On My Feet Today – PUMA Clyde Script

I was lucky to have the good people at Footaction send me a pair of one of their newest additions to the store shelves. The PUMA Clyde ‘Script’ is a variation of the classic PUMA Clyde or PUMA Suede with a scripted ‘Clyde’ on the side panel.

PUMA obviously did so and the Clyde has been a regular part of sneaker culture in some form ever since. Retail is $65 and it uses some really nice materials, including real leather, which you probably won’t see on another shoe at that price point.
