February 24, 2023PUMA Archive lies at the very centre of maintaining PUMAs history and inspiring its future. 75 years of sports history and innovation can be found in the archive, and the archive is only going to continue to grow.
In 2022, the Archive team welcomed many of our PUMA Ambassadors and visitors to our HQ, launched important media activations, and attended and hosted many important exhibitions to bring PUMA’s archive around the world.

Media Activations
PUMA Archive is a hit on social media when it comes to showcasing the old and the new. For the African Cup of Nations, PUMA Football dived deep into our football jersey and shoe archive to show followers PUMA’s history in African football. Similarly, we opened the PUMA Vault for the 2022 FIFA World Cup – where PUMA team Morocco made history. Other media activations include TRINOMIC, seit 1990!, #FOREVERFASTER depuis 1950, Unisport – Hidden Gems from the PUMA Archive, FIGC – Forever Italia, a Timeless Story, and Hanging out with Legend Giorgio Chiellini.
