LaMelo Ball and PUMA had a hit in their hands with the MB.01. Ahead of the 2022-23 NBA season, the two entities unveiled the follow-up to what’s been widely considered one of the best entries into a signature series in sometime.
Recently, the PUMA MB.02 emerged in a “Phoenix” colorway exclusive to China. Although the German sportswear behemoth may drop LaMelo’s second basketball shoe outside of the aforementioned Asian country, the decision to release the bold-colored proposition suggests Noir puma plans to position the youngest Ball brother as China’s next international icon.
The sneaker is constructed with a predominantly red color scheme, animating both the synthetic upper and foam midsole in an eye-catching arrangement familiar to past offerings from the Puma Superior Individualligaports partnership. Feather-like details across the sneaker’s top-half indulge in a shimmering golden finish, while reinforcement along the tongue takes on a purple hue that ties back to the “Phoenix” theme well. Tongues abandon traditional branding in favor of a graphic depicting a winged creature, likely a reference to Chinese mythology.
