Note for Bidders/Investors:
Official numbered footwear collaborations between Porsche and top-tier brands like PUMA tend to appreciate in the international automotive memorabilia market. Being strictly limited to 917 units worldwide (in honor of the car’s name), acquiring a commercially sought-after size like 42.5 EUR in pristine condition is extremely rare. A superb opportunity to display in a showroom or enjoy for a true gentleman driver.

The lot will be shipped with reinforced double packaging, insured, and with maximum-priority international tracking.
