HELLO KITTY AND FRIENDS JOIN PUMA FOR A WATERCOLOURED, ‘90S-INSPIRED COLLABORATION

PUMA and Sanrio strike up an exciting new friendship, creating a collection that channels the ‘90s, taking inspiration from Los Angeles and vibrant West Coast sunsets.

Including designs for both kids and adults, the pink-on-pink range comprises watercolour visuals mixed with playful doodle illustrations. Following Hello Kitty as she rollerskates down the California coast, the beloved illustrated character is also joined by her friends My Melody and Kuromi.

The adult’s collection features relaxed essentials elevated with unique treatments like puff prints and holographic details, as well as patterns featuring Hello Kitty. Hoodies and T-Shirts add a casual element to the collaboration, with special graphics that blend PUMA logos with playful bows and Hello Kitty imagery. Activewear is included in the form of the Ribbed Tank Top and Ribbed Flared Leggings, in addition to the One Piece, a sporty collection highlight adorned with a tonal all-over Hello Kitty print.

The collection’s pastel-hued footwear highlights Hello Kitty’s friend My Melody, and her frenemy Kuromi. The PUMA x Hello Kitty and Friends Palermo draws inspiration from My Melody, featuring watercolour panels, an overdyed midsole, and a lace shroud. Kuromi’s influence appears in the PUMA Easy Rider, which incorporates watercolour accents and playful doodle designs, while the PUMA Suede XL sneakers provide options for bold pink or understated black styles.

PUMA x Hello Kitty and Friends available from 6 March 2025, from PUMA.com, PUMA retail stores and selected styles will be available at Shesha and Sportscene.
