PUMA and Flau’jae Johnson Drop Two Camouflage Player-Exclusive Shoes for March Madness

PUMA and LSU guard Flau’jae Johnson are releasing a two-shoe player-exclusive pack timed for March Madness, with the All‑Pro NITRO 2 Flau’jae PE priced at $140 and the Majesty Flau’jae PE priced at $90. Sports Illustrated lists availability at PUMA.com, the PUMA app, PUMA Flagship stores in New York City and Las Vegas, Foot Locker, Kids Foot Locker, and Champs Sports, and most outlets report a Friday, March 13 release.

The All‑Pro NITRO 2 Flau’jae PE is positioned as the on-court performer. The Mirror notes the model uses PUMA’s NITRO SQD Foam for cushioning and responsiveness, and JustWomen’s Sports and Sole Retriever describe the upper in tan and brown camouflage with bright pink and green accents. JustWomen’s Sports also reports a custom No. 4 green four‑finger hand logo on the tongue and the bottom sole of the All‑Pro NITRO 2. The All‑Pro’s $140 retail places it among PUMA’s premium NITRO-cushioned basketball options in the current roster.

The Majesty Flau’jae PE is the lifestyle offering, built in smooth leather with tonal stitching and a camouflaged Formstrip that Sports Illustrated and The Mirror say nods to Johnson’s life and legacy off the court. SI frames the Majesty as “from the hardwood to the stage,” speaking to Johnson’s dual identity as a collegiate guard and a musician; the Majesty’s $90 retail positions it as an accessible off-court staple meant to carry the camo motif beyond game day.

The camouflage pattern across both models explicitly honors Johnson’s late father, rapper Camoflauge, a narrative repeated in local Baton Rouge coverage from WAFB and WBRZ. Johnson framed the project as personal when quoted by Fox8live: “Legacy is really important to me, and that’s something I put into these shoes.” Fox8live also relays her mother’s advice: “[M]y mother always told me, ‘You’ll never be able to fill his shoes, but you can take your own steps and build your own legacy.’” JustWomen’s Sports preserved an earlier Andscape remark about PUMA’s approach to her career: “They were very intrigued not only [about] basketball, but my music side, too. That was really important to me, because some people try to box you in. Puma was like, ‘Ain’t no box. Ain’t no cage.’” PUMA signed Johnson to a multi‑year NIL deal in September 2022 and has featured her in marketing since.

Reporting on timing and prior player-exclusives varies. The majority of outlets list the pack as a March 13 drop tied to the collegiate tournament; JustWomen’s Sports published a January piece that cited a February 6 date for the All‑Pro NITRO 2 and claimed Johnson’s 2024 PE debut was not consumer-available, a detail that differs from other coverage. Expect the camo pack to arrive broadly through PUMA’s channels and major retailers for March Madness, with the All‑Pro built for game-day traction and the Majesty designed to translate the same camouflage tribute into everyday wear.
