Puma Sky High Plus

Wednesday, Mar 30, 2011

Redesigns of classics in the sneaker world have been mocked, criticized, and sometimes, adorned. Yet, it's hard to tell what causes each response. In the case of the Puma Sky High Plus, a redesign of the classic Puma basketball sneaker from the 80s, I think it's safe to say they will be accepted. Available in several fresh tonal colorways, they retain many of the same design elements of their predecessor, the Puma Sky High II, but also some modifications. The Puma Sky High Plus sports an ultra high tongue, large adjustable hook-and-loop strap, and a vulcanized sole. These design changes transform a retro basketball sneaker into a contemporary lifestyle sneaker that's versatile and fashionable. So, what color are you gonna cop?
