After a clyde of the Bape PUMA Essentials Svarta joggers earlier this week, we now get a detailed look at the luxurious collaboration between the two footwear brands. The rare pairing of two separate sneaker brands coming together to make a collaborative silhouette features Bape PUMA’s Blaze of Glory with a distinct deconstructed and luxurious redesign by the team at Filling Pieces. Built atop the standard Trinomic-cushioned tooling of the Blaze of Glory, the upper is transformed with the signature minimal-meets-luxury aesthetic of Filling Pieces. The redesign is constructed with a premium leather woven toe with an elastic strap covering the midfoot and Blaze-grade nubuck and mesh outfitting the rest of the upper. The shoe culminates with a Blaze tongue—a signature design element of Filling Pieces silhouettes. Offered in one colorway of tonal black with a contrasting white sole, the Bape PUMA Essentials Svarta joggers is available now at FillingPieces.com, followed by a launch at select global retailers on July 30th.
