PUMA Unveils Tyrese Haliburton’s First Signature Sneaker

The Hali 1 will make its debut tonight during Game 1 of the NBA Finals.

Almost a year since announcing his partnership with Puma, Salehe Bembury has taken on the task of delivering the rising star’s first signature sneaker with PUMA.

The Hali 1 has Bembury’s design DNA all over it. The wave designs on the midsole feels reminiscent of Bembury’s prior footwear endeavors, be it his works with Crocs or Monclear. The loud colorway, named after Hibiscus, also feels reminiscent to previous efforts.

From a technical standpoint, the Hali 1 features PUMA’s NITRO technology to maximize cushion. The sneakers’ upper is dressedin lightweight mesh and held together by a TPU cage. An oversized PUMA Big Cat logo sits along the ankle to round out the upper.

The Hali 1 could not be arriving at a better time. Throughout this polarizing 2025 NBA Playoffs run Tyrese Haliburton has cemented his star status within the NBA. He is currently averaging what is essentially a Double-Double with 18.8 points, 9.8 assists, and 5.7 rebounds per game. His most iconic moment, of course, being the shot to send Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Knicks into overtime. Pacers fans are hopeful Haliburton will maintain his performances and lead them to the first NBA Championship in Franchise history.

Though the Hali 1 will make it’s on-court debut tonight, the release to the public is currently slated for September. Expect them to land at puma.com and PUMA Hoops retail partners.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
