Matt Varga While LaMelo Ball’s on-court persona and play style can be a wedge issue for basketball fans, what we can all agree on is the wide success of his signature line. Almost unanimously accepted within younger demographics and additionally catching on in the adult set, the MB.01 and its successors propelled the point guard into a lifestyle lane, debuting with the PUMA LaFrance. As anticipation builds for the PUMA MB.05, he and the brand are taking another spinoff stop, unveiling the PUMA Electrify Nitro 2.
Despite the title, the shoe is more immediately apparent as a trail-inspired proposition, owing to the jagged, lugged traction underfoot and the hiking-adjacent lace unit, replete with thick, rope-like laces. Regardless of which vertical it shuffles into upon release, they’re equally undeniable as a LaMelo proposition, carrying on the tendency in the superstar’s line to creatively adapt branding hits: oversized, throwback “LF” bubble letters sit on the tongue, while the eye-stays sport synthetic, jagged “LaFrance” lettering.
Head underfoot for more intrigue, as the PUMA Electrify Nitro 2 shifts away from its predecessor’s straightened, skateboard-adjacent platform, instead adapting the wavy geometry of the MB.04’s sole. Within it, you see further links to the PUMA LaFrance proper, including the oval-shaped dimples in the rubber. Those add some fresh hallmarks with the creative applications of the Formstrip and Big Cat within jeweled emblems.
This debut colorway, comprised of “Light Sand/Orange Glo/Aquatic,” furthers the expressive trademarks of Puma Hybrid Fuego Fm First Mile Camo Burnt Olive Men Running that we’re now plenty familiar with, wearing dominated by the earthy shades but displaying a heat-map/tie-dye pattern within the mesh below.
We can confirm that the PUMA Electrify Nitro 2 is set to release on August 1st, retailing for $120 in adult sizing. Further colorways are planned through the Fall 2025 season.
