It has been a hot minute since we last had news on Skepta’s side-job as a shoe collaborator and after leaving Nike to sign with Puma in 2022, we’ve only seen the UK Rap GOAT appear in a handful of campaigns when Puma was promoting its Velophasis silhouette throughout 2023.

Now, two years on from inking his initial deal, Skepta’s debut project with Puma is finally here.
Officially dubbed the Puma x Skepta Forever, the shoe follows a similar design code to the Skepta’s successful six-shoe run with Nike, reinforcing the artist’s penchant for reflective uppers and respect for pinnacle y2k culture.

Debuting in a near full-black colourway, the oil-slick reflective panelling is offset by perforated mesh and a heavily treaded outsole that extends to the upper portion of the shoe. Chrome’d out detailing can be seen on the outsole and heel, with Puma x Skepta’s new logo applied at the tongue.

With a retail price of $200 USD, the Puma x Skepta Forever is slated to release globally on May 18th.
