Tyrese Haliburton Leaves Nike For New Puma Deal

October often marks the end of sneaker contracts to align with the start of the new NBA season. This year has been relatively quiet on the sneaker free agent front, but Indiana Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton just became the first to make a splash. In a surprising move, the gold medalist has signed a deal with Puma. Haliburton has developed a reputation for his love for Nike Kobe Protros and often received special PE (player edition) colorways. The 2-time All-Star slid out of the top 10 in the 2020 draft, so this stage is likely his best time to cash out on a bigger sneaker deal.

 

Haliburton went viral after wearing Prada dress shoes during last week’s Media Day shoot, hinting at his time with the Swoosh being over. The 24-year-old is often meme’d for his attention-grabbing pregame outfits, adding another personality to Puma’s basketball roster that includes LaMelo Ball and Scoot Henderson. Haliburton is expected to play in the Puma All-Pro NITRO this season.

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
