PUMA 'SHOWTIME PACK' Campaign Launch
On May 21, 2026, at 16:00, PUMA Japan Co., Ltd. will kick off its much-anticipated "SHOWTIME PACK" campaign, aligning with the commencement of an international football tournament. This campaign features prominent PUMA athletes, including Ritsu Doan, Junya Ito, and Wataru Endo, who embody determination and ambition as they prepare for one of the most prestigious events in sports.
Stunning Visuals for a Major Challenge
The campaign’s visuals employ striking lighting techniques to convey the players’ readiness and resolve to compete on the world’s largest stage. With each image capturing the essence of their journeys, the visuals serve not only as marketing but as motivation for fans and aspiring footballers alike.
Exclusive In-Store Events and Player Cards
In addition to online promotions, customers visiting PUMA stores and engaging on social media will find captivating content that outlines each footballer’s aspirations as they prepare for their moment of “SHOWTIME.” Notably, PUMA stores will feature special decor tailored to the campaign, enhancing the shopping experience. Purchasers of SHOWTIME PACK products, or other PUMA items above 10,000 JPY (including tax), will receive a collectible player card showcasing one of PUMA’s signed athletes. These cards will be delivered at random from a pool of ten athletes, creating a sense of surprise and excitement among fans.
Introducing the SHOWTIME PACK Football Boots
Accompanying the campaign launch is the release of a daring collection of football cleats known as the "SHOWTIME PACK." This line includes the innovative FUTURE 9 ULTIMATE, ULTRA 6 ULTIMATE, and KING 20 ULTIMATE models. Each design features bold asymmetrical color combinations, inspired by PUMA's iconic 2014 TRICKS PACK, cementing the collection's unique identity. The neon pink, blue, and yellow accents are not just visually striking but are intended to evoke emotion and inspire players to perform with passion.
Personal Insights from the Athletes
Ritsu Doan shares his philosophy: "What I mean by ‘SHOW’ is to be the best team, looking stylish while achieving that goal. If I don’t come out on top, I don’t feel I’ve fulfilled that ‘SHOW’ I'm aiming for. Success is about being first."
Junya Ito emphasizes his role: "I consider my ability to deliver great crosses as my signature, so I want to create plenty of chances for our team. I aim to showcase my authentic style during the tournament."
