The Puma Black Fives collection refers to the first generation of professional African American basketball players. It all began in Washington DC in 1904, when PE teacher Edwin Henderson introduced basketball to his students. Thanks to their love for the sport, history gave us legends such as Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant.
The Puma collection recalls history with two retro sneakers and an apparel collection, which is wearable in and out the B-Ball field.
