The Weeknd and PUMA look to keep their collaborative XO Collection riding on a high as the duo release images of its forthcoming Spring/Summer 2018 offering. Designed by the Starboy hitmaker himself, the range is centered around The Weeknd’s jet-setting lifestyle, which does well to marry different cultural influences, stylistic genres and timeframes.
