Breanna Stewart's signature sneaker line with Puma helped revitalize the women's signature sneaker scene. She was the first WNBA player to get her performance basketball model in nearly a decade. Since her Puma Stewie 1 was released in 2022, she has dropped two other signature models, the Stewie 2 and Stewie 3, with another sneaker slated to release in 2025. For what is likely one of the last Stewie 3 colorways, Breanna and Puma coat the sneaker in a purple color palette.
Dubbed Lace 'Em Up, the sneaker comes constructed from a mixture of fused TPU and engineered mesh, with the latter hosting a floral pattern on the base. More floral-themed details are found via the custom Formstrip-esque TPU overlay on the lateral midfoot, contrasting the emerald green Formstrip with its purple finish. More green pops appear on Breanna's logo along the tongue, and the Puma logo is placed back on the heel.
Moving to the medial side, the emerald green metallic Formstrip rests above a palm frond-inspired fused TPU overlay. One final hit of green finds a home on the Breanna Stewart-branded insole. Below, the sneaker contains Puma's NITRO Foam cushioning within the midsole and features a tree branch-inspired traction pattern on the rubber outsole.
The Puma Stewie 3 Lace ‘Em Up W will release on January 31, 2025, through Puma and select retailers online and in-store. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $120.
