"White" seems to be the fix on my fixation for a fixed gear.

Viva Italia


Launched in 1968, the Roma was released as an all round training shoe. This Limited Edition is a 1-1 re-issue back in its original spec and color-way. The upper is a clean silhouette of white team royal in a plush leather with super soft suede overlays. Subtle attention to detail appears with the addition of old school cotton laces as well as the original Puma gold sticker of authenticity in the sockliner.

The Roma, much like many other styles released during the 60’s and 70’s is a style that continues to stand the test of time. A terrace favorite back then, Puma pays tribute with this release to the Roma fans and Azzuri European Champions of 1968.


The other 3 colorways are a more direct tribute to the Italia 68 football team.

All shoes feature the Italia blue football jersey material on the lining referencing Italy's 2 World Cup victories at that time.

The collection is now EXCLUSIVELY available at Sole What?

FAFI.MAC.MEDICOM


Fafi's strong presence in the graffiti and fine arts scene was first witnessed on her hometown walls in 1994. Back then, as she was painting and hustling, her sexy, funny, and sometimes aggressive girl characters made the whole world look and help kick-start a whole new graphic language. Speed up a decade and after numerous collaborations with sneaker companies, toy makers, art exhibitions n magazine coverage, she is once again in the spotlight.

This time Fafi teamed up with women's cosmetics giant, MAC. The whole approach to the collaboration is refreshing and certainly targets a more colorful, animated, out-going & younger audience.

In celebration of this collaboration, a trio of Fafi figures were made exclusively by Medicom for MAC.

Nike - The Power of One


Nike HK recently organized a charity art exhibition dubbed "The Power of One" with artistic contributions from the HK art community, celebrities, and the street culture influencers. It was all for a great cause and it's always heart warming to see a mega-company like Nike do their part for the society and at the same time promote the culture to a greater audience too.

Looks like a great event and kudos to our friend, Rodafixa for the pics.
