Dropping in PUMA Royal – PUMA Black, the sneakers feature clear transparent rubber outsole with the Hot Wheels graphics on the reverse side.
Paying tribute to the toy car that was created 50 years ago, the RS-X TOYS Hot Wheels Camaro takes cues from the ’68 Camaro custom edition. An ode to the life-size replica built in 2018, these sneakers drop in Vibrant Orange – PUMA Black colorway. The RS-X TOYS Hot Wheels Bone Shaker reinterprets the famous casting launched in 2006.
