A$AP Rocky, the Harlem-born rapper, has a new collaboration with Puma: the Suede '94, available from November 12 at Puma stores and online.

The shoe takes its cues from a 1994-era Suede silhouette, and the detailing is where the collaboration shows. The tongue is padded and finished with a raw edge, left cut rather than sewn under. A retro woven label sits on the shoe.

The upper is distressed leather, so a new pair looks as if it has already been worn in. The lace keeper is gold. The design also carries a few nods to New York City.

The custom shoebox was made for this release, so the packaging is part of the collaboration too.

Puma's US site lists free shipping on orders of $75 or more, or $50 for members. In New York, Puma products are sold at the brand's stores. For anyone who likes 1990s street style reworked for today, this is a pair worth looking at.
