Walt Frazier. Clyde. Let me sidebar to a story real quick: Growing up, my dad shared stories of that cat that the league christened "Clyde". He was slick off-court - stunting in mink coats over designer suits on the daily. He would rock broad-brimmed Borsalino hats similar to Clyde Barrow's (hence the monicker), and he would pull up in a Rolls-Royce like a true boss. But once he crossed the hallowed threshold of Madison Square Garden, or any arena for that matter, he would ditch his flamboyant smile for serial killer eyes. He was not to be fooled with. He immediately transformed to a very intense competitor.
This gets thrown around a lot nowadays - but son, this Knickerbocker got swag. Not just swag, but OG status swag. He was on it generations ahead of everybody! He was so ill with it that he was one of the first pro ballplayers to get his own signature shoe! The "CLYDE" was a product of PUMA's athletic innovation and image marketing genius. Years after his tenure as a pro, Frazier's CLYDES had become such an icon that it helped change the global street culture. From a basketball court staple to b-boy essential; it shaped Hip-Hop - both the culture and the lifestyle - to what it is now.
Back to the topic: Continuing the legacy that Walt Frazier established, Puma and LA streetwear giant UNDFTD join forces once again to create another reincarnation of The Clyde. Donning the (almost) same silhouette, but with a swagged out SNAKESKIN formstripe.
