PUMA and Ron Funches Uplift Autism Awareness with the PUMA RS-X “Be Seen”

In honor of Autism Awareness Month, Foot Locker, Champs Sports, and PUMA come together to launch the Ron Funches x PUMA RS-X “Be Seen.” The actor, comedian and writer teams up with PUMA to raise awareness and acceptance within the autism community throughout April for Autism Awareness Month. This special release is one of many initiatives for Foot Locker’s “Be Seen” campaign.
 
Designed to acknowledge, educate, and celebrate those with Autism, the PUMA RS-X “Be Seen” features adaptive lacing for ease of access into the sneaker. The upper has a monochromatic grey exterior and sits atop a two-tone midsole featuring highlighter yellow and purple.

In addition to the exclusive sneaker, Foot Locker and PUMA will also be donating $25,000 to NEXT FOR AUTISM as part of the “Be Seen” campaign.

The “Be Seen” campaign is led by the Foot Locker’s Employee Resource Group, Laced Differently. The focus of Foot Locker’s ERG is to create visibility, raise awareness, and strive to empower people with disabilities, inclusive of those with physical, mental, and learning disabilities. 

The Ron Funches x PUMA RS-X “Be Seen” releases on April 12, 2023. Prices range from $65-$120. The sneaker will be available in men’s, women’s, and kids’ sizes exclusively at Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, Champs Sports, and Champs Sports Canada.
