Puma and Liya Kebede’s Lemlem have joined forces again to deliver another collection of versatile athletic apparel and shoes infused with a bit of whimsy.
Revealed on Thursday, the capsule is comprised of three sneaker styles as well as sporty jackets and joggers, bras, matching tights and bike shorts, leotards and a training jumpsuit. The offering also features accessories including a classic cap and a backpack, both in a baby pink hue.
In terms of design, the chic sportswear boasts hand-drawn triangles and stripes while blending soft, cozy tones like creamy white, pastel pink, blue and purple with a rich burgundy and a vibrant orange shade dubbed “Cayenne Pepper.”
The three new footwear styles included in the collection are the Puma x Lemlem ForeverRun Nitro running shoes, PWR Nitro Squared training shoes and a mid iteration of the iconic Puma Suede. Each silhouette comes in two colorways to choose from.

Combining an engineered mesh upper with an asymmetrical heel counter, the ForeverRun Nitro offers a sock-like fit with ample stability. The shoe is complete with Nitro foam technology, which offers exceptional responsiveness and a featherlight feel with each step.
As its name suggests, the PWR Nitro Squared is equipped with dual-density Nitro foam tech in the outsole for “explosive energy.” High-rebound EVA cushioning enhances comfort and a 3D frame system provides optimal support and stability during lateral movements.
Finally, Lemlem’s take on Puma’s classic mid-cut Suede model marries playful, retro color blocking with co-branding and a subtle platform.
Retailing from $65 to $160, the Puma x Lemlem collection is available to shop now on Puma.com, lemlem.com, the Puma mobile app and select retail stores worldwide.
