PUMA Suede Blacklight: Elephant, Snake & Tiger


I don't know how long I've been wanting Puma to make something more of its simple sneaker design. No, I don't mean anything extravagant or outlandish, but just to make it classier, more high-class... something that stands out yet remains subtle... to the average eye, seeing the same thing, but something is a lil different about it which you can't pin point right away. And Puma's given me what I've been looking for in it's Blacklight.


For me, this is Puma's response to Nike's SB line, and I really wish Puma would make these designs more available. All 3 pairs have a full black suede upper. The theme of each shoe continues to the inner lining where a stripe design is seen along with a graphic of an Elephant, a Snake, or a Tiger. However, the highlight of the sneaker is that the inner lining reacts to black light giving off a fluorescent color! (hence, Puma Suede "Blacklight")




The color combos for these kicks are definitely sick! The black suede really brings out the vibrant colors of each of the themed shoes. And with the reaction to black light, thats gotta be insane. If they were available locally, I'd definitely cop the Snakes and the Elephants. But for now, they're only available @ Mita, Japan.


Would you rock these too? What do you guys think? Comment!
