REINVENTION – WHAT DOES REINVENTING YOURSELF MEAN TO YOU?
Putting myself in a better space and coming out stronger, cleaner and better… in terms of fashion I would say making myself fresher, and taking my style to the next level.
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONAL STYLE?
I am a young South African who loves fashion, loves what’s trending trying to keep up with fashion…. as well as looking for inspiration abroad as sometimes SA is a season behind… my personal style… I don’t have one I just go with what looks cool and trying to keep up with trends or creating my own.
WHAT’S YOUR BIGGEST FASHION NO-NO?
Biggest fashion NO-NO… a lot of people always saying ahh if I had enough money I would kill it, honestly with what you have you can still kill it, a big no-no is thinking you can purchase something that is super expensive and you think it looks good, it’s how you style it and the main point here is fakes… that’s a BIG NO!

AT FIRST GLANCE – HOW DID YOU FEEL ABOUT THE PUMA RS-X LINE?
After PUMA launched the Thunder Spectra, I knew they were gonna come with that fire… I’ve purchased more PUMA since the Thunder Spectra line… the PUMA RS350 was also a great purchase as well as the PUMA RS0
I love the whole line!
OWNING A PAIR ALREADY, HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE SILHOUETTE? (design, comfort, construction, fit,)
Comfort is the next level! Really love the colours as they go with everything well at least you can make it go with sweats to jeans to even formal pants… the construct is amazing as the dad trend is growing massively!
I love the fit as it is very much true to size.

Part of their RS-X line, PUMA recently released the RS-X Reinvention in ‘White/Irish Green’ rendition.
This is another well-executed colourway, going down the catalogue of the whole range, every release has its distinctive makeup and a good story behind it, making it hard to skip every release.
The latest PUMA RS-X Reinvention come dressed in PUMA White/ Irish Green color scheme, with a mix of materials including breathable mesh underlays, suede and leather overlays on the upper. The sneakers are fitted with a molded sock liner for added comfort, features the Running System writing on the tongue and on the side, as well as the PUMA logo on the tongue tag also inside the shoe.
For another edition of our ongoing editorial series exploring footwear and fashion’s best matchups, we present you the #YMZStyleBase: PUMA RS-X ‘Reinvention’.
We continue to explore different ways of styling the chunky silhouettes, in this case, the PUMA RS-X Reinvention, which carries the bulky design, adding to the dad-shoe trend.
THE OUTFIT
The choice to go with this outfit is to highlight the simplicity and the clean look that complements the kicks.
Allowing the sneakers to stand out easily, Carter Duli picked a simple White Tee and a Grey Trouser. This is one of the casual outfits that you can put on a random day to work, or when you’re in the mood for a hangout.
Completed with the PUMA RS-X Reinvention, the Irish Green colour is what makes the kicks pop out.
Those interested in picking up this pair can head over to PUMA SELECT stores (Joburg & Cape Town), Superbalist, Archive, and Hipkicks, where this PUMA RS-X Reinvention retails for R1,999.
Stay tuned for more heat from PUMA as the year flows.
