PUMA has teamed up with New York label GUIZIO to revive the Klim, an archival climbing-inspired sneaker first released in 2003.
The collaboration updates the technical silhouette with a more refined, everyday approach while keeping its outdoor roots intact. Designed with function in mind, the reworked Klim features premium leather with subtle distressing and an earthy, tonal colour palette intended to feel worn-in and grounded.
Danielle Guizio explained, “The process started with function. The original inspiration from rock climbing shoes naturally led to this idea of grounding, something that feels connected, stable, and intentional. I wanted to preserve that technical foundation, but refine it into something that feels effortless and wearable in everyday life”.
The accompanying campaign frames the sneaker in an elemental setting, shot against snow-covered terrain, pale light and mossy greens to echo its nature-led inspiration.
