LaMelo Ball's first signature Puma sneaker is nearly here.
Puma officially unveiled the Charlotte Hornet star's new sneaker - the MB.01 - on Tuesday ahead of a global release in December. The shoe is Puma Hoops' first signature sneaker since the company's basketball relaunch in 2018.
"I am excited to officially launch my first signature basketball shoe with Puma," Ball said in a statement. "It's crazy to see my vision come to life with the MB.01. The design process was very collaborative, incorporating my style and unique details like the rocket flames. I can't wait to wear them on court this season."
Ball co-designed the shoe, which features the phrases "1 of 1" and "Not from here" on the tongue and "rare" on the outsole. Puma will release additional colorways throughout the remainder of 2021 and 2022.
