The epitome of a classic runner, PUMA’s 1977 Easy Rider returns for 2024. A silhouette that revolutionized the jogging craze of the 1970s, the Easy Rider represented several significant steps forward in running innovation when it was originally released almost a half-century ago.

Reveling in the calmness of everyday moments, the imagery’s locations and styling add unexpected and unique twists.

Digging from the archive, the sneaker embodies the detailed work, exuding the creative prowess of the brand. The upper is structured in mesh, while the suede overlay creates a modish allure.

The sole system is engineered with compression-molded EVA foam (CMEVA) in the midsole, which ensures comfort, while its lugged outsole takes care of the grip. The gum-rubber outsole with studs seamlessly complements the overall footwear. Along with the detailed work of suede and mesh upper, the Puma form strip in frosted ivory at the lateral part exudes a modish appearance.

The branding has been done at the heel tab with the big cat illustration. With the frosted ivory-hued lace-up, the sneaker finished off its look, showcasing minimalistic aesthetics.

Puma, the German sneaker mogul, has garnered an assortment of running shoes, cementing a special place in the sportswear realm. Puma showcased its prowess in the shoe by infusing advanced technologies. The Nitro foam, one of the best innovations of the brand, has been infused into its running shoes.
