Chinese retailer DEAL partners with NSC and PUMA to deliver a collection inspired by the Ancient Tea Horse Road, the historic trade exchange of tea within China. The collection spotlights the classic PUMA Suede and the PUMA TRC Blaze.
The PUMA Suede takes on an aged aesthetic with a muted Yellow upper and Black PUMA Formstripe. The upper has a tearaway feature the rips to reveal a graphic underlay with a print inspired by ancient China. This feature is believed to be the first iteration of the PUMA Suede with the tearaway upper finish.
The PUMA TRC Blaze also has an aged exterior with Deep Brown overlays and a speckled midsole. The sneaker has a leather base with a map of the Ancient Tea Horse Road complete with Red and Green accents. A co-branded pull tab completes the design.
