A leading provider of athletic footwear to world-class athletes since shortly after its founding in 1948, PUMA got into the apparel game in the following decades. Once the company began seeing its shoes on the feet of champions — in soccer, as well as track and field and others — PUMA wanted to make sure its athletes were outfitted just right.
Style Right on Track
PUMA began its history on soccer pitches, then the track, and later, on all types of courts and fields. The first maker of a soccer cleat with screw-in studs, the brand earned its first gold medal in 1952 — in the 1,500-meter run in Helsinki.
No matter your game, proper warm-up gear is essential. So as PUMA began outfitting more athletes with lightweight jackets and pants that feature full-zip closures for easy wear and eye-catching colorblocking, fans began to notice.
Some wear PUMA tracksuits and other warm-up wear for training and games of their own, but with sizes for men and women, everyone can agree on the laid-back look these easy fits offer.
A retro-style track jacket gives you the time-tested look of a PUMA classic. Retro-style track pants follow a similar inspiration, also with a poly/cotton blend and bold colorblocking down the legs. So wear them together or separate to complement your PUMA kicks.
PUMA’s athletic clothing style was so popular they easily spilled over into pop culture through the world of hip-hop. One such throwback is the iconic MCS track jacket, which debuted in the late ’80s when it was worn by hip-hop MCs on stage and in videos. The colorblocked chevron styling gives you almost countless color options.
Step Up and Step Out
No matter which retro track apparel you choose, you’ll be finishing what you started from the ground up with your PUMA footwear.
The ever-popular PUMA Suede sneaker gives you a look you can feel with its soft suede upper, a style that will keep you firmly on trend. The PUMA Clyde sneaker series lets you step out in an updated look that recalls pro basketball legend Walt “Clyde” Frazier, one of the first to show swagger on court and off.
And with sizes for women, styles like the PUMA Rise sneaker infuse high-impact sport elements with a kicked-back casual silhouette that will serve as the seeding for any outfit.
