Recently Footpatrol teamed up with runner Leon Lewis to support his latest challenge ‘Project Run Jamaica’, a 345KM+ run across the island in 4 days, a feat that has never been done before.
Jamaica has been seen as a country that excels in short distance running, developing some of the greatest track-stars to date. Leon’s mission is to not only bring the community together but, also introduce long distance / ultra distance running to the Island in the hopes of inspiring others.
It only felt right to partner with PUMA, who are Jamaica’s biggest sportswear sponsor to bring this project to life and support Leon.
To kick things off, we hosted a send off community run from the Footpatrol London store with a series of wear test pairs, giveaway merch, food and beverages. Thank you for all that attended, stay tuned to the Footpatrol Run Club page where we will be sharing coverage of Leon’s journey on this Project Run Jamaica challenge.
Here’s a recap of what went down!
Footpatrol brings to you the PUMA Mostro, a classic coming in two monochromatic colour ways with perforated-leather style.
Predating back to 1999, when the Mostro first launched. The Mostro is a bold look with the signature spiked sole and therefore the name reflects that, Mostro meaning ‘monster’ in Italian. The Mostro combines two worlds – running track with the spikes and surfing shoes with the silhouette.
The changes to this shoe come in the form of switching the upper from mesh to perforated leather which helps with breathability. Having being dug out of the Puma Archive we had a chat with Jacob Alexander at Puma HQ to find out more about the Mostro, can be checked out HERE.
The PUMA Mostro will be available on Footpatrol on 13 July at 8am BST online and 10am BST in-store.
The Puma SpeedCat are back! Originally designed in the 1990s for the F1 world, the SpeedCat has recently transitioned from a performance shoe into a fashion statement packed full with a unique legacy.
The SpeedCat launches in two colour ways; black and red as an ode to the fireproof racing footwear worn by Grand Prix Drivers during the period of the ‘80s and ‘90s. The low top personifies motorsports through the streamline silhouette it boosts. With intricate insole details and purposeful use of technical, suede materials and a striking colour palette reflective of the different levels of radiation absorption.
Available Online and in-store.
Last week saw the first of this years Footpatrol Run Club community runs. With the PUMA Fast-R NITRO hitting the shelves at Footpatrol, we teamed up with PUMA for an activation that got the Fast-R on the feet of our running community.
Built for race days, the cutting-edge technology within the two-part midsole features PUMA’s PWRPLATE for ultimate responsiveness. This helps ensure maximum running efficiency and stability to send you on your way to your latest PB.
With the Fast-R’s loaded up into the back of a PUMA branded van, we got them straight on foot before PUMA athlete Jack Rowe took us through a brief warm up before we hit the streets. Not telling anyone where we were going, we ventured on a run through the streets of London taking in the Barbican tunnel before ending at White Collar Factory. Many runners will know this place for its roof top running track and this is where we headed. Taking in the sights of London from above, we completed a few laps before Jack told us his story, what’s to come and how to stay motivated when it comes to running.
Make sure to check out the day below and why not get your PB by shopping the Fast-R online at Footpatrol here!
