The GHOSTBUSTERS x PUMA Suede XL “Stay Puff” is dropping, and it’s bringing some serious paranormal heat to the streets.

The PUMA Suede, which has been a classic since its introduction in 1968, has undergone numerous transformations, yet this ghostly version is a standout — or should we say, a marshmallow standout. Initially designed as a basketball warm-up sneaker, the Suede quickly earned its status as a cultural icon, widely appreciated by hip-hop artists and b-boys.

This time around, it receives a hauntingly fun makeover inspired by the beloved giant marshmallow man. The “Stay Puft” variant features a pristine white upper that nods to the towering marshmallow character. By selecting the Suede XL silhouette, PUMA has given this collaboration a robust presence that echoes its larger-than-life muse.

Fans of Ghostbusters will appreciate the thoughtful details. The lateral stripe is rendered in a gentle baby blue, mirroring Mr. Stay Puft’s charming sailor hat. The tongue tab and insole flaunt the iconic Ghostbusters logo, while the outsole features a cheerful depiction of the marshmallow man.

This collaboration isn’t solely about aesthetics. The Suede XL upholds the premium quality that has made it a favorite among fans. With a reinforced toe box for added durability and a padded collar for comfort, it’s ready for anything from ghost-hunting adventures to quick runs to the local shop.

The GHOSTBUSTER x PUMA Suede XL “Stay Puff” will launch on October 1, 2024 via PUMA.com and select retailers for $95.

    Official Release Date for the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen”

    The Boston Celtics’ season is unfolding just as they had envisioned, with only one loss to report and a striking 30 points per game average from their star player, Jayson Tatum.

    After a more eventful off-season than what championship teams typically endure, Tatum and his Boston teammates have skillfully tuned out distractions, staying focused on their goal of repeating their success early in the season. In line with this theme, the upcoming #0 Jordan Tatum 3 is about to launch a “Zen” colorway that embodies this same sense of tranquility.

    The motif of serenity has been a consistent element in Jayson Tatum’s sneaker line, especially highlighted by the “Vortex” version of the Tatum 2, which explicitly connects to this theme: our previous coverage noted that the design reflects Tatum’s calm demeanor, reminiscent of the peacefulness found in a vortex above water.

    While this new model opts for a more subdued color palette, its execution remains true to that original concept; the graceful cut-outs in the upper design resemble calm waters, serving as a guiding inspiration throughout Tatum’s signature collection.

    As mentioned earlier, the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen” is set to launch on November 14th via Nike.com, available in sizes for the whole family. The adult versions will be priced at $125.

    For a closer look at this appealing colorway, check out the official images below, and make sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers page for updates.

    Jason Kelce’s Field Goal Attempt In Timberlands Will End In A $100,000 Donation

    This Saturday, November 2nd, Jason Kelce will take on a field goal challenge while wearing Wheat Timbs during the ESPN College GameDay broadcast of the highly anticipated Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup. The idea for this challenge originated when college student Daniel Villasenor successfully kicked a field goal in Vans checkerboard slip-ons, winning an impressive $100,000 earlier in October.

    Initially discussed on the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast with special guest Pat McAfee, this lighthearted challenge quickly evolved into a real event. The NFL legend, Jason Kelce, is set to attempt scoring three points while donning the famous Wheat Timberlands.

    In an exciting twist, VF Corp — the parent company of both Vans and Timberland — has stepped in with a generous $100,000 commitment to the charity Soles4Souls, aimed at supporting hurricane relief efforts. Fortunately for Jason, VF Corp has assured that the funds will be donated regardless of whether his kick is successful or not.

    Make sure to tune in to ESPN College GameDay on November 2nd, 2024, to witness this unique field goal attempt for yourself!
