Puma Velophasis x Vibram 'Black/Dark Red' – Trail-Inspired Chunky Sneakers

Built for the streets. Ready for the wild. The Puma Velophasis x Vibram "Black/Dark Red" is a bold collaboration between Puma and Vibram — the world’s leading outsole technology company — that merges chunky retro runner aesthetics with genuine trail performance engineering. The result is a shoe that looks as aggressive as it performs: a blacked-out suede and mesh upper layered with a silver reflective Formstrip, a deep dark red padded collar, and a dual-lace system in neon yellow-green and dark red that makes a statement before you even take a step. Below, the Vibram-branded outsole delivers the traction and grip technology that has made Vibram the most trusted name in outdoor footwear for over 80 years.

• Upper: Black suede and engineered mesh construction — a rugged, multi-material build that balances structure, breathability, and trail-ready durability
• Colorway: Black / Dark Red / Neon Yellow-Green — an all-black base with dark red collar accents and neon yellow-green lace contrast for a bold, utilitarian palette
• Formstrip: Silver reflective Formstrip — a high-visibility, light-catching stripe that adds safety functionality and a premium technical detail to the dark upper
• Dual Lace System: Neon yellow-green and dark red rope laces — a dual-lace trail running feature that adds rugged utility and bold color contrast simultaneously
• Collar: Dark red padded ankle collar with Puma Cat logo detail — a deep, rich accent that anchors the colorway and provides cushioned ankle comfort
• Branding: Puma Cat logo on the collar and “Vibram” yellow logo badge on the side panel — clearly identifying the collaboration between two iconic performance brands
• Outsole: Vibram rubber outsole with aggressive multi-directional lug traction pattern — the gold standard in outdoor grip technology, engineered for performance on varied terrain
• Midsole: Chunky black midsole with the Velophasis’s signature bold platform profile

The Puma Velophasis x Vibram Black/Dark Red is the sneaker for those who refuse to choose between looking good and being prepared. The Vibram outsole means you can actually take it off-road. The reflective Formstrip means you’re visible in low light. The neon laces mean you’re never invisible anywhere else. This is trail performance dressed in streetwear, and it does both jobs without compromising either one.
