Ahead of the highly-anticipated release of DC Comics’ The Flash, BAIT has linked with PUMA for a new shoe commemorating the film and its titular character.
For the sneaker, BAIT delivered a new take on PUMZ’s classic RS-X, featuring a crimson colorway with bright yellow details. The toe and sole of the shoe incorporate black into the design in the form of a pebbled and streak pattern, a nod to the sheer speed of Barry Allen.
Mesh panels contrast the black with solid swatches of red, tied together with matching crimson laces. The Flash fans will truly be able to wear their love for the film thanks to a yellow lightning bolt splashed across the side of the RS-X. A second, smaller bolt is printed on the tongue on the sneaker, and yellow features in the stitching, interior and back panel.
The Flash RS-X will hit stores on June 14, just two days before the movie’s premiere. Priced at $120 USD, it’ll be available at Foot Locker, Champs Sports, the PUMA NYC Flagship and PUMA’s online shop.
