If you want to add a unique pair of Pumas to your collection, take a look at the Puma Fall 2009 First Round pack. Using the First Round model, it looks like Sunkist and 7 Up sodas are the two inspirations for these shoes due to the color combinations that are used.
Both versions have a prominent Puma logo on the tongue and multicolored laces. Overall, this looks like a fun release for 2009. Look for more details coming out in upcoming months. Via High Snobiety.
Puma recently hooked up with American Rag CIE to create three limited edition satin makeups of the classic First Round Hi. These shoes feature a patent leather heel panel and a white midsole.
Three colorways have been released – red, white and black.
Though I’m normally not a fan of satin sneakers, these aren’t half bad. The white version is a little too shiny for my personal taste, but the black and red editions are pretty decent.
You can get these sneakers now at the American Rag CIE website. Via Sneaker Files.
We always see a lot of sneakers celebrating Chinese New Year every year. The next celebration is set for January 26, 2009 and shoes commemorating the festivities are already beginning to roll out.
This Chinese New Year version of the Puma First Round model features brown colorway that is accented in gold, black and a bit of red. Black patent leather is used on the Puma stripe and heel, while red Chinese lettering is a nice touch.
These shoes are available now at Good Will Out. Look for a lot more Chinese New Year shoes in upcoming months. Via EU Kicks.

Check out this latest release from Puma. These casual kicks are good for those who are looking to add some spice to their wardrobe without sacrificing comfort. While these shoes are definitely unique, they mesh well with the latest trends in fashion.
In these pictures, you will see a pink version and a grey version. The pink one has black as the second primary color, which stands out nicely against the pink. The grey version has white and gold accents, which adds spice to the mix. Both versions have the words “First Round” embossed all over the suede shoe. These sneakers are available now at Flauge.

The Yo! MTV Raps collection continues with two new releases. This time they have included the Suede TLP and the First Round B4.
The Suede TLP features a white and light green colorway that is very fresh for summer. Using perforated leather, green accents and gold print, this shoe is has lots of interesting details that make it a good choice.
The First Round B4 features a white upper with lots of black trim. It also has light green accents. This shoe is a lot more brash than the subdued Suede TLP, but it will still garner some attention. Get these shoes now from Mita. Via Sneaker Files.
Now the ladies can wear their teddy bears on their feet with the new Puma First Round Teddy Bear. This shoe takes several elements from a teddy bear – including the colorful fake fur and the button “eyes.”
I’m not sure what to think of these shoes. I guess, you could wear them as alternative to sheepskin boots, such as Uggs. But my first impression is that they aren’t appealing at all. The Puma First Round Teddy Bear comes in egg yolk yellow/red, as well as blue/green. There are a lot of interesting details, including the star embossed heel and overstitched threads.
