Available Now // PUMA Slipstream Mid “Mutation Beast”
1987’s PUMA Slipstream is by far one of the brand’s — if not the entire category of 80’s hoop shoes — most underrated. Aiming to garner some of the attention paid to fellow shoes of the era like the Forum and the Dunk, the Big Cat has looked to cash in on the on-trend aesthetics of deconstruction, vintage-look, and 80s’era all at once with this new PUMA Slipstream Mid “Mutatiion Beast”
The hardwood-come-streetwear sneaker has always been privy to some pretty wild schemes, with this savagely-titled no exception. Here, it relies upon deconstructed layering and a unique material mix that unites contemporary elements with a heritage sensitivity. Warming tonal hues of Ivory Glow and Nimbus Cloud are met with bold, yet softened Intense Blue at the midfoot and strap, whilst there are subtle shifts to pink found through the pair’s minor accents, too.
Take a closer look below, and you can find the PUMA Slipstream Mid “Mutation Beast” available now from select retailers and PUMA.com for $130.
