Ferrari partners Puma to launch sneakers influenced by Ferrari SF90 Stradale
Ferrari has joined hands with Puma to launch the ION F sneakers inspired by the factories constructing the iconic Italian sportscars. The ION F embraces features of the Ferrari SF90 Stradale which is a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) introduced last year.
The elevated design of the shoe, with ribbons flaunting the name of the luxury carmaker in Ferrari's iconic red, gives it a sharp and sturdy athletic look. The shape of the reflective thermoplastic polyurethane (more commonly known as the thermal plastic panel) in the rear of it is wrapped by a PU foam that reflects the front spoiler of the SF90. Using mesh materials, a knitted socks-like supporter has been constructed on the upper side of the shoe to ensure maximum comfort for the user. It also constitutes magnetic fit-lock buckles up which intends to provide extra support to the feet.
