PUMA and Nintendo have been teasing fans about potential collaboration in recent weeks.

The new shoe is a new rendition of the PUMA Wild Riders and comes in the iconic pastel Animal Crossing colorway. Mainly dressed in green, blue and peach accents, the side panel features an almost-translucent graphic of the ever-popular Animal Crossing characters. The heel also sees an embroidered leaf logo on the heel. The peach accents are further emphasized by the suede detailing seen bordering the eyelets and the gum sole.

In addition to the sneakers, a hoodie is set to launch alongside the shoe. Coming in a pastel blue featuring black line art of Animal Crossing villagers on the back alongside the PUMA logo. The PUMA x Animal Crossing collab is due to feature more items in a broader release. These are the first of three shoes in the collection.

In other footwear news, New Balance 327 has just released an “Garnet/Natural Indigo” arrangement.
