The Creeper

3 years of Creeper...

By the time of the first drop of the Creeper — a spin on Puma’s Suede silhouette with a creeper-style midsole — in September 2015, there was so much built-up anticipation that the shoes sold out in three hours.

3 years after, the sneaker has reached cult status and is still a tremendous commercial success.

in 2016, the Creeper was awarded Shoe of the Year by Footwear News, Rihanna being the first woman to receive the award, which counts as a major win with sneaker culture remaining fairly male-dominated.
