“The essence of racing”.
The new PUMA for BMW Sauber F1 Team Collection 2006.
 
 
Munich. ”The essence of racing“ is the motto of the new PUMA for BMW Sauber F1 Team Collection.

Wind- and waterproof materials, ultra-light fleece and high-quality cotton have been used by the BMW Sauber F1 Team and PUMA in new designs and style ideas to create a modern, sporty collection. Surprising details, top-quality craftsmanship and comfort transform the textiles for ladies, men and juniors into cool outfits. The collection is rounded off with appropriate accessories that are a must for a sporty and fashion-conscious lifestyle.

The highlights. The front of the Mens Graphic T-Shirt in dark blue features a stylised racetrack in red and white on the front, permitting elements of Formula 1 to influence the design. The red, white and blue striped Mens Polo Shirt, on the other hand, is sure to become a popular basic item away from the Formula 1 circus as well as at the track.

The unisex Track Jacket is fashion highlight featuring puffed sleeves and pipings. The wind- and waterproof breathable Statement Jacket is also available in a ladies’ (white) and men’s (blue) style. These products perfectly combine functional considerations with an innovative design. An amusing detail of the whole collection jackets is the zip, which is in the shape of the accelerator pedal of the Formula 1 cars.

For female fans the Ladies Top Reversible is the highlight of the current PUMA for BMW Sauber F1 Team Collection 2006. The reversible v-neck top is available in white with the PUMA logo or a graphic all-over print in dark blue that features the shape of a Formula 1 wheel rim. Thanks to the Elastan in the fabric, the top fits tightly and retains its shape. The Reversible Bandana is an accessory in the same look. The dark blue Ladies’ Fashion Polo Shirt with a white collar and button- facing is a business- and leisurewear classic. The rather severe style is charmingly offset by the shirt’s slightly puffed sleeves.

 
The Ladies’ Capri Pants are a must-have in summer – they are a standard part of a stylish outfit. Contrasting white pocket pipings and a white waistband with stripes on the legs add a playful touch to the dark blue trousers.

Accessory No. 1: Shoes. What would the PUMA for BMW Sauber F1 Team Collection 2006 be without the most important accessory: Shoes! The fashionable “Tour cat low“ sneakers in white leather with blue edges and a blue-red sole have surprising details in their design and an ergonomic shape. The DuoCELL stabilisers and springs in the sole of the dark blue Team Trainer Deka, which is both fashionable and technically refined, make it perfect for running. The younger sports fashion fan is also catered to with the Kart Cat V Junior. The white leather sneaker with blue, red and silver trimmings has a white and blue non-slip rubber sole.

Bags Collection. The Ladies Grip Bag and the Little Weekender Bag in dark blue are perfect for leisure or shopping – even for a short trip. The sporty bags’ numerous compartments and zips offer a generous amount of space and storage room. The white pipings around the bag and white straps mean that the design is not too overwhelming, while a trouser pocket with red stitching adds a playful touch. Available in a small (the Ladies Grip Bag) and a slightly larger version (the Little Weekender Bag), they are the perfect accessory for a sporty lifestyle. The Ladies Purse in dark blue with a red border and team logo on the front offers enough space for money, credit and business cards. The inner lining in the design of the Formula 1 wheel rim is also used on the Ladies Reversible Top and the Reversible Bandana.

The PUMA for BMW Sauber F1 Team Collection 2006 is available from the beginning of the 2006 Formular 1 season at selected BMW dealers, at the racetrack, in PUMA Concept Stores and online in the PitShop at www.bmw-sauber-f1.com.
