Puma Unveils Tyrese Haliburton's Second Signature Shoe, the Hali 2, at $130

Puma unveiled the Hali 2, Tyrese Haliburton's second signature basketball shoe, at Indiana Pacers Media Day, with the "Thermal Vision" colorway set to launch December 4, 2026, at $130 in adult sizes. Sports Illustrated reported the launch details.

Puma's Hali 2 Design and Retail Rollout

The Hali 2 was designed with footwear designer Salehe Bembury and carries Haliburton's "0 Doubt" mentality, according to Puma. Puma said the shoe uses a streamlined upper with fewer layers to reduce weight while keeping lockdown, a nitrogen-infused NITRO foam midsole, and a high-abrasion clear rubber outsole for traction.

The "Thermal Vision" colorway features bold midsole gradients and dynamic Puma branding. Puma will sell the shoe at Foot Locker, Dick's Sporting Goods, PUMA.com and the PUMA mobile app. The Thermal Vision release is the first of several colorways Puma has scheduled over the next year.

Dick's Sporting Goods said its 2026 holiday deals run November 22 to December 5, with up to 30% off Nike and 60% off baseball bats, according to PR Newswire. The retailer's Deal Days return December 6 to 11 on its app and website.

Haliburton signed a signature sneaker deal with Puma in October 2024 after starting his career with Nike. He wore player-exclusive Puma colorways before debuting his first signature sneaker in the 2025 NBA Finals, where he made a Game 1 winner. Haliburton missed the 2025-26 NBA season, but Stephen Curry and retired Pacers legend Reggie Miller wore the first shoe on court.

Puma's NITRO Platform Beyond Basketball

Puma opened the PUMA NITRO Lab in Los Angeles and launched the Ultra NITRO 7 football boot at 180g in June 2026, according to akta.pro company records. The boot was the first use of NITRO foam technology in football footwear. Puma's NITRO platform also underpins its running line, including the FAST-RB NITRO Elite 2 supershoe with two fused carbon-fibre plates and a 55mm heel stack that the company unveiled in November 2026, T3 reported.
