Berlin-based boutique Solebox recently partnered up with PUMA to produce a limited version of the brand’s Trinomic-heavy R698. The shoe incorporates a white mesh middle panel and toebox and nylon upper that coordinates nicely with an ’80s inspired grey/powder blue/lilac/black color scheme. More importantly however, the collaborative effort is highlighed by light-up laces that flash when you walk. (LA Gear, anyone?) Do the right thing and cop a pair of the Solebox x PUMA R698 when they hit retailers on April 19, 2008. Via hs and Solebox.
