All In On the Animal Crossing x Puma Lineup (Gallery)

Last year, we took a look at the NES shoes from Puma, and really enjoyed the look and feel of those sneakers - still wearing them to this day! When the Animal Crossing x Puma collaboration was announced - featuring a few items, including a long sleeve shirt and sneakers - I knew I had to have them as soon as possible.
