Puma proved its no pushover in the ongoing sneaker battle between the sportswear giants with a slew of coveted collaborations and lust-worthy ad campaigns in recent times. From Rihanna’s Fenty x Puma line to enlisting teen sensation Kylie Jenner to front its Puma Fierce ad campaign, Puma shows no signs of holding back, especially with this pair right here that’s perfect for the fashionable girl or guy at heart.

Collaborating hand-in-hand with Tomas Maier’s (Bottega Veneta’s Creative Director) namesake label, the duo has released the Roma 1968 sneakers in all new refreshing update. The sneakers come with Tomas’s signature palm tree print that’s debossed onto a white leather upper, and finished with Puma’s form-strip logo in suede by the sides. Together with the street-favourite gum soles, these Puma x Tomas Maier Roma 1968 sneakers go along perfectly well with Tomas’s chic and sharp RTW line.

With only 2000 pairs available for both men and women worldwide, you will be glad to know that Singapore’s Pedder on Scotts will be carrying pairs for both sexes in limited quantities, retailing at SGD225  a pair. Whoever said finding the perfect his-and-hers sneaker was a near impossible task has got the problem all sorted out with the Puma x Tomas Maier Roma 1968 sneakers. Lazy to head on down to Orchard Road? The sneakers are available at MyTheresa as well, but only for the ladies. As for the men? You know where to head to get your hands on these coveted kicks.
