With the rise of eSports, fashion and gaming are coming together like never before, especially as Puma recently shared its Active Gaming Footwear. The breathable performance design boasts a sock-like fit thanks to its 3D knit construction and offers enhanced support, comfort and grip. Although not designed for athletic performance, the footwear style boasts a split bottom component for flexibility and a grippable rubber sole.
The footwear design has the potential to add value to games where players are standing up or moving around in a physical space, especially when virtual and augmented reality is involved.
As it stands, the gamer-targeted footwear design from Puma is exclusively available in Australian and UK markets.
