Closing out 2023, rookie guard Scoot Henderson joined a short list of all-time greats in the NBA by receiving his first signature shoe in his debut season. Teaming up with PUMA Hoops, the two introduced the PUMA Scoot Zeros as a pair of kicks that embraces Henderson’s “O.D.D.: Overly Determined to Dominate” spirit. Now, a second colorway is on the way courtesy of a collaboration with Cheetos.
Tapping into Cheetos’ fan-favorite Flamin’ Hot flavor, this iteration of the Scoot Zeros sees orange and black go back and forth across the thematic rendition of the kicks. Key nods to Cheetos include Chester Cheetah’s spots and a shoe box that references the snack’s instantly-recognizable packaging. However, that’s not all for PUMA and Cheetos as two additional shoe designs and a complementary apparel range have also been prepared.
Both the RS-X and Suede Classic have adopted a Cheetos-inspired flair, with black, white and orange detailing spread throughout, combining with co-branding hits at the tongues of both shoes. Adding to this, an apparel collection combines iconic Cheetos graphics with PUMA branding across a hoodie, long-sleeve tee, t-shirts and shorts.
Release for the Cheetos x PUMA Scoot Zeros is set to go down on February 16 for NBA All-Star Weekend 2024 via PUMA at an expected price of $100 USD. Alongside this, the accompanying apparel and footwear options will also launch on February 16 at prices ranging from $45 USD to $115 USD.
