This year marks the comeback of the iconic sneaker, the PUMA Clyde. Named after the legendary Walt “Clyde” Frazier, the first basketball player to have a sneaker named after him, the PUMA Clyde will forever be engrained in sports and pop culture history for decades to come.
Originally created in 1973 in an era when sports stars began to impressively impact on popular culture. It has maintained a strong presence throughout the changing times, being adopted as sneaker of choice by the hip hop stars, skateboarders, B-boys and musicians leading the punk movement of the 90s. Its many important cultural links and rich sports past makes it a revered staple for today’s sneaker collectors.
The Puma Clyde Wraith Pack will launch in two colors, Black and Burgundy. Each has patent leather across the uppers while the heel has textured overlay. On the sides is Metallic stripe, 3D logos on the tongue and Walt Frazier’s number 10 on the heel.
You will be able to purchase the pack on September 30th, 2016 only at Puma Lab by Foot Locker retail stores.
