After a bit of speculation, the departing PUMA CEO Bjørn Gulden will be joining adidas as the new CEO effective January 1, 2023. Gulden announced his departure from PUMA after 13 years last Friday and was immediately placed in rumors that he would become the successor to Kasper Rorsted, the departing adidas CEO.

Before joining PUMA, Gulden previously worked at adidas as SVP of apparel and accessories from 1992 to 1999, making this his second stint with the Three Stripes. Gulden joins at a tumultuous time for adidas, who recently parted ways with Kanye West after a string of attacks on the brand. The loss of the Yeezy Brand will reportedly cost adidas 400 million dollars. Insiders have hope that Gulden can help through the choppy waters as he helped to reestablish PUMA as a major player in the sneaker industry.

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
