It was revealed earlier this year that Puma was in the works creating their very own skate flavored sneaker, the Scott Bourne Skate Suede. New pictures have just surfaced with a look into the newest retro inspired release from a large company. Using the multi-subculture relevant Suede model as the backdrop, the usual features are visible such as a thicker tongue. Aesthetic features include a Flying Hourglass, a symbol based on Bourne’s own personal "memento mori" motto which translates into "remember you must die". This represents the notion that you need chase time and ensure you spend each moment wisely. Also seen on the tongue is a "Follow No One" label. Three different colorways were designed, Regal Red, Steel Grey and Black, fat laces included. No word yet on availability.
