PUMA, SCUDERIA FERRARI AND JOSHUA VIDES JOIN FORCES TO LAUNCH EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION AHEAD OF THE LAS VEGAS GP

Global sport company PUMA together with Scuderia Ferrari and in collaboration with renowned artist and designer Joshua Vides, present an exclusive collection in honor of the highly anticipated return of Formula 1 to Las Vegas.  This unique collaboration blends artistry and motorsport heritage, paying homage to the first "golden era" of Formula 1 in America with the iconic colors of the 1970s.

As part of this collaboration, PUMA present Joshua Vides for Scuderia Ferrari: Back to Las Vegas collection, this collection offers a dynamic range of apparel, footwear, and accessories designed for both the racetrack and the streets. The iconic Ferrari red, traditionally accompanied by white accents on the car liveries during the 1970s, is now making a triumphant return for the Las Vegas GP.

Perhaps the most captivating aspect of the Joshua Vides for Scuderia Ferrari collection is the attention to detail. Vides has masterfully created a hand-drawn and hand-painted look and feel throughout the products, bringing a genuine artisan touch to the collection. For instance, the crew sweater showcases a remarkable brushing effect with a round number circle at its center, exuding the impression of being painted by hand. This effect can also be observed in the white brushing detail across the race jacket, hoodie, and pants, further enhancing the overall aesthetic.

Among the collection's distinctive elements, the innovative use of Velcro patches stands out, adorning many of the lifestyle products. These patches not only introduce a distinct flair but also offer opportunities for personalization, allowing each piece to be transformed into a unique and one-of-a-kind item.

Key pieces in the collection include a race jacket and pants, a hoodie, a crew sweater, and Las Vegas-themed tees. Footwear enthusiasts will not be disappointed, with a selection that features the PUMA Suede, TUFF, and RS-X sneakers, each reflecting the high-speed energy and style of Scuderia Ferrari.

As the Las Vegas Grand Prix approaches, this exclusive collection offers fans and fashion aficionados the perfect opportunity to celebrate the exhilarating world of motorsport while embracing a unique blend of art and design.

PUMA names A$AP Rocky Creative Director for PUMA x F1 partnership

Sports company PUMA and music artist, creative, and designer A$AP Rocky have officially announced a long-term creative partnership. Rooted in the motorsport business, A$AP Rocky will serve as the Creative Director for the category with a focus on the intersection of the sport and streetwear. Rocky will focus his energy and efforts on PUMA’s new partnership with F1, developing bespoke capsules designed by him, that will influence the brand’s seasonal design directions moving forward.

Earlier this year, PUMA announced a long-term partnership with F1, becoming the exclusive licensee and trackside retailer at all races. With years of history and heritage in the sport, PUMA is eager to explore the impact that streetwear and fashion can play beyond the track. A$AP Rocky’s fashion knowledge, style and cultural expertise will bring a new perspective to the growing F1 audience. 

Rocky’s influence on the brand will be phased, most immediately taking on an incubator-style approach coined “in the lab” to begin creative exploration for where he can take the category. For the remainder of this year, Rocky will impact visuals and video content for the brand. His first campaign, which he has been working behind the scenes as both creative director and producer, explores car culture in America and the impact it has on streetwear and fashion.

Later this year, Rocky will drop an extremely limited PUMA x F1 collection. This apparel and accessories collection will provide a sneak peak into a series of capsule collections in 2024 surrounding high-visibility F1 races.

In 2024, Rocky will focus his creative attention on several Grand Prix races beginning in Miami. These collections have been concepted and designed by him in partnership with the PUMA and F1 teams. He will curate activations at each of the races and serve as the creative director for all of the marketing efforts surrounding these collections.

By 2025, Rocky plans to more fully immerse himself into the holistic product creative designs for all of the PUMA x F1 product spanning from racewear to fanwear to fashion. He will continue to participate in marketing in an ongoing effort to bring disruption to the category via innovative product design and marketing concepts. Rocky, PUMA and F1 together are eager to expand their audience and tap into the connection between streetwear, fashion and the sport itself. 

“Working with brands as iconic as PUMA, and as innovative as F1, has been truly inspiring,” said A$AP Rocky. “When the world sees what were doing, I believe a shift will happen with how brand’s approach taking risks and working with diverse creatives.” 

“We couldn’t be more excited to be working with A$AP Rocky,” said Maria Valdes, PUMA’s Chief Product Officer. “He’s incredibly talented, deeply thoughtful and invested in our brand. He will showcase his vision with elevated F1 race capsules globally which attract new audiences and undoutably disrupt the track. In the future, he will influence the broader PUMA x F1 range and will continue to help push sport and culture forward.” 

“This announcement marks an exciting milestone in our partnership with PUMA,“ said Oliver Boden, Head of Licensing and Gaming at F1. “A$AP Rocky’s creativity and commitment to innovation aligns perfectly with F1’s vision and development in apparel. We look forward to collaborating with him to design and curate the PUMA and F1 range and insert F1 into new cultural and lifestyle spaces.”

PUMA CELEBRATES THE ANNIVERSARY OF TOMMIE SMITH'S ICONIC GESTURE AT THE 1968 OLYMPICS

Global sports company PUMA celebrates 55 years since the iconic Silent Gesture made by Tommie Smith at the 1968 Olympics on October 16th. In honor of this special date, PUMA launches the ‘Icons of Unity’ collection, and an exclusive interview with the brand’s ambassadors: Colin Jackson, former track and field athlete and Olympic silver medalist, Felix Streng, Paralympic gold and silver medalist and World and European Champion, and Tommie Smith, former track and field athlete and Olympic gold medalist.

In 1968, at the Mexico City Olympics, American sprinter Tommie Smith made history with his Silent Gesture. After receiving his gold medal for the 200-meter race, Smith raised a gloved fist in a powerful symbol against racial injustice and discrimination in the United States. Smith's Silent Gesture remains a symbol of athlete activism and an enduring statement against social inequality.

PUMA has always been committed to removing barriers in sports. In the ‘Icons of Unity’ collection, diverse graphic designs were incorporated into timeless styles to convey Tommie Smith's four fundamental messages: Justice, Dignity, Equality, and Peace.

The video interview featuring Colin Jackson, Felix Streng, and Tommie Smith provides some exclusive insights into the enduring importance of justice, equality, dignity and peace within the realm of sports. These discussions touch upon Tommie Smith’s history with PUMA, being an icon and inspiration for others, as well as their future aspirations.

PUMA
PUMA

“If a person is on the right track, the track in front is already laid because all they have to do is follow what they already have in their mind to do. And that peace, justice, equality, and dignity certainly drives a person forward, especially our younger generation, like sitting here”, said Tommie Smith during his interview. “It gives them an idea of: “oh, maybe I am on the right track.” But you had to continue that track. Don't jump off of somebody else's track because the train might be coming your way. Just keep doing what you're doing and think with a positive attitude.”

Watch the full interview on PUMA YouTube.

The Icons of Unity collection is available at puma.com, PUMA selected stores, and participating retailers from October 16th, 2023.
