Puma Disc LuxKasina Egret

Product Description

Korean retailer Kasina created the Kasina x Puma Disc Trinomic Lux "Egret" using the classic Disc Trinomic model that was originally released by Puma in 1993. In hopes of capturing the market for those athletes who were "on the run," the Disc fastening system was created to decrease lacing time. Building upon the classic silhouette and technical aspects of the Puma Disc, Kasina kicked things up a notch by using quilted leathers on the Egret. The Disc Egret's upper boasts a pure white quilted leather toe box, mid-foot underlay and heel paneling. While Egret Lux toe cap, made of beige leather, contrasts nicely against the white toe box yet is also subtle enough to be worn both on the track and off. Paired with another colorway, the "Gucci," the Egret Lux was released in October of 2014 at a retail price of $160. Although some were turned off by the mix of luxurious materials paired with the plastic and composite fastening Disc system, many believe that Kasina's ambitious use of materials and design brought Disc technology back into 21st century fashion. Whether you like its aesthetics or not, the Kasina x Puma Disc Trinomial Lux "Egret" is undeniably luxurious.
