To coincide with this year’s Record Store Day, which is this Saturday, April 18, London underground record label Trax Couture has joined forces with the UK’s Footpatrol, as well as PUMA, for a special release. The silhouette of choice is PUMA’s R698, here having been done up in dark leather. Multicolored rope-style laces accompany the trainers, which are then accented below by a speckled midsole. In addition, collaborative branding can be seen at the tongue. For a premium finish, the R698 will be presented in a bespoke, matte black box featuring a silk-screened project logo.

Additionally, a limited edition 12” vinyl by record label head and producer Rushmore will also be sold on the day. The 4x track EP that comes accompanied with video content will feature Rushmore in a slightly different light, drawing inspiration from instrumental rap, Miami Bass, electro and R&B.

The Trax Couture x Footpatrol x PUMA R698 will be available at Footpatrol on April 18.
