What happens when you take a shoe named for its most commonly used material, then introduce it to something new? In the case of the Puma Classic Suede ‘Wool’ Pack, it works extremely well, perhaps because the model’s namesake stuff and these particular renditions offer a lovely blend of fuzzy textures. All three of these fall 2013 colorways are done in dark colors, even the red edition that’s a few shades darker than brick. Look for these in September and check out more shots below in the meantime.
