When PUMA does something, they do it big, and they do it well. The PUMA 917 Mid Manga incorporate the silhouette of the classic PUMA sneaker, but with incredible Japanese touches that underscore the luxury appeal of these kicks.
The sneakers feature traditional manga touches like the reflective bubble on the top cap, dotted shadow and sketchy shading. Also, the PUMA 917 Mid Manga are the physical representation of what a manga would draw, and you can wear them too!
