PUMA x Size? ‘Wilderness Pack’ Drop 2

 

Following lasts months ‘Sahara’ and ‘Inner City’ releases from the Wilderness Pack’s first drop, PUMA and Size? return to give two more silhouettes a re-work inspired by the harsh terrain of the jungle and the mountains.

The popular Blaze of Glory model takes cues from the Amazonian Jungle as it pays homage to the dense, overgrown forestation and its inhabitants. The forest green mesh, suede and rubbery leather mix upper sits on top of a speckled midsole and is finished with bright pink heel wrap detailing designed to warn off predators. With the forests humidity in mind, the shoe provides breathability, as well as sheltering the foot from downpours.

The Disc-Blaze is designed for endurance and durability, built to tackle harsh mountainous conditions. Again the speckled midsole is applied, whilst the upper is made from a heavy wax canvas, and includes an ice green cage unit and brown outer sole.

Drop 2 of the Wilderness Pack will be available at size? from August the 2nd and will be available worldwide from September the 6th.
