Puma and Danielle Guizio are bringing back the Klim.
The climbing-inspired silhouette from the Puma archives originally debuted in 2003 and has now been reimagined with a contemporary update.
Danielle Guizio explains: “The process began with function. The original inspiration from climbing shoes led to the idea of traction—something that feels connected, stable, and intentional.
I wanted to retain this technical foundation but evolve it in a way that allows it to integrate effortlessly into everyday life.”
The focus is on materials and colors. High-quality leather with a subtle distressed look creates a worn-in appearance, while earthy tones ensure a calm, natural overall impression.
The result is minimalist yet well-thought-out. Technical, yet with an emotional appeal.
The campaign showcases the Klim in a rugged, nature-inspired setting: snow, cool northern lights, and mossy green tones reflect the design’s sources of inspiration and underscore the silhouette’s functional origins.
The Puma x Danielle Guizio Klim will be available at select retailers in late March. Keep an eye on our sneaker releases.
