Puma LaMelo Ball MB.03 LaFrancé FOREVER.RARE

The Puma LaMelo Ball MB.03 LaFrancé FOREVER.RARE is a vividly colored sneaker in a collaboration between Puma, LaFrancé, and NBA player LaMelo Ball. This basketball shoe stands out for the bold graphics across the mesh upper and its colorway of Fluro Green, Green, and Luro Yellow. The mesh upper displays a fleur-de-lis pattern screened across a Fluro Green background, with claw mark-like graphics tearing into the delicate print. The semi-translucent rubber outsole wraps around the bottom of the shoe, giving the illusion of dripping goo. The outsole is crafted from a non-slip material that provides additional traction. The quilted heel counter includes 'M.E.L.O,' '1+1+1,' and '0ofONE' in bold lettering along with a Puma emblem. Our experts like the nitro foam midsole, which delivers cushioning without weighing the shoe down. The Puma LaMelo Ball MB.03 LaFrancé FOREVER.RARE was released on October 6th, 2023, and retailed at $140. Drawn from a capsule collection with LaMelo Ball’s lifestyle brand, the LaFrancé x PUMA MB.03 'FOREVER.RARE' features a bright green engineered mesh upper, covered in a fleur-de-lis print and accented with alien claw marks. ‘LF’ is emblazoned on the tongue, while quilted textile heel panel displays ‘M.E.L.O.’ and ’01 of One’ branding. Underfoot, ‘RARE’ is spelled out across the translucent rubber outsole, which extends up the NITROFOAM midsole for a unique acid bath effect.
