Puma Suede - Ukiyo-E

Simple Union in conjunction with The Flying Hawk Studio , have recreated the classic silhouette with a traditional Japanese twist. 
The left shoe is dressed up in blossomed Sakuras, a symbol of the Japanese spirit. Over on the right shoe, the famed Japanese Dairin-style Torii is featured next to Mount Fuji, marking a meaning of hope and dawn. 
The shoe’s tongue is then inspired by a False Tongue, which is commonly found on both mountain and military boots, that has been crafted with Japanese art patterns and bonded with leather. 

TFHS 運用固有精細的畫風，融入復古愛好者獨愛的PUMA SUEDE獨特設計當中，令整體渾然天成。日本精神的象徵－櫻花；日本人認為人生短暫，活著就要像櫻花一樣燦爛。在嚴冬過後，是櫻花最先把春天的氣息帶來，象徵生命、幸福、 永不放棄及忠誠。傳統建築－台輪鳥居；代表神域的入口，用於區分神棲息的神域和人類居住的世俗界，也是希望及晨光照耀的意思，充滿日系風情。
SU的HEAD TAG 鞋舌設計靈感沿於舊日登山靴、軍靴上的False Tongue，早期製做靴子時，使用在鞋舌上的皮料會較薄，但綁緊鞋帶後會將鞋舌擠壓到變形，甚至鞋眼釦背面的底釦會刮破鞋舌皮料，所以才演生出假鞋舌；而HEAD TAG同樣地保護鞋舌，令鞋形筆挺，亦能增加穿著的裹足感；運用日本藍染花紋古布，配合日系畫藝，令每雙PUMA SUEDE都獨一無二。
