Sneaker Alert: Marathon Monday

P A R T Y  @ P U M A

Puma’s stuck their senior director of merchandising, Magda Cardosa, in the window of their Newbury Street store today – on a treadmill –  in honor of the Boston Marathon.  Stop by and see her sweat.  There’s a sale and a party (yes, of course there’s beer and music). Details below!

The Puma Store, 333 Newbury Street, Boston

Boston’s BladeRunners will be at the DJ booth all day.

A the end of Cardoso’s 26.2 mile jaunt, PUMA is throwing a soiree (everyone’s invited!) complete with balloons, snacks, and drinks courtesy of Harpoon, and maybe even dancing.

Anyone who tries on a pair of PUMA’s new Complete Ventis or Complete Spectana running sneakers gets 26% off of any piece of footwear today.  You can also enter to win $50 PUMA gift cards, which will be raffled off throughout the day.

PUMA Prefab Pop Up

Apparently this is what will be popping up tomorrow on Fan Pier in Boston. It’s called PUMA City and it is an 11,000 square-foot retail and event space made from 24 forty-foot long, reclaimed steel shipping containers. I like the look.

It was designed by PUMA and LOT-EK, and will be standing for three weeks. Why, you ask? Well, to sell shoes, I suppose. But also in celebration of the Volvo Ocean Race, which began in Alicante, Spain on October 11th. See below for their boat shaped like a shoe, Il Mostro.
