First Look at Tyrese Haliburton’s PUMA Hali 1 ‘Blue’ Sneaker Ahead of September Release

Tyrese Haliburton

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton has unveiled a new look at his upcoming PUMA Hali 1 “Blue” colorway, with the sneakers expected to release in September 2025 for $140. Despite being sidelined with injury and projected to miss the season, the All-Star guard is keeping spirits high by teasing his second colorway after debuting the line in last season’s NBA Finals.

Haliburton first introduced the PUMA Hali 1 during Game 1 of the Finals, showcasing the “Hibiscus” pink design crafted by acclaimed footwear designer Salehe Bembury. The launch marked his entry into the world of signature sneakers, with the design tailored to match both his personality and dynamic playing style. Now, fans are getting their first glimpse of the “Blue” version, signaling the continuation of the line.

The upcoming colorway features multiple shades of blue woven throughout the sneaker’s design. The synthetic upper sports a deep, traditional blue, contrasted by TPU-molded side supports in darker ocean and royal tones. The Nitro midsole carries a similar finish, while lighter aquamarine accents highlight the PUMA logo and outsole, creating a layered and detailed aesthetic.

Much like the bold “Hibiscus” edition, the “Blue” colorway takes a tonal approach by using different shades of the same base color to emphasize texture and intricate details. The design is a reflection of PUMA’s effort to merge performance technology with unique visual appeal, making the Hali 1 one of the more anticipated sneaker drops heading into the NBA season.

Haliburton gave fans a preview of the sneakers as he celebrated moving out of his walking boot, signaling progress in his recovery. While his absence will be a major hurdle for the Pacers after falling just one win short of the 2025 championship, his signature sneaker line continues to build momentum in the basketball footwear space.

The PUMA Hali 1 “Blue” is slated for release in September 2025 through PUMA’s online and retail outlets. At $140, the sneaker will join an expanding lineup of performance-driven basketball shoes designed with Haliburton’s input, keeping him connected to the game and fans even while sidelined.
