Puma released multiple collaborative launches as soon as it stepped into 2023. So far, the label has joined hands with the likes of SpongeBob, Dixie D'Amelio, Palomino, and more, all of which garnered a lot of attention.
The label is currently celebrating its 75th anniversary. As part of the celebrations, it has continued to launch playful colorways upon its classic sneaker models. The collaborations that have dropped in the first three months of 2023 have also not disappointed sneakerheads.
To give a shoutout to the German label for its 75th anniversary, Sportskeeda has compiled a list of its 5 best sneaker collabs, launched until March 2023.
Top five Puma sneaker collabs of 2023 that you cannot miss out on
1) Puma x June Ambrose "Keeping Score" Slipstream
The German label collaborated with the American multi-hyphenate artist to launch the second part of the "Keeping Score" collection, which offers apparel, footwear, and accessory choices. The new collection has been launched to celebrate the 50th anniversary of hip-hop, and also to mark Women's History Month (March 1, 2023 - March 31, 2023).
The collection features a Warm White/Verdant Green/White makeover upon the women's-exclusive Slipstream sneaker model. The sneaker has a leather base and comes with nubuck overlays. It retails for $150 and was launched officially on March 16, 2023.

The German sportswear giant collaborated with TikTok star Dixie D'Amelio to launch a 3-piece sneaker collection. The footwear collection offers makeovers upon the RS-X, Defy, and Mayze sneaker models. The official press release introduces the collection as follows:
"Designed in partnership with Dixie D’Amelio, this capsule collection features bespoke versions of RS-X, Defy, and Mayze that can take you from a day with friends to a night out. Silhouettes make a bold statement with authentic cobranding, Dixie’s signature cloud graphic, and “verified” easter eggs for superfans."
The RS-X sneakers come clad in a Light Sand/Taos Taupe color scheme. The second shoe in the collection is Mayze, a personal favorite of Dixie. The sneakers come clad in a "Platinum Grey" color scheme. The same is also seen on the collection's Defy Mid sneaker.
The entire collection was launched on March 8, 2023.
