While some inspired sneakers look very similar to the original, the Puma 917 has inspired references from the Chuck Taylor but takes on a brand new personality. The PUMA 917 also takes design references from the original Puma Speed Cat Mid and Puma Future Cat Mid.

Another Vans collab with Iron Maiden. What started as a small collaboration a couple of years ago has become a franchise that has brought the brand sneakers from just Cali. The graphics here are used for the cover of the album “Powerslave” in 1984 with Eddy, the mascot of the banda, Egyptian statue.

These models are the usual, the Cesario Lo and the Rocco. It is surprising that the materials in premium finished reptile. The skins have been dyed in the colors of spring and more suggestive. Big ups to Creative Recreation for keeping people on their toes… literally.

The concept is awesome, the colorways goes perfect. The mis- coloration and the blue rubber bands for the claws make the shoe as a creative art one of a kind. Definitely does not lack originality. Big ups to the designer, and the release date is unknown at the moment but be on the look out.
