Upon its release in 1999, the PUMA Mostro was immediately considered disruptive for its unique design, punctuated by statement features like its spiked outsole and strap closure.
In 2004, the Mostro's creator, a PUMA designer named Peter Schmidt, reworked his original sketches, giving birth to the Ur Mostro. The Ur injected the silhouette with new elements, amplifying the shoe's daring look by adding exaggerated spikes, ventilated mesh panels on the upper, and a durable leather upper.
Today, in collaboration with Inside Tag, the Puma Mostro is finished in vibrant colorways such as "Warm White / Light Straw" and "Haute Coffee / PUMA Black." PUMA's leaping cat logo prominently appears in a contrasting hue on each colorway, paying tribute to its storied past while embracing a contemporary aesthetic. This exclusive release maintains the model's signature balance of technical precision and cultural significance, making it an essential addition to any collection.
INSIDE TAG's archival rework features a premium leather upper saddled on a wide-looped mesh underlay, creating a honeycomb-like imprint that develops uniquely on each shoe, enhanced lugs on the outsole, aged TPU components nodding to the philosophies of research and curation that inform INSIDE TAG, and an elongated rear heel tab to catch trouser cuffs.
Celebrate history, innovation, and creative expression with this limited-edition Puma Mostro, available exclusively at Inside Tag.
