We'd love to introduce some new holiday gifts inspired by the internationally famous Pokemon anime, and its beloved trademark character, Pikachu. Pokémon was born in Japan in 1996, yet it has taken the world by storm and continues to be famous to this very day.
The adorable Pikachu boasts fans of all ages and genders, making Pikachu-themed products the perfect holiday gift for anyone on your list.
The PUMA x Pokémon sneaker collection reflects the world of Pokemon through color and design
PUMA is one of the most popular sporting goods brands in the world. And now, PUMA Japan (PUMA Japan K.K.) is releasing its first-ever Pokemon collaboration with the brand-new PUMA x Pokémon collection.
The PUMA x Pokémon collection features designs inspired by popular Pokémon characters such as Pikachu, Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle, with adorable apparel items, including sneakers and T-shirts.
This is the Pikachu-themed RS-X. Shoe designs are based on popular PUMA lines such as Slipstream, Suede Classics, and Rider FV.
The green Rider FV, inspired by Bulbasaur, and the blue Suede Classics, inspired by Squirtle.
The Charmander-themed orange Slipstream.
Each playful design is based on the characters' main color, with images of the characters hiding in the shoe's tongue label, insole, and heel.
Baby and children's sizes are also available, making it the perfect gift for kids! Coordinate adorable matching outfits with the entire family!
There are also T-shirts and sweatshirts with Pokemon prints!
This bag and hat, featuring a softer shade of Pikachu's signature yellow color and Pikachu silhouette designs, are simple, easy-to-use items that make the perfect gifts for more grown-up fans of Pokemon.
The PUMA x Pokémon collection is available at PUMA Store Harajuku Cat Street, PUMA Store Osaka, PUMA Store Odaiba, PUMA Store Fujimi, PUMA Store Kyoto, PUMA Sapporo Factory, PUMA Store Fukuoka, and the PUMA Official Online Shop (https://jp.puma.com/).
