PUMA RS-X³ Move Pack Uses Vivid Gradient Fades
Striking new styles for this casual sneaker option.
PUMA has been busy on the basketball front with its new Sky Modern model, but it hasn’t forgotten about the Sportstyle division either as the RS-X³ is set to drop in a two-shoe “Move” pack. Using bold gradient fades, the “Move” pack offers “PUMA Black/Etherial Blue” and “Limestone/Gray Violet” colorways, both made of premium materials.
Each pair puts forth a mesh upper, equipped with wavy suede overlays and a signature PUMA Formstripe. RS-X series badges are present on the tongue, and midsoles offer a chunky look to compliment the upper’s stacked style. Although the construction may be identical on both pairs, the hues are vastly divergent.
“PUMA Black/Ethereal Blue” starts with a bright blue shade on the toebox before giving way to stark black on the forefoot and steel gray plus soft khaki on the heel and midsole, respectively. Meanwhile, “Limestone/Gray Violet” uses a color scheme akin to RHUDE‘s earth-toned PUMA collaborations, offering a full medium gray forefoot and light gray midfoot. Black detailing is present around the throat and heel, with the only gradient arriving on the midsole — which fades from gray to khaki.
Both RS-X³ Move colorways are priced at $110 USD, and will release on the PUMA webstore and at retailers like BILLY’s Tokyo come April 4.
