Lycoris Recoil fans are finally getting a chance to step into Chisato and Takina’s shoes. An upcoming collaboration with global sportswear brand PUMA has officially unveiled two new character-inspired sneaker sets celebrating the original hit anime.
The new “PUMA meets Lycoris Recoil” collaboration includes two exclusive pairs of themed sneakers, reimagining PUMA’s popular Rebound Slam Lo sneaker silhouette through Lycoris Recoil’s two heroines, Chisato Nishikigi and Takina Inouel. Alongside the footwear, the collaboration will also include newly illustrated merchandise and a limited-time pop-up shop in Tokyo.
Pre-orders for both sneaker sets open through the Marui Web Channel on July 2 and continue through Aug. 2. Each set is priced at ¥15,400 (approximately $95.21 USD) and will be available in sizes ranging from 22cm to 30cm.
PUMA Unveils Stylish Lycoris Recoil Sneakers Inspired by Chisato and Takina
Both sneaker sets are built around PUMA’s Rebound Slam Lo silhouette, pairing black leather uppers with gray midsoles and subtle Lycoris Recoil-inspired branding. Each design incorporates details unique to its featured heroine: Chisato’s free-spirited personality shines through in fiery red eyelets and an optional set of matching shoelaces, while Takina’s cool blue accents reflect her more reserved and disciplined nature.
Each set also includes interchangeable shoelaces printed with either Chisato Nishikigi’s or Takina Inoue’s name, matching character-themed metal shoe charms and exclusive illustrated replacement insoles. Fans who purchase the Chisato Set will receive a Chisato postcard, while buyers of the Takina Set will receive one featuring Takina. Customers who order two or more sneaker sets in a single transaction will also receive a collaboration-exclusive acrylic keychain.
The collaboration will also be celebrated with a dedicated pop-up shop at Tokyo’s Kinshicho Marui Mall from July 2–20, where visitors can view and purchase both shoe sets in person, along with a variety of other limited-edition products featuring Chisato and Takina wearing the new sneakers. These include acrylic stands, flags, T-shirts, and other exclusive accessories perfect for collectors.
First airing in 2022, Lycoris Recoil debuted as an original anime from A1 Pictures. The story follows elite agents Chisato Nishikigi and Takina Inoue, members of a covert organization that quietly protects Japan from threats hidden from the public eye. While Chisato’s cheerful personality and commitment to pacifism often put her at odds with Takina’s serious, mission-first approach, the pair’s unlikely friendship quickly became one of the original anime’s defining strengths, helping make the title a breakout hit in 2022.
Although the series has yet to receive a second season, the franchise lives on through Yasunori Bizen’s ongoing manga adaptation in Monthly Comic Flapper and the six-episode original net animation Lycoris Recoil: Friends are thieves of time, released in 2025. Lycoris Recoil fans all over the world will be able to purchase the new Puma collection online at the Marui Web Channel’s official collaboration page starting July 2. In the meantime, all 13 episodes of the Lycoris Recoil anime are available to stream on Crunchyroll.
