Picking up from last year’s collaboration, Aries and Puma are ready to reunite for another stellar and eye-catching design. Blending Puma’s iconic silhouette and Aries’ street-style flair, this duo created a new look for the brand’s Mostro design. With two designs in this new collaboration, the pair’s version of the Mostro silhouette is nothing less than bold. The new Mostro shoes offer a unique take on a nostalgic sneaker using a blend of textures and materials. Available in two heights, this release combines some of the most iconic details of both brands.

When reviving nostalgic models, Puma has had quite a lot of success in recent seasons. In their newest revival, the brand’s collaboration with Aries sees the Mostro silhouette remixed for a modern era. In the first iteration, Aries and Puma take on the Mostro Craft with two new colorways, gray and brown. Crafted with a suede upper and a woven tongue, this sneaker mixes textured materials for an elevated look. Puma’s Formstrip has been remixed for a unique detail along the side. Along with accented perforations, the sneaker also features an embossed ARIES wordmark.

On the other hand, Aries and Puma also debuted the Mostro mid. Like the Mostro Craft, this shoe features a taller height and a perforated black leather upper. Donning an asymmetric zipper with a beaded knot, the sneaker has plenty of unique details to explore. The sneaker also comes with a brown sole for a stylish color contrast. Both models feature Mostro’s traditional spiked rubber soles, which tie together these modern and retro elements. The Mostro Craft sneaker is now available via the Puma webstore for $150, while the Mostro Mid has yet to receive an official release.
