In line with this, the Porsche Lifestyle Group is presenting two special limited sneaker editions in collaboration with global sports company Puma.
The Heritage Sneaker has a modern, sporty silhouette, and its design and colour scheme are inspired by the new Porsche 911 S/T.
The sports car with manual transmission and high-revving engine brings together the best of two lines: the high mileage of the S model and the simplicity of the T model.
The gray hue of the smooth leather shoe is based on the exterior color of the anniversary car, while the shoe lining picks up the cognac-brown tone of the interior. The starting number 63 (in reference to the year the Porsche 911 was born) and Porsche lettering – both positioned on the heel – round off the sporty look.
As a tribute to the first generation of the 911, the Heritage Sneakers are limited to 1,963 pieces.
The single numbering is found on the textile underside of the tongue, which bears the pattern of the vehicle seats. The grill badge is applied as a woven label on the front of the tongue made of smooth leather. The Heritage Sneaker features the 60 Years of Porsche 911 logo in colour. It is also found on the hang tag, which is made from the outer leather of the shoe.
The left shoe of both sneaker models come with a red lace, while the right one comes with a black one; a second lace in each of the two colours is included in the box.
At the tip of the laces, the respective limitation number can be found as a hidden highlight. The corresponding start number – 56 or 63 – is found in the heel area of the respective left sock liner; and on the right sock liner, the black and white or colored grill badge is located at this position.
The shoe bags and boxes are in the respective colour of the shoe and also printed with the respective grill badge and the respective start number.
The launch and exclusive pre-sale of the shoes will take place on Sept 5 at the Porsche pop-up store at the IAA Mobility in Munich.
They will be available to order from Sept 6 at Porsche online store as well as in the Porsche Museum store in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen and the Porsche factory stores in Zuffenhausen and Weissach.
At puma.com, the sneakers will be available to order from Sept 14 in North America and from Sept 24 in Europe.
