PUMA honors Jamaica’s unmatched track and field heritage with a special-edition H-Street sneaker drop in the country’s signature colors.

This release salutes the Caribbean nation’s record-breaking track and field legacy, its vibrant culture, and PUMA’s deep-rooted connection to Jamaican athletics.

Revisiting a Milestone Partnership

This launch draws from PUMA’s celebrated 2003 campaign, which marked the official start of its partnership with the Jamaican national track and field team. That original drop introduced a range of H-Street colorways, including a standout Jamaican flag design, and brought the island’s athletic dominance and cultural energy into the global spotlight.

The 2025 re-release stays true to the spirit of the original, featuring bold black, yellow, and green details that nod to Jamaica’s national flag while delivering a fresh, contemporary edge for today’s sneaker audience.

Design: Minimalist Build, Maximum Impact

The H-Street is known for its lightweight, breathable design and subtle but distinctive styling. This year’s version blends heritage details with modern wearability, making it equally suited to city life or casual track-inspired fashion.

Key features include:

  • Breathable mesh upper for comfort and ventilation

  • Nostalgic T-shaped toebox evoking early 2000s running style

  • Track-inspired outsole tread that hints at its racing origins

The model’s DNA comes from an archival running spike and can be traced back to PUMA’s late-’90s Harambee silhouette. This racer was celebrated for its light build and speed-focused design, making the H-Street a sneaker with authentic athletic roots.

A Tribute to Jamaica’s Excellence

With sprint legends and global champions at every level, Jamaica has long been recognized for speed, strength, and competitive spirit. This H-Street revival pays homage not just to podium finishes, but to the style and pride that make Jamaican athletes and fans instantly recognizable around the world. The bold color blocking and minimalist lines symbolize movement, energy, and cultural identity in equal measure.

Notting Hill Carnival Launch and Cultural Celebrations

The timing of the release aligns with Notting Hill Carnival in London — Europe’s largest street festival and a joyful celebration of Caribbean heritage. PUMA will use the August 22–24 weekend to host community-focused activations, including artist collaborations, grassroots creative showcases, and music events that reflect Jamaica’s cultural influence.

Across both days of the carnival, PUMA aims to bring people together through sport, music, and fashion, mirroring the festival’s spirit of unity and creativity.

Release Details

The PUMA H-Street Pack – Jamaica Edition will be available starting August 25, 2025, at PUMA.com, PUMA flagship stores, and select authorised stockists worldwide. Quantities will be limited, making this both a collector’s item and a cultural statement piece.

This special release bridges the past and present — celebrating the original 2003 Jamaican H-Street, honoring a nation’s unmatched performance on the track, and sharing that legacy with a new generation of fans and sneaker enthusiasts.
