In an exciting development for fashion and outdoor enthusiasts, PUMA has once again collaborated with influential artist Skepta to release a new collection that seamlessly integrates the performer’s distinctive aesthetic with PUMA’s celebrated sports heritage. This innovative collection is highlighted by the debut of the PUMA Skope Forever Mid, also known as the Skope Boot, which is heavily influenced by the fashion trends of the early 2000s.
The Skope Forever Mid is expertly crafted to withstand the rigors of outdoor activities, featuring a robust construction of premium leather and steel mesh. The design is complemented by durable rope laces and metal lace-stays, creating a formidable, boot-like appearance. Aesthetically, the shoe includes a chunky, segmented midsole and a lugged rubber outsole, embodying the essence of gorpcore—a style known for its rugged and functional fashion. It’s adorned with sleek chrome branding and quintessential PUMA details, infusing Skepta’s edgy style into every element.
Alongside the footwear, the collaboration extends to a clothing line, meticulously designed to pair with the robust nature of the Skope Boot. The apparel range includes sleek, black Pertex outerwear and accessories inspired by the great outdoors, ensuring readiness for any weather conditions. Each item in the collection mirrors Skepta’s stylistic influence, merging high fashion sensibilities with practical, trail-ready utility.
The entire PUMA x Skepta Skope Forever Mid collection, including the sneakers and the apparel, is scheduled for release in the United Kingdom on November 2, 2024. Enthusiasts of the collaboration can purchase these items exclusively through PUMA’s official website or at select retail locations. Priced at $225, this collection not only encapsulates the spirit of adventure but also pays homage to Skepta’s significant cultural contributions, making it a must-have for both his followers and aficionados of innovative outdoor gear.
Color specifications for the Skepta x PUMA Skope Forever Mid include a striking Dark Chocolate/Silver combination, and the sneakers will be available under the style code 399453-03. This launch is anticipated to attract significant attention, reinforcing the legacy of both Skepta and PUMA in pioneering fashion-forward, functional designs.
