Japanese Samurai Inspire The atmos x PUMA RS-X

03 Dec 19, 2:21 PM•Adam Cheung

The PUMA RS-X is hands down one of the most popular lifestyle sneakers of 2019. The perfect blend of classic and contemporary, it's designed with the German brand's FUTRO aesthetic in mind. Now, they've teamed up with Japanese boutique atmos for a samurai-inspired colourway, and it's a match made in heaven.

An homage to traditional Ukiyo-e art, specifically Nikuhitsu-ga woodblock prints, this RS-X is painted in a striking red, green, and yellow colour palette. Made to accompany a bespoke illustration from THREE TIDES TATTOO affiliate Ukiyoemon Mitomoya, the accents perfectly complement the drawing of the samurai, and is crafted from an extremely glossy patent leather than's smooth to the touch.

Down below, an extra chunky Running System midsole is present for comfort and cushioning that's truly unrivalled, and rounding it all off is a grippy outsole for durable traction with every step.

Available now in Japan, we're unsure whether or not the atmos x PUMA RS-X will get a global release, so make sure you keep it locked at @thesolesupplier and @thesolerestocks on Twitter and we'll let you know as soon as word comes in! While you're here, here's how to style the PUMA RS-X3 “Puzzle”!
