Puma’s foray back into the performance basketball world has seen the German sportswear label team up with various partners from across the globe. Outside of signature athletes like LaMelo Ball and Breanna Stewart, Puma has partnered with organizations like Vencieball for collaborative colorways on inline performance basketball models. Now, as we approach the end of the year approaches, images of a brand-new basketball sneaker from Puma in collaboration with Veniceball have appeared.
The silhouette comes with an Ultraweave engineered mesh upper, a custom graphic print containing shades of red, black, blue, and purple, and stark black accents on select features. For reinforcement, the toebox, partially intersected by the asymmetrical tongue, comes with a large TPU Puma formstrip logo placed below a black leather eyelet containing branding for Veniceball. Other nods to the organization are found via the tongue tag, which features the Veniceball logo, a custom hang tag commemorating its 20th Anniversary, set to take place in 2026, and an iridescent overlay with VBL text on the medial side.
