Sporty, colourful and spirited autumn collection: Mercedes-Benz Collection presents its sports fashion in cooperation with PUMA

Stuttgart. Sportiness is just as much part of Mercedes-Benz DNA as a passion for design and technology. Together with PUMA, one of the world's best-known and largest manufacturers of sporting items,
Mercedes-Benz is now bringing a ladies' collection to market that combines fresh colours and innovative materials with outstanding comfort. A good mood - even in not so favourable weather - is also ensured by the colourful umbrellas as well as shoppers and suitcases in bright colours.

In PUMA's new ladies' collection for Mercedes-Benz, the big cat stands for unrestrained dynamism and the star for fashionable finesse. Whether for golf, jogging, yoga or hiking, the both functional and attractive shirts, jackets and trousers are the perfect recreational companions. The peach-coloured Functional shirt with wrestler top follows the wearer's every movement and optimally conducts moisture away via dryCELL technology and slightly colour-contrasting side mesh inserts. Thanks to dryCELL technology and Performance Fit, the Golf top and the Golf polo shirt in fuchsia colour cut a good figure when teeing-off. The sleeveless top with an upright collar and zipper has the PUMA logo on the left hip and the Mercedes star on the back of the neck. The polo shirt with a 5-button closure has the PUMA logo is on the left of the chest and the star on the sleeve. The shirts go together perfectly with the black ¾-tight Ladies' Sport Pants with a flexible drawstring waist. Reflecting imprints on the front and rear also enhance safety at night, and valuables such as keys can be carried in the zip compartment at the rear.

The Golf sweater with ¼-zipper in light and dark grey is super-lightweight and quick-drying. It is made from the innovative material evoKNIT, which is seamless and regulates warmth particularly effectively. Ventilation features in the heat zones additionally ensure optimum temperature management. Two water-repellent wind jackets with hoods round off the PUMA collection for Mercedes-Benz. Eye-catching in any weather, the silver-coloured wind jacket excels with a drawstring-adjustable waist and laser cuts on the back for good ventilation. The plain, black Golf wind jacket derives its flair from white inserts on the sleeves, seam, hood, and zipper and side pockets. Both jackets feature windCELL technology with a Performance Fit cut, making them perfectly suited to sporty activities in the open air.

Guaranteed to brighten the mood in dull, rainy weather - the two-tone Stick umbrellas are available in red/orange, orange/yellow, petrol/mint and lilac/elder. The guest umbrellas with automatic, colour-contrasting extension of all the cover sections are of high quality, with a steel stick and fibre-glass rails, and their 'windproof' grade also enables them to withstand stormy gusts. The Mercedes star is tonally imprinted on the stretch material, and is repeated as an emblem on the hook handle.

Plenty of space for sports accessories and much else is provided by the spacious polyester Shopper with real leather highlights and full-coverage embroidered Mercedes-Benz stars. It is available in the strong colours of cherry tomato and nebulus blue, and features a large main compartment, various practical interior compartments, including a removable cosmetics bag. Also available for the weekend excursion or even longer journeys is the Lite-Box suitcase by Samsonite for Mercedes-Benz. In addition to classic black, these trolleys come in three sizes and are also available in denim blue and bright hyacinth red. The functional interior fittings with elasticated cross-straps and two dividers, free-running double wheels, a TSA lock and a shoe and laundry bag leave no globetrotter's wish unanswered.

Wonderfully feminine and at the same time sporty, the Sport Fashion M3 ladies' chronograph and the Prague key chain also make perfect presents for active ladies. The dial, ceramic face and calf leather strap of the chronograph are in white, while the stainless steel housing and the inserts on the dial and hands are in rosé gold. This gentle contrast is further enhanced by the Swarovski^® crystals on the hour marks. The watch has a diameter of 39 mm and a quartz movement, and is waterproof to 10 ATM. The stylistically matching key chain consists of a mother-of-pearl emblem with a rosé gold stainless steel surround and a likewise rosé gold Mercedes star at its centre. At the other end of the approx. 10 cm long chain there is a keyring with an easy-opening fastener and three small wear rings for rapid replacement of individual keys.
