LaMelo Ball's PUMA MB.04 Keeps Things Colourful

LaMelo Ball has always been a flashy player on-the-court and his Puma MB.04 signature model hasn't been any different.

Having closed out 2024 in a vibrant 'Heem' colour scheme, the Puma Basketball flagship silhouette continues to employ eyebrow-raising, seemingly-random hues and patterns. The latest makeover has no obvious rhyme-or-reason, although the Charlotte Hornets guard might ultimately share its inspiration. Instead, the pair's story focuses on the disparate, asymmetrical style found across right and left shoes.

Ball's go-to slogans (e.g. 1 of 1, Not From Here) reprise their standard roles. Alien tentacle-like detailing across the upper opt for vibrant pink and rich purple, contributing to the colour medley consuming the breathable double-layer mesh base. Underfoot, NITROFOAM™ cushioning and PUMAGRIP traction enjoy tonal finishes that round of their particular shoe's dominant color.

A firm Puma.com launch date for the multi-coloured Puma MB.04 hasn't been disclosed by the brand, but that's likely to change throughout spring. In the meantime, enjoy official photos of LaMelo Ball's shoes ahead.
