Alexander McQueen began collaborating with Puma in 2005. His designs are appropriately sporty yet maintain a distinctly avant-garde edge. The high-fashion look and supple leathers of this example blur the line between casual and dress styles. Designer sneakers have become acceptable wear for all but the most formal occasions.
