Puma x Mihara Yasuhiro S/S '07 Collections

I almost stained my pants when I first saw this post on Slam. Then again on High Snob. Then, yet again, on Hypebeast. The pics just got bigger and better and I was drooling uncontrollably. Puma has been working with Japanese fashion designer Mihara Yasuhiro for quite some time now and for the upcoming (North Hemi) Spring/Summer, they have released two different collections that draw from different elements making each unique.

The first collection is the ROCK ON S/S '07 Collection, inspired by the Heavy Metal and features the MY-25 Metallic Gold High Top Boots and the MY-24 Metal Trainer. The second collection is called OOPARTS which stand for Out of Place Artefacts, with the concept coming from a story about a well-known archeologist, Dr Mihaluk, who discovered what looked like a modern day sneaker embedded in ancient rock . Freaky stuff huh? Anyways, the OOPARTS Collection consists of the MY-1 Peace, MY-9 Love, MY-25, and a Carry All bag.

So, after having read all this stuff about these two collections and looked at all the pics, it came down to the slow and arduous tasks of picking a few of my favourite images to post here. As you might realise, this exercise was a complete failure. I just put 'em all up cos they're all so deliciously HOTT.

My pants = stained.

Mihara Yasuhiro is officially my new hero.

Check out SlamXHype for a nice, detailed post about these collections. Check out Hypebeast cos that's where I got these pics from, and go to High Snobiety to see the red Carry All bag.

Thanks to all the above and to PUMA. You lovely, eye-candy creating bunch of shoe freaks, you.
