Chinese retailer DEAL partners with NSC and PUMA to deliver a collection inspired by the Ancient Tea Horse Road, the historic trade exchange of tea within China. The collection spotlights the classic PUMA Suede and the Puma Sweat-shirt Neymar Jr Creativity Crew.
The PUMA Suede takes on an aged aesthetic with a muted Yellow upper and Black PUMA Formstripe. The upper has a tearaway feature the rips to reveal a graphic underlay with a print inspired by ancient China. This feature is believed to be the first iteration of the PUMA Suede with the tearaway upper finish.
The Puma Sweat-shirt Neymar Jr Creativity Crew also has an aged exterior with Deep Brown Mochila and a speckled midsole. The sneaker has a leather base with a map of the Ancient Tea Horse Road complete with Red and Green accents. A co-branded pull tab completes the design.
The DEAL x NSC x PUMA Collection releases in April 2023. To purchase, visit DEAL locations. For Ignite sneaker news and release dates, follow @NiceKicks on Twitter.
