Runners and revvers unite for a power collab designed to carry Husqvarna’s brand aesthetic to sidewalks, treadmills and bike events around the globe – and it’s all thanks to Husqvarna’s recent partnership with German footwear brand PUMA.
Meet the PUMA Nitro 2 – an all-distance running shoe, currently carrying a Husqvarna scheme, now available only through authorized Husqvarna Motorcycles dealers.
We’re told this is the essential equipment that’s dressing the toe beans of the Husqvarna Factory Racing Team… and now, you too can play matchy-matchy with your machine of choice.
Featuring Husqie’s blue and yellow scheme with the white Husqvarna logo stamped on the top/side of the unit’s sealed toebox, this new apparel drop carries PUMA’s newest tech: NITRO Foam, designed for lightweight performance and “outstanding responsiveness and cushioning.”
Here’s a list of the rest of the Nitro 2’s specs, according to Husqvarna’s press release:
- PUMAGRIP: Durable PUMA rubber compound for grip on any surface
- TPU heel area for extra stability
- Exceptionally close fit thanks to light and breathable surface material
- Preformed, padded, and removable polyurethane insole
- Exclusively for Husqvarna Motorcycles by PUMA
