Matt Varga atmos never shies away from a collaboration, uniting with nearly every major brand on a consistent basis and sprouting beloved output like their Air Max 1 or Оригінальні жіночі кросівки puma cali sport mix in the process. After previewing several Three Stripes pairs in the past few months, they’re sticking around in Germany but swapping brands. Revisiting a previous motif, founder Hirofumi Kojima previewed a third edition of their Sukajan Puma Suede.
Last released in 2021 with blue and black editions, atmos’ take on the lifestyle silhouette prints rich synthetics on the quarter panels, replicating vintage souvenir jackets as faithfully as possible. In line with that, rich dragon embroidery arrives over top of a golden Formstrip with additional platinum clouds dotted around it. Finally, on the medial side, a modified (read: certainly not to scale) map of Japan stretches from the toe to the collar, closed out with a depiction of Mt. Fuji and cursive “Japan” text underneath.
As with most of atmos’ collabs, this is almost assuredly a Japan exclusive release. While our stateside readers may have to resort to grey market means to grab a pair, our Japanese audience should keep an eye on our Sneaker Release Dates page for more concrete info as the year draws on.
