LaMelo Ball's Puma LaFrancé "Assist" Arrives in Time for Halloween

The PUMA MB.04 might be stealing the spotlight as LaMelo Ball's latest performance model this October. Still, his lifestyle lineup isn't taking a backseat, especially with the upcoming Halloween-themed release of the PUMA LaFrance "Assist" in a Lime Green colorway.

Scheduled for an October 18th drop, this new edition's vibrant and eye-catching design channels the spooky spirit of the season.

This iteration of the LaFrance sneaker adopts a festive makeover with a light green upper contrasted by a dark midsole, all wrapped in glossy patent leather overlays. While some might draw parallels to the iconic Nike Kobe 6 “Grinch,” the LaFrance "Assist" stands on its own with its unique design features. This model differentiates itself with design tweaks like a TPU heel pull tab for ease of wear, boldly embossed midsole branding, and the standout “PUMA LaFrance” text across the contrast outsoles. A notable change for this release is the switch from the usual canvas to mesh tongue and oval panels, enhancing the sneaker’s textural appeal.

Priced at $110, the PUMA LaFrance “Assist” is ready to make a splash this Halloween at retailers like Foot Locker.
