PUMA and designer Salehe Bembury are adding a new colorway to the Hali 1, the basketball shoe named for Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton. Called "Pace," it releases on October 23, 2026, in Sport Yellow and Elektro Blue (style code 314239-01).

Both Nice Kicks and Sneaker Bar Detroit report a $130 retail price. The shoe is sold through PUMA and select retailers. Sneaker Bar Detroit adds that it comes in unisex sizing and will be available in stores and online.

As the name and palette suggest, the pair leans on Pacers colors. Yellow covers nearly the whole shoe, with Pacers blue worked into Haliburton's logos on the tongue, heel and insole, according to Sneaker Bar Detroit. The same report describes Bembury's design as an oval mesh upper with layered panels around it for support, the PUMA Big Cat on the lateral ankle, and a fingerprint-style pattern running along the midsole from toe to heel. That fingerprint motif is one of the more recognizable Bembury touches.

The timing lines up with the start of the NBA season. For New York readers, the options are PUMA's U.S. online store and retailers that carry the release. The reports we drew on do not name specific New York shops or events.

Bembury is also busy outside the PUMA collaboration. His own label, beaspunge, put the Osmosis on sale on October 16, and he has been walking through the line's design details on Instagram. Japanese sneaker fans who follow his work will find the Hali 1 "Pace" a bold, single-color take on the model, arriving at the start of the basketball season.
