Colorful sports shoes from Puma

The colors of sports shoes are usually boring and limited: white, black, red or blue. How about sports shoes that are more fashionable and suited for leisure wear?

For people who enjoy life, sports shoes in various colors, such as a mix of pink, yellow, green, etc, and floral prints, are now available in Jakarta.

Germany's noted sports shoemaker Puma collaborated with Chinese brand Shanghai Tang to create Shanghai Tang Peony, casual shoes that blend modernity and sophistication.

The shoes feature a Chinese peony floral print -- a print that has been popular in Chinese fashion since the 1960s -- and have metal trim and Puma signature and stripe.

The comfortable shoes are only available at Shang Hai Tang boutiques, including the one at Plaza Senayan, in South Jakarta and a few selected retailers with a price tag of about US$200.
