HERE'S HOW WE'RE STYLING THE JUST-DROPPED PUMA MOSTRO

Bold, daring and mesmerising, the just-dropped PUMA Mostro is about to shake up your trainer collection for the better – and footballer-turned-fashion-muse Romeo Beckham approves. You already know the streamlined-trainer silhouette is hot right now, but this hybrid sprinter-surf style is in a lane of its own. Originally released in 1999, the low-profile shoe is on a major comeback arc and still serving the same It-shoe energy 25 years later. Here's how Romeo styles the latest colourways.

The Mostro, which is Italian for 'monster', is built different – it’s an unlikely fusion of two eras: the 60s sprint sneaker and the 80s surf shoe, AKA a hybrid like no other. With its distinctive spiked sole, sculptural silhouette and crossover straps, the Mostro has big look-at-me energy. Some might call them an acquired taste or intimidating, but it's all in the styling, especially for those looking to express their inner maximalist – and if Romeo's wearing them, then consider us sold.

Wondering how to wear the new drop? According to Fashion Editor Will Johns, it's the details that bring everything together. 'Its unique design transforms any outfit into a statement look, but they come to life when paired with clean lines and structured silhouettes,' Will explained. Do it like Romeo and choose straight-leg jeans or head-to-toe denim to give the Mostros room to make a statement. The question is, what colour will you go for?
