Porsche is marking half a century of the iconic 911 Turbo with something special for car enthusiasts and sneakerheads alike. In collaboration with sportswear giant Puma, Porsche is releasing a limited series of twelve unique limited edition Porsche x PUMA sneaker designs, each meticulously crafted to celebrate this legendary car. But these aren’t just fashionable footwear—each model is a tribute to the rich heritage and unmistakable design of the 911 Turbo, with only 911 pairs available for each design.
Every sneaker in the limited edition Porsche x PUMA sneaker collection features dynamic vintage turbo lettering on the exterior, a subtle Porsche logo, and a 3D-printed Porsche Crest on the heel. The heel is designed to resemble the iconic “whale fin” rear spoiler of the Turbo, complete with the vehicle’s signature horizontal red taillights.
Adding to the exclusivity, each limited edition Porsche x PUMA sneaker has a removable plaque on the lacing, celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 911 Turbo.
Puma’s “Road Rider” silhouette was chosen as the canvas for these designs, blending motorsport heritage with contemporary sneaker culture. And for those who love a global twist, Porsche has rolled out ten additional country-exclusive editions, each limited to 911 pairs and available only in their respective markets.
These Porsche x PUMA sneaker designs take inspiration from the Porsche 911 Turbo models unique to countries like Germany, Japan, and the UK, using authentic colors from Porsche’s vintage color charts.
To sweeten the deal, every pair of these limited-edition sneakers comes with an extra set of laces so that you can switch up your style. Porsche also includes an exclusive black Puma sports bag with a zipper and adjustable shoulder strap, perfect for carrying your new kicks in style.
Porsche x PUMA Turbo No. 1 Sneaker
The Porsche x PUMA Turbo No. 1 sneaker draws inspiration from the legendary 911 Turbo gifted to Louise Piëch on her 70th birthday, a car that is etched in the annals of automotive history.
The Porsche x PUMA Turbo No. 1 sneaker, dressed in a sleek Metallic Silver, features the iconic red and blue tartan pattern that graced the original Turbo’s interior, creating a perfect blend of style and nostalgia.
Porsche x PUMA Turbo 930 Sneaker
Then there’s the Porsche x PUMA Turbo 930, a sneaker that pays homage to Dr. Ferry Porsche’s beloved 1976 Turbo. Wrapped in a rich Oak Green Metallic, this design echoes the green tartan pattern found in the interior of Dr. Porsche’s car.
Crafted with premium nubuck leather, this sneaker is as comfortable as it is stylish—a true nod to the luxury and performance that Porsche represents.
Porsche x PUMA Turbo USA Sneaker
Porsche has also crafted something special specifically for the US market: the Porsche x PUMA Turbo USA sneaker. This model takes cues from the classic Olive color that adorned many American 911 Turbos.
The Olive body is complemented by a black exterior lining and red details that mimic the unmistakable taillights of the original car. It’s a design that captures the spirit of the 930 Turbo right down to the last detail.
Starting August 29th, 2024, at precisely 9:11 a.m. CEST (3:11 a.m. ET), the “Turbo No. 1,” “Turbo 930,” and “Turbo USA” sneakers will be available for purchase for $199 each. The “Turbo USA” edition will also be available at local Porsche Centers for those in the US.
Mark your calendar and get ready to step into something truly special.
