Popstar Platform Boots

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Rihanna Updated Her FENTY PUMA Series with a Zippered White 'Sneaker Boot'

— September 8, 2016 — Fashion
After having released a furry slip-on sandal and a revitalized colorway for the 'Creepers,' Rihanna and PUMA have created a platform boot that's incredibly statement-worthy.

Covered only in white material, aside from the silver accents near the laces and on the zippers that complement it, the platform boots have a rebellious look that's perfect for edgy feminine consumers. The PUMA logo can be found on the side of the model minimally, with a slight differentiation in fabric making it evident.

The tongue of the sneakers carriers a black synthetic logo as well, however the rest of the platform boots are left free of interruptions. Although the studded style and eye-catching zippers take Rihanna's newest release back to the punk era, the bright all-white colorway gives it a unique futuristic vibe.
