Following the release of the newest trailer for the
Sonic the Hedgehog movie, the PUMA sportswear brand took to Twitter (via
@sonic_hedgehog) to tease a collaboration with SEGA's blue speedster —
more on that here. Now, PUMA has officially announced and released officially branded
Sonic the Hedgehog footwear.
"Get ready to go for the gold. Gaming industry legend Sonic the Hedgehog partners with PUMA in a new collaboration that’s faster than ever. The RS-X³’s progressive silhouette is embellished with golden rings, checked detailing, motion graphics, and other iconic elements from the game. PUMA meets Sonic – who’s faster?"
They don't bear a resemblance to
Sonic the Hedgehog's red shoes but they're unmistakably to do with the video game franchise. As you can see below; Puma x Sonic RS-X³ are black with red and blue detailing. You'll be able to spot Sonic's head sparingly placed on them as well as some golden rings.
You can order them from
PUMA's official website. The pair of shoes come in a variety of sizes and are available for both adults and children. Currently, they cost $120.
Based on the global blockbuster videogame franchise from Sega, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG tells the story of the world’s speediest hedgehog as he embraces his new home on Earth. In this live-action adventure comedy, Sonic and his new best friend Tom (James Marsden) team up to defend the planet from the evil genius Dr. Robotnik (Jim Carrey) and his plans for world domination. The family-friendly film also stars Tika Sumpter and Ben Schwartz as the voice of Sonic.
Sonic the Hedgehog speeds into theatres on February 14th, 2020.
