Designed in partnership with Nipsey Hussle, the PUMA x TMC Collection pays tribute to Nipsey’s vision and legacy. On September 5th, 2019 the collection was released and 100% of the net proceeds from the sales are going directly to the Neighborhood “Nip” Foundation.
The TMC x PUMA collection sold out in a couple hours. The limited collection was only available in Shoe Palace. Online orders sold out in the first hour.
Shoe Palace senior vice president John Mersho of the late rapper’s legacy:
“Nipsey’s music will always be remembered, but more importantly, the man will be remembered. His legacy is bigger than music, and that is the greatest compliment I could give him. He inspired a lot of people, including myself, to give back. For me, that’s his legacy.”

Puma and Nipsey Hussle have been partnering up for years. They are actually one of the first major brands that supported Nipsey and his movement.
Last year in October Nipsey visited Las Vegas Desert Pines High School and Doolittle Community Center with G Eazy as a surprise to drop off thousands of dollars worth of PUMA Hoops basketball shoes.
