Sports brand Puma has launched its own 'Boltmoji' keyboard supporting brand ambassador Usain Bolt. The Boltmoji keyboard will include 41 emojis featuring the Jamaican sprinter.
Some of the emojis include Bolt running, Bolt doing his signature 'To Di World' pose and the Puma logo overlayed with the Jamaican flag. The Boltmoji keyboard features several variations of Bolt's now world famous 'To Di World' pose which he debuted after winning a race during the Beijing Olympics in 2008. There is also an emoji with his World Record race time.
Puma is marketing the keyboard as "the world's fastest emojis," which is fitting since Usain Bolt is considered the fastest man in the world. The keyboard is aimed for fans to cheer on the Olympian and to promote the Puma brand throughout the Olympics.
