The collaboration between Puma and young basketball player LaMelo Ball for the MB.02 design features an electrifying colorway in Puma MB.02 ‘Honeycomb’. The basketball shoe inspired by the player’s Charlotte Hornets team comes dressed in a green, black and gold colour palette. The history of the North Carolina city has hints all throughout the shoe. The base is constructed in a green hue, inspired by the city’s signature colour features shiny overlays on the mudguard and vamp. The ‘Wings’ logo comes dressed in black with golden accents on the interior. Because the gold rush from North Carolina was such a significant event in American history, gold is also used for the upper eyelets and co-branded elements on the heel. The NITRO foam used in the construction of the midsole offers the ultimate comfort while staying lightweight. A rubber semi-translucent outsole completes the design while offering nonslip grip on the court.
