RJ Barrett’s PUMA Fusion Nitro PE Pays Homage to His History

New York Knicks star RJ Barrett is soaring into stardom. The 4th year guard just recently signed a long-term extension with the team and is dropping limited edition kicks as a part of the PUMA Hoops squad.

Barrett gets personal on his Fusion Nitro colorway with details nodding to his home and history. The shoe’s unique colorway features one red sneaker as an ode to the Canadian flag, and the other features blue as an homage to the Duke Blue Devils, where RJ spent his college career.

Even the tongue is packed with details, the front bearing RJ’s #9 and a maple leaf, while the backside reads “Maple Mamba” in honor of his nickname. The sockliner features Barrett’s personal “made different” mantra as the completing touch.

The PUMA Fusion Nitro RJ is available exclusively at the PUMA NYC flagship and retails for $130.

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
