Patent Pumas

Here I go eating my own words… Who wears PUMAs anymore? The only people seem to be gay men who came out when PUMAs were still cool and are desperately still clinging to that youthful moment.

And apparently I will be too now thanks to their latest makeover in the patent pack. The three new editions all come in full patent leather, including a tri-tone red/white/blue, a murdered-out black, and a white mockup with a contrasting blue stripe. Available through Feature, $80.

Christian has been a cultural and style junkie since the age of 6; while most kids were swiping cookies, he was swiping his grandfathers' Patek Philippe. Raised to appreciate art, fashion,design and  literature (yeah, this one actually reads) by a single mother fondly called Jackie-O. Christian quickly went from childhood cultural capital thief to academia protégé. Referred to as the cat's meow by some, too clever by half by others, Christian eschewed the academic life and ran away to join the circus -the fashion circus. Several well-appointed positions later and a career on the rise would be most people's dream but it was time to say fuck off and start all over again.

This is Christian Dare Unedited.
