Kehinde Wiley x Puma

Picture-16

We’ve been keeping an eye on artist Kehinde Wiley who’s been attracting some much-deserved attention lately for bringing a fresh look to African-American representations in art. Puma was quick to get in good with that talent, commissioning Wiley to create artworks and provide inspiration for a limited-edition shoes/clothing line in conjunction with this year’s World Cup held in South Africa.

A very cool part of this collaborative effort is a limited-edition uniform meant to be shared by all three African teams competing in the World Cup as a symbol of unity. Watch the clip from Puma above and catch an interview with Wiley at PSFK.
