Sergio Rossi teams up with Puma

Puma's iconic Clyde sneaker, which was first launched in 1973, has been given a luxury make-over by the Italian brand, and the results are decidedly high fashion - literally. The combination of Puma's street wear aesthetic and Sergio Rossi's heritage of elegance and style has spawned the Chic-Sneak, a trainer with a twist, sporting as it does a high-heel. There are two styles to choose from: a Mary-Jane shoe featuring Puma's signature velcro strap and a lace-up pump (pictured).

The shoes will be hitting Sergio Rossi and Puma stores from March, but if you can't wait until then book yourself a trip to Paris in January when the range will be exclusively stocked in Colette.
