MASU × PUMA Drop Three: Victorian Buttons and Linings Meet T 7 and Suede

Released in Japan on October 12, the third MASU × PUMA collection includes a ¥30,800 T 7 jacket, ¥24,200 Curio Suede sneakers and long socks. Buttons, velvet and aged finishes connect the three pieces.

MASU × PUMA Drop Three: Victorian Buttons and Linings Meet T 7 and Suede

The third MASU × PUMA collaboration launched in Japan on October 12, 2026, with three pieces: the T 7 Curio Track Jacket, Curio Suede sneakers and Flying Angels Socks. The interesting connection is how decoration and linings from nineteenth-century Victorian clothing enter sportswear. Buttons, curved seams, pockets and contrasting surfaces link the pieces across different periods of dress.

T 7 stripes remain, with a more formal-looking front

The black T 7 jacket costs ¥30,800 including Japanese tax. It uses fine, low-sheen jersey, officially listed as 100% polyester, with a full lining. Familiar sleeve stripes remain prominent, while rows of decorative buttons flank the front fastening. Large flap pockets extend around the body, and curved seams and small gathers introduce layers associated with historical clothing.

The PUMA cat on the chest and MASU angel on the right sleeve also have distressed finishes. In the product photographs, the black-and-white stripes provide recognition from a distance; the buttons and pockets reward a closer look. The jacket can therefore anchor an outfit without many additional patterns. Official sizes run from XS to XL, with lengths of approximately 56.5–63.5 cm. Compare shoulder and chest measurements as well, rather than assuming a usual sportswear size will fit identically.

Curio Suede brings the inside of clothing onto a sneaker

The ¥24,200 Curio Suede builds on PUMA Suede with contrasting black velvet and coarse cotton canvas, smoky suede at the heel and an overall vintage treatment. Speed hooks, silver branding and angel details add further points of interest, while the gum sole and creamy fabric keep the palette concentrated. The official colour name is ALPINE SNOW; this is not a separate range of bright colourways.

The appeal lies in material contrast and the suggestion of age. Textures associated with a jacket’s interior become the visible upper, connecting with the jacket’s dense button decoration. The aged finish is intentional, so buyers should examine the actual product images instead of expecting an entirely pristine white sneaker. The low-cut shape also leaves room for either full-length trousers or a visible sock.

Choosing between the three pieces

Flying Angels Socks cost ¥2,750 including Japanese tax. The black, below-knee socks combine a repeating angel pattern with a PUMA cat at the front and MASU branding at the toe. Wearing them with shorts or slightly cropped trousers can reveal the collection’s details without combining all three products. With Curio Suede as the focus, a dark sock can instead keep attention on the upper’s contrasting textures.

Japanese launch channels included PUMA Harajuku Cat Street and Osaka, the official online store and app, MASU’s store and selected retailers. When checked on October 25, every T 7 jacket size at MASU’s online store was marked sold out, so a listed stockist is not a promise of availability. Consult the official T 7 size and availability page, then choose according to the silhouette, fabric and frequency of use that suit your wardrobe. The collaboration logos are only part of the decision.
