Rise Puma Blaze Of Glory Lost Ones 01

A couple of months back Long Island-based sneaker boutique RISE teamed up with Puma for a very special “New York Is For Lovers” themed Puma Blaze of Glory. The sneaker utilized a premium red leather upper and told the story of co-founder of RISE, Chase Peso, coming to terms with his own father’s battle with HIV/AIDS. Together, RISE and Puma raised $15,000 towards HIV/AIDS research with the first release and now they’re back with a Part 2 of their collaboration. The Puma Blaze of Glory “Lost Ones” honors those who lost their lives to HIV/AIDS, with over 1.5 million dying from the
disease each year. The tribute comes in the form of a very limited offering in a respectful black mesh and leather combination, and inversion of the first release with just the right amount of red speckle detailing on the midsole. The pair will be a limited offering, arriving this Saturday, February 6th at Rise45.com for $145 USD. Check out a detailed look below and let us know what you think of the latest collaborative effort in the comments section.
