavage who effortlessly captures the PUMA x Aries collection through a spectral, filtered lens. Portraits and candid images comprise the campaign, which imparts the impression of a tainted daydream to reflect the ethos of the collaboration.

PUMA x Aries launches Thursday 5th September 2024 at ariesarise.com and the Aries Flagship store, 31 Great Pulteney Street, London, W1F 9NN, as well as PUMA retailers including END. Clothing, Slam Jam, and KITH.

Scuderia Ferrari
Herzogenaurach, 27th August 2024
PUMA Celebrates the Strength and Innovation of Carbon Fibre with Scuderia Ferrari HP at the Italian Grand Prix

Global sports company PUMA in collaboration with Scuderia Ferrari HP is proud to celebrate the remarkable material that has revolutionized the world of racing: carbon fibre. This Grand Prix weekend at Monza will not only be a showcase of speed and competition but also a tribute to the material that has significantly enhanced safety and performance in Formula 1.

Since its debut in the USA in 1958, carbon fibre has revolutionized Formula 1. Scuderia Ferrari HP first used it in 1982 to strengthen their car's chassis, and by 1983, they introduced the first car with a full carbon fibre structure, enhancing safety and durability. Over the years, carbon fibre became essential in F1, used for everything from custom-fit pedals to steering components. By 2014, even gearboxes were made entirely of carbon fibre, highlighting its importance in improving speed and aerodynamics.

At this year's Italian Grand Prix, Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz will wear exclusive race suits, t-shirts, caps, and Speedcat Pro race boots, all adorned with a carbon-fibreinspired design that fuses the rich heritage of racing with a sleek, contemporary aesthetic.These feature an all-black base, highlighted by striking accents of yellow—a color deeply entrenched in Scuderia Ferrari HP’s heritage. Yellow also holds significance as the emblematic color of Modena, the city of Enzo Ferrari, selected as the backdrop for the iconic black Prancing Horse.

PUMA is excited to honour the past, present, and future of Formula 1’s technological advancements with Scuderia Ferrari HP. Together, we celebrate the material that has not only safeguarded our drivers but also propelled the sport to new heights.

The Scuderia Ferrari Monza Special Edition Awaits You! Available now in select PUMA and Ferrari stores, as well as online at puma.com and store.ferrari.com. Don't miss thechance to own a piece of racing excellence.
