PUMA MIDDLE EAST INTRODUCES THE MOSTRO SQUAD
PUMA Middle East spotlights a lineup of trailblazing regional talents repping the Mostroverse — a bold, stylized universe inspired by the iconic Mostro sneaker. Mostro is making its modern-day comeback with the region's most forward-thinking creators. From musicians and DJs to photographers and stylists, PUMA's latest campaign was inspired by those who dare to be bold – the defining characteristic of the Mostro shoe. The Mostroverse was curated with a clear creative direction in mind – spotlighting groundbreakers. Shot and directed by Palestinian-Jordanian photographer Omar Sha3 and produced by local creative collective ECHO Agency, the campaign was inspired by the underground, the avant-garde, and those who shape culture rather than follow it – highlighting talents who are unconventional and unapologetically authentic in their art. Conceived as a space where convention is broken and self-expression reigns, the Mostroverse celebrates individuality and the freedom to redefine style on your own terms. Shot across Dubai, the campaign delves into each protagonist's creative universe, captured through a range of abstract and distorted shots that come together with an intimate voiceover of the talent's story. Playing on themes of duality and the beauty found in contradictions, photographer Omar Sha3 perfectly encapsulates the cultural movement that is the Mostroverse with his unique eye. The shoot brings the Mostro DNA to life: for those who defy expectations and thrive on standing out. Each squad member brings their own aesthetic, energy, and perspective, turning everyday movement into something unapologetically original.

A$AP Rocky x PUMA Mostro release date: Premium design, velcro closure & everything we know
A$AP Rocky x PUMA Mostro: Prepare to step up your sneaker game! ASAP Rocky returns with another highly anticipated collaboration, this time with Puma. The rapper and fashion icon collaborated with the German sportswear brand to produce a fresh new style that is already generating talk. In this article, we'll look at the ASAP Rocky x Puma Inhale OG Reflective, including the narrative behind the shoe, its distinct characteristics, and what fans can expect from this exciting new release. Whether you're an avid sneakerhead or simply a follower of ASAP Rocky's style, you'll want to keep reading to discover more about this exciting new release. A$AP Rocky x PUMA Mostro release date Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that the A$AP Rocky x PUMA Mostro will be available on May 30th, 2025. In addition, when the sneakers are released, they will retail for $130 (Approx. 11,180 INR). All about PUMA Mostro The Mostro debuted in 1999 and has always stood out for its jagged, low-profile design. Under Rocky's vision, it becomes even more aggressive. The Harlem-born rapper has always been a tastemaker outside of music. Rocky knows how to impact fashion culture, whether through archival Raf Simons or a handmade Bottega boot. His new interpretation on the Mostro draws on that tradition. It's unapologetically loud and intended to divide opinions. That has always been the Mostro's appeal: startling looks and unusual textures that cater to a specific audience. Now, under Rocky's influence, it appears ready to disrupt again. The Mostro's resurgence is not about nostalgia. It is about altering the existing terrain. In a market saturated with throwback Jordans and collaboration fatigue, PUMA's proposal stands out. The photographs show a black crocodile-textured top, spiky sole, and striking velcro strap that feel like throwbacks to Y2K futurism. It's a chaotic silhouette, but it fits right into Rocky's managed chaos.

A modern velcro closure mechanism substitutes traditional laces, contributing to the streamlined appearance. The robust, spiked midsole provides both style and grip. White PUMA emblems appear on the heel, tongue, and insole. The grey lining and hidden strap provide subtle contrast. Part trail shoe, part fashion statement.
