THE DESIGN

Fashion for
every era.

PUMA partnered with Pepsi to design a limited-edition collection incorporating iconic logos and color blocking inspired by Pepsi cans. The fashion line, which launched globally in fall 2018 and was sold in Puma, Foot Locker and third-party specialty retailer stores, offered timeless fits and silhouettes adapted for modern tastes.

FILM FEATURE

Celebrating 5
decades of
influence.

Pepsi and Puma span generations and remain cultural touchstones for the present. Every piece of content was designed to represent these brands’ 50 years of influence.

This idea was expressed through an editorial film featuring two young people who walk through a city, interacting with different eras of street culture, music and fashion—until they reach the present. Sporting the new collection, they are the next Pepsi generation.
