#34 PUMA ALEXANDER MCQUEEN ANATOMICAL

SPORTSWEAR GIANT PUMA LOVES TO COLLABORATE. MODEL CHRISTIE TURLINGTON, AVANT-GARDE JAPANESE DESIGNER YASHUHIRO MIHARA, MINIMALIST BRITISH DESIGNER NEIL BARRETT TO NAME A FEW. ONE COLLAB THAT'S BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW SEASONS NOW IS ONE WITH WILD BRITISH DESIGNER, ALEXANDER MCQUEEN. HIS THEMES WITH THE PUMA FOOTWEAR HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ANATOMY RELATED. FOR EXAMPLE ON THIS "ANATOMICAL" MODEL, THE SOLE FEATURES TENDONS & TOE PRINTS. THE LACING SYSTEM IS ALSO INNOVATIVE, WORKING THE SHOE IN SUCH A WAY THAT WRAPS IT AROUND THE FOOT WITHOUT THE STRAIN OF THE TIGHTENED LACES OVER THE TOP OF THE FOOT.
