PUMA has spent a big chunk of the last eight months laser-focused on the Speedcat, a low-profile silhouette from 1999. Ahead of summer, however, the German sportswear institution is expanding its horizons to other gems from its archive, tapping South Korea's OPEN YY to reimagine the H-Street.
Launched in 2003, the model shares DNA with the Harambee, an iconic track spike from the turn-of-the-century. Both designs' shapes and performance-oriented elements are identical, but the PUMA H-Street opts for a breathable mesh base that allows for everyday-wear. OPEN YY's execution across three tonal makeovers keeps things simple, but elevated, employing high-quality materials and refined co-branding.
The South Korean imprint's work blends the line between performance and lifestyle, a feat that also applied to the footwear's accompanying apparel range.
The collaborative H-Street features premium nubuck overlays and a detachable fold-over tongue. "White," "Beige," and "Blue" options couple well with OPEN YY's running vests, shorts, and sleeveless top, all built with understated elegance.
Enjoy detailed photos of the collection ahead. All items will launch globally via PUMA.com, OPEN YY, and select retailers on Tuesday, June 10.
