Japanese streetwear label Maison Kitsuné has applied its signature Paris-meets-Tokyo aesthetic to a range of PUMA's staple pieces, delivering fans the first-ever Maison Kitsuné x PUMA FW21 collection.
The collection stays true to both brands' minimalist sensibilities while drawing inspiration from Japanese streetwear and sophisticated Parisian looks. The collection consists of a range of delicately balanced pieces, including a waterproof poncho, a trench coat, a reverse bomber jacket, long sleeve t-shirts, and cargo pants.
Most notably, the capsule also presents two new footwear silhouettes. These include reimagined versions of PUMA's Suede Crepe and Mirage Sport, both of which are delivered in neutral-toned colorways. The complete Maison Kitsuné x PUMA FW21 collection is set to be released on November 13, with garments ranging in price from $40 to $415.
