Mihara x Puma appreciation thread.

[Tokyo Slim]

I just picked these up on clearance at Nordstrom Rack $48 down from $106:

I have recently become a big fan of the Mihara x Pumas. I have three pairs now, the MY-35 in white, the MY-12 in blue, and the MY-1 in black. Some of the designs are really "out there" and I couldn't see myself wearing them, but some of them are pretty darn sweet. Anyone else?

Is it possible to take the little medallion off?

I really like Mihara's own stuff, but these fail for me; just seem overdesigned. McQueen's collab was much better IMHO.

Those look like they were made by Nerf

But if you can pull them off, sweet.

I don't think so. Thats the Mihara "catface" logo. All the shoes have it. Its pretty unobtrusive.

These are the other ones I've got (thanks to Prof. Fabulous):

I like those last two, the first not so much.

I have a pair of the McQueen collab and I really like them. Similar colorway of white/cream as the latest Mihara you picked up, but styling is more classic (only subtly features the standard puma logo).

No love for the gators. Damn.

FWIW, I don't think that picture really does justice to the detailing. They are definitely a weird looking shoe, but i like em.

That's a big +1 from me.

Eh... the McQueen stuff to me is a unique combination of boring and ugly. Some less boring than others, but those are the ugliest ones.

I honestly cannot see myself wearing any of this stuff.

I have not found one McQueen design that I've liked...

The "simple" ones look like Keds. Everything else looks like the above.

I'll stick with my Miharas.
