Matt Varga Updated October 28th, 2026: PUMA has now officially announced the Stranger Things x Lamelo Ball collection. On top of the MB.06, LaFrance, and LaFrance RNR, the PUMA MB.06 adds a kids-exclusive teal “Snowshark” colorway, and a range of co-branded apparel with imagery from the show is also arriving. Scroll further for a closer look at the full capsule and “Where to Buy” sections, where you can seek out direct links for drop day.
The Halloween rollout cycle is here in full force. Yes, we may have spilled plenty of ink on the Nike Halloween 2026 slate within that, but don’t count out the other major players in making an impression this October. The adidas Anthony Edwards 3 “Omen” and some product out of New Balance show real effort to get in on the holiday heat cycle; PUMA and LaMelo Ball are now ensuring they’re not left off the invite list, linking up with Stranger Things on the PUMA MB.06, LaFrance, and LaFrance RNR.
PUMA’s Licensing division has always been working overtime when it comes to LaMelo Ball shoes, stretching back to the MB.01 “Rick and Morty” or the MB.04 “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.” However, this year, the Big Cat has stepped up its effort, beginning with a comprehensive Fast & Furious collaboration for All-Star Weekend and now expanding for spooky season.
While it may be unexpected at first glance, Melo already pledged his love for the now-concluded series around Christmas 2025, telling a reporter his festive plans included heavy relaxation and a binge of the final season. The eerie textures of the Upside Down work synergistically with the inherently expressive world of Ball’s line. All of them wear a co-branded stamp with the Big Cat in the mouth of the Demogorgon; the PUMA MB.06 uses sharp-toothed edges, and the LaFrance RNR largely mirrors its dull purple and red colorway. The LaFrance proper breaks into a fiery red and royal blue arrangement with comic-like stippling in veins running across its body.
The LaMelo Ball x Stranger Things x PUMA MB.06, LaFrance, and LaFrance RNR are confirmed for a November 6th release date. Catch official product images included below.
