PUMA's Rugrats Collection Nods to the Playful Series

— May 11, 2021 — Fashion
PUMA's new Rugrats collection is a celebration of the nostalgic television series. This year marks three decades since the show first went on the air on Nickelodeon, so this capsule is also a celebratory range to mark the special milestone. The collection is made up of seven pieces in total, made for adults and children's sizing.

There are bright hues that nod to the series, playful accents, and graphics of the characters. There are familiar faces including Tommy, Chuckie, Angelica, Susie, and the rest of their friends. The collection kicks off the launches with a basketball shoe -- the Court Rider is detailed in emblems that nod to Rugrats with the bright hues and retro design accents.
