The Sonic the Hedghehog franchise and PUMA have teamed up once more for a Doctor Eggman (main villain) take on the RS-X³, appearing in “PUMA Black/High-Risk Red.”

PUMA’s RS-X³ is crafted from a textured mesh textile that is overlayed with leather panels at the toe box, heel, lower side-panel and for the eyestay, appearing in a faded black-to-red colorway. The Formstripe has been given a soft red hue and is detailed with black and soft green zigzag stitching, the latter color featuring on the tongue, sole unit and outsole.

At the rear of you’ll find Sonic the Hedgehog’s head embossed into the textile heel tab, as well as set of three golden rings on each shoe. Further gaming inspiration comes in the form of a score tally on the rear-quarter heel, while a shimmering gold chevron at the rear rounds off this unique pair.

Take a look at the Sonic x PUMA RS-X³ in “PUMA Black/High-Risk Red” in the gallery above, and pick up a pair for yourself at PUMA stores and online for $120 USD now.
