The 2024 WNBA season is close we can feel it. As a sign that women's hoops are not far away is the newest installment of New York Liberty forward Breanna Stewart's signature sneaker line.

Earlier today, PUMA and Stewart unveiled the Stewie 3 in Paris, France. The latest silhouette pays homage to a tapestry of influences, each contributing to the storyline of the Stewie 3.

Inspired by Stewart's decorated career, the Stewie 3 Dawn features fiery hues and floral details representing her family and journey. As a tribute to Tokyo, the cherry blossom, or Sakura, symbolizes the fleeting beauty of life and the resilience of nature.

Also drawing inspiration from Rio Brazil, specifically the golden trumpet tree’s exquisite floral display. The golden accents on the shoe mirror the coveted gold medal of champions.

At the heart of the Stewie 3 design lies a deep connection to Spain. Symbolized by prominent red carnation blooms that adorn its surface which serve as a tribute to Stewarts spouse, Marta. 

One of the most captivating elements, the incorporation of original blooming seed patterns that cascade gracefully across the outsole of the shoe silhouette, pay homage to Stewart's daughter, Ruby and Stewart's desire to grow the game.

“It’s an honor to be able to incorporate part of my story into the Stewie 3: the people I love, and some of the places that have been integral to my journey. I’m excited to share my third signature shoe with the world, and what better way than to unveil it in Paris, host city to this Summer’s Olympics,” said Stewart.

An MVP-worthy addition to your game, the Stewie 3 Dawn is engineered for performance – featuring a high-abrasion outsole for added grip and a dual-density Profoam+ midsole for targeted cushioning. This means more energy return and stability when driving the lane, crashing the backboard, or taking it coast-to-coast.

The Stewie 3 Dawn retails for $125 and is set to launch on May 14 on PUMA.com, the PUMA mobile app, at the PUMA NYC Flagship store and at Dick’s Sporting Goods and Champs Sports. Stay locked into FanNation Kicks for all your sneaker news from the sports world.
