Tyrese Haliburton reveals inspiration behind new Puma signature shoes

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton unveiled his first signature shoes with Puma, named Puma Hali 1 'Troy Bolton' PE. The design draws inspiration from Zac Efron's movie 'High School Musical,' which holds sentimental value for Haliburton as it marks the first film he and his wife, Jade Jones, watched together. Haliburton missed the entire 2025-26 NBA season due to a torn Achilles but has made a full recovery and is set to return shortly. The release date for the sneakers has not yet been announced, but they are expected to be worn during the upcoming regular season.
