LaMelo Ball Outfits the PUMA MB.01 in a Colorful "Be You" Look

Alongside his notable NBA success, LaMelo Ball has thrived in his partnership with PUMA as well. Unveiling his first signature sneaker, the MB.01, with the brand late last year, Ball has since offered a variety of colorways in combination with a low-top version of the shoe. Now, following up on several MB.01 Lo releases, the original shape makes its return with a look that combines features from previous colorways.

Carrying the “Be You” name, this colorway taps into Ball’s brief history with PUMA as it serves as a mash-up of previously used design elements. The left and right shoes carry unique looks while their construction matches the original MB.01 specifications, including a specially engineered knit upper. Additional PUMA technology such as NITRO foam cushioning ensures that this pair is geared for more than just catching eyes. The duo’s branding elements can be found throughout this multicolored pair while older takes such as the “Galaxy” colorway are referenced with portions of the shoe copied from each original look.

Release for LaMelo Ball’s PUMA MB.01 “Be You” takes place July 29 via PUMA, Foot Locker and Champs Sports at a price of $125 USD.

Elsewhere in the world of footwear, Reebok is offering a grey and yellow colorway of the Club C 85.
