Collaborative efforts from atmos Tokyo have remained steady and constant over the last year, working with various footwear brands from across the globe. One collaborator in its rotating cast of partners, Puma, has worked with atmos twice in 2024, once on the Palermo with Baggage Coffee and on an upcoming Persona 3 Reloaded-inspired three-way collaboration. Now, capping off the year with Puma and continuing a series that started in 2021, the duo reunited for the Puma Suede VTG Made in Japan Skajan 3.0.
Inspired by sukajan, a souvenir jacket that became popular after World War II and is often embroidered with oriental motifs, the silhouette comes coated in a nylon and suede mixture. Military green shades take over the suede portions of the tongue, toe, eyestays, and heel, while the midfoot paneling takes on the nylon finish. Above this nylon sits embroidered details on both the lateral and medial sides.
