REFORM
OUR PURPOSE
Some say the world is changing too fast. We say it’s not changing fast enough. Injustice. Discrimination. Inequality. These issues are not slowing down. So neither will we. Over the years, PUMA has partnered with athletes and ambassadors who have raised their voices to support universal equality. Individuals like former Olympian Tommie Smith, who inspired all races, religions, and nations to join together around justice and acceptance for all. In 2018, we established #REFORM to honor the 50th anniversary of Tommie Smith’s Silent Gesture, pushing for equity, equality, and human rights for all. To support leaders and organizations who inspire real change with real action.
CELEBRATE TOMMIE SMITH’S LEGACY
In 1968 at the Mexico City World Games, Tommie Smith stepped onto the podium, raised his fist, and changed the course of history. The Icons of Unity collection represents PUMA and Tommie’s ongoing dedication to striving for peace, justice, equality, and dignity. These four pillars are translated into bold graphics and colors in this hopeful, powerful streetwear collection.
We’re partnering with The Trevor Project
to take #REFORM into the locker room.
Our goal: safer and more inclusive environments
for LGBTQIA+ youth athletes.
The time is now – are you in?
