PUMA has unveiled images of a new signature MB.01 colourway titled "Be You" ready for release for LaMelo Balls' upcoming 2022/23 NBA season.
The sneakers are said to be a culmination of elements from LaMelo's previous drops, which include details from the recently released "Team Colors" pack featured among some of the best basketball shoes around right now.
This concept is something we've seen before from Nike's "What The" series which explores different sneaker themes and colourway combinations all in one set of shoes to create some of the most unique and vibrant designs around.
That said, we're focusing solely on the new MB.01 "Be You" sneakers in this article. So, without further delay, here's everything we know about their release so far...
