Puma has found the perfect pitchman to represent its Classics collection.

Some of the sneaker styles presented include the Puma Suede, G. Vilas and Sneakerboot. The kicks are complemented by velour tracksuits, T-shirts, hoodies and bombers.

In a statement, Young Thug praised Puma for its commitment to classic styles.

“Big ups to Puma for keeping the sneaker legacy alive,” he said. “I pay my respects to the legends by rockin’ their tunes and their kicks. Like one legend says, in this great future, we can’t forget the past.”
