The sneaker world operates under certain laws of the universe. Luckily for hoops fans, Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball is not from here. The NBA All-Star has one of the most exciting signature lines that continuously defies gravity with its outrageous colorways.

Earlier today, PUMA, in partnership with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products, officially revealed the highly anticipated MB.03 x Dexter’s Laboratory – the newest addition to Ball’s signature MB.03 franchise. 

The latest MB.03 drop takes 1990s nostalgia to another level in this collaboration with Cartoon Network’s classic Dexter’s Laboratory. The latest cartoon classic-inspired silhouette features extremely bold graphics and textured dayglo details inspired by everyone’s favorite boy genius.

The MB.03 x Dexter’s Laboratory is packed with PUMA’s signature NITROFOAM, for added power on the court, with additional performance tech points throughout, including a full coverage engineered nonslip rubber compound for enhanced durability and traction, while the upper construction uses breathable monomesh for an ultra-supportive lightweight fit.

Alongside the latest MB.03 colorway, PUMA will be releasing an eleven-piece apparel collection that includes a 1990s nostalgia-inspired dime jacket, pants, hoodie, shorts, and graphic tee variations.

The collection retails for $40-$125 and will be available for purchase on Friday, December 22, on PUMA.com, the PUMA mobile app, at the PUMA flagship store, and at Foot Locker, Foot Locker Canada, Champs Sports, Champs Sports Canada, and Kids Foot Locker.
