Porsche 911 Celebrates 60 Years With Retro And Heritage Design Sneakers

Porsche is honoring the 60th anniversary of the legendary 911 by releasing a limited-edition pair of sneakers. Created in collaboration between Porsche Lifestyle Group and Puma, these sneakers pay tribute to both the classic and modern versions of the iconic 911. To mark this special occasion, a pre-sale event for the sneakers will take place on September 5.

The design of the Retro Sneaker draws inspiration from the slim and sleek silhouette of the 1972 Porsche 911 S 2.5. Made with suede overlays, it incorporates smooth leather underlays and a tongue adorned with red stitching. The light blue color of the sneakers is complemented by the presence of the number 56, which represents a significant car from that era.
