Name: PUMA MB.05 “World Tour”
Colorway: Sun Struck/Pure Magenta
SKU: 312129-01
MSRP: $125 USD
Release Date: August 29
Where to Buy: PUMA

It’s been nearly five years since LaMelo Ball officially joined the PUMA Hoops roster and the Charlotte Hornets star is gearing up to drop his fifth signature shoe with the brand. Ball introduced the low-top version of his MB.04 just months ago and has now officially unveiled the PUMA MB.05 ahead of its launch later this month.

The MB.05 is centered around Ball’s rockstar status on the court, hence its lead look donning a “World Tour” theme. An early version of this pair was previously spotted in our first look at the silhouette, with it combining fluorescent pink with iridescent accents across the sneaker as barbed wire detailing nods to Ball’s tattoos. Key technical specifications include an engineered mesh upper with a repeating “1” motif, a molded skull at the court-ready outsole, and NITROFOAM cushioning at the midsole.

LaMelo Ball and PUMA Hoops are set to launch the MB.05 in its lead “World Tour” colorway on August 29 via PUMA and select retailers. The official press communications state a price point of $125 USD while the PUMA website currently indicates that it will drop for $130 USD. More colorways of the sneaker are said to be arriving this fall.
