Manchester City launch limited edition Kippax Puma trainers

Puma have teamed up with Manchester City to create two pairs of limited edition trainers celebrating the club's 125th anniversary.

The trainers come in two styles called the Kippax and Whitworth but Puma says there will only be 50 pairs each available from the City store at the Etihad Stadium on Friday 25 October.

The Kippax trainers are designed in City's famous sky blue colours and the name is a reference to the famous Kippax stand at Maine Road. The stand was the club's last standing area before all-seating was introduced at Maine Road and was the home of City's most loyal and vociferous fans.

They will be joined by a pair of Whitworth trainers designed in black and yellow. Whitworth is the name of the street the city's Hacienda nightclub stood on and ties in with City's Hacienda-inspired away shirt for the 2019/20 Premier League season.

Both sets will be priced at £100 and doors open at 9am for fans who want to get their hands on the themed trainers.

Puma says trainers will be available in adult sizes from six to 12 but there will be limited options in each size.

The trainers are not the first time kit maker Puma has teamed up with City. The club released a pair of trainers called 93:20 to celebrate the time Sergio Aguero famously scored a title-winning goal against Queens Park Rangers, denying Manchester United the title on a dramatic last day of the season.

An Ardwick pair has also been released by Puma as part of the anniversary collection.

City's 125th anniversary collection includes a classic sponsorless anniversary shirt priced at £50, t-shirts, scalves, pennants., badges and a mish mash poster celebrating the club's highlights.

It also includes a pair of Manchester City Puma Roma anniversary trainers priced at £80. You can find the anniversary range on the City store.
