For years, Disney and Marvel have teamed up with adidas to produce footwear for their superhero franchises, though that will change in the coming months. Previously, we reported that a Puma Suede themed after Spider-Man was headed our way, with new images of a Black Panther-themed Puma RS-X appearing.

Dressed in a color scheme that echoes the aesthetic of the Black Panther's suit, the Marvel x Puma RS-X Black Panther is a testament to the prowess and elegance of the superhero. The upper boasts an intricate blend of materials, including faux carbon fiber, mesh, suede, and TPU, all in a sleek black palette. Bluish accents adorn various sneaker elements, adding a mystical glow reminiscent of Vibranium, the fictional metal from the Marvel Universe.

The Puma Formstrip is reimagined to mimic the iconic Vibranium necklace, showcasing bluish-purple accents that connect the design to the character's lore. Additionally, Marvel's branding is prominently featured on the tongue, complementing the superhero theme, while the insole presents a playful cartoon depiction of the Black Panther, unmasked. A black and blue foam midsole paired with a matching rubber outsole completes the design, ensuring this sneaker stands out in aesthetics and performance.

The Marvel x Puma RS-X Black Panther will release June 22, 2024, through Puma and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $120. Stay tuned to the Sole Retriever mobile app for the latest updates on this release and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
