Partnering with Puma to bring The Suicide Squad closer to another crazed demographic- the sneaker market, Harley Quinn, King Shark, Peacemaker, Polka-Dot Man, and Bloodsport are all getting immortalized by acclaimed comic artist Jen Bartel onto sneakers and we just can’t complain. For the collab, Puma is using its iconic Suede sneaker to depict a unique look showcasing the members of the Suicide Squad.
