Nicely done. Price is a bit steep for a Puma Clyde, but there’s no denying this version is superior to a general release of the model.

Performance and lifestyle used to be two separate categories in the footwear world. There are still shoes obviously made just to be worn on the field, the court, or the track, just as there are shoes only made for the boardroom, the streets, or the club, but for the discerning sneakerhead that is knee-deep in the culture, they want the sneaker that is stylish for the physical and casual activity. Plenty of brands have tried to chase that magical pair that appeals to all for years to varying degrees of success. PUMA appears to have found it with the PUMA IGNITE Evoknit.

As one of the main sponsors of Complexcon that included a pretty wide space that was also in partnership with Foot Locker and an endorsement deal with The Weeknd, it’s clear that PUMA believes in the silhouette. Talking with Jeff Staple at the show gave me some more insight as to what the IGNITE Evoknit as the potential to become for PUMA and between Staple’s pair and the future of the shoe sans ankle collar, it will be a 2017 to watch for the sneaker.

But before we head into next year, here’s a look back at the various pairs of IGNIT Evoknits we have received in the past few months at the KoF Offices, including one from Complexcon.

That sole is huge. It’s made for Winter weather, so I guess it works. Personally though, I don’t see myself wearing a pair.

The New York Knicks suffered an L to the hands of the Toronto Raptors last night, but perhaps this new colorway of the Puma Clyde will bring their spirits up a bit.

Inspired by the team where Walter “Clyde” Frazier spent the majority of his career, this new colorway of the Puma Clyde features an orange suede upper with royal blue accents on the Puma stripe branding and the heel tab. Other details include a gold “10” on the heels and gold “Puma Clyde” branding on the side panels. Finishing things off is a white rubber midsole to complete the Knicks theme.

You can look for this Knicks colorway of the Puma Clyde to arrive at select Puma retailers in the near future.

No doubt that this is a must-have sneaker if you’re a Knicks fan. The sneaker of a living legend in his own team’s colors is like a match made in heaven.

The silhouette is an appealing design in general and these colorways are pretty versatile. I’m more for the tan/orange pair.

After dropping some 1-to-1 reproductions of the shoe in original colors earlier this year, PUMA is back this fall with another special release honoring the iconic Clyde. Walt Frazier’s landmark signature hoops shoe now appears in a fitting orange suede upper with royal blue accents, a reference to the New York Knicks who he helped lead to two NBA championships in his tenure with the team. The high-quality take on the Clyde features special details like Frazier’s #10 in gold foil on each heel and special attention to accuracy on the overall shape of the shoe to match the original version from the 1970’s. The PUMA Clyde “Knicks” releases at select retailers globally on Friday, November 18th.

Taiwan’s PHANTACi recently linked up with New Balance to release a collaboration that celebrated the sneaker retailer’s 10 year anniversary. Now they’re doing the same thing with Puma. Here’s a look at both pairs that make up the PHANTACi x Puma R698 10th Anniversary collab.

Both pairs of the Puma R698 are constructed out of a combination of smooth, perforated and tumbled leather. Creating some material contrast are the hits of suede that help give the shoes even more of a premium motif. Additional features on the shoe include the metallic stars noted on the speckled panel near the pink Puma branding on the heel. More Pink hits are found on the Trinomic midsole cushion system while an icy blue outsole is placed below. Dropping tomorrow at PHANTACi, which pair are you feeling the most?

Really nice, the only thing I could do without would be the stars on the heel, aside from that, the materials used on the shoe are really dope.

PHANTACi has been one of Taiwan’s go-to sneaker spots for the better part of a decade, but now the boutique is making 10 years in the footwear business official with a special collaboration with the head-turning retro running mode, the Puma R698.

Starting this year, PHANTACi has decided to restard from scratch by inviting a number of high-quality respected brands to collaborate for the upcoming 2017 release slate. The Puma R698 utilizes two different colorways. The first is an inviting, clean white with accents of metallic silver stars on the heel. An inspirational “Never give up” lands on the vibrant pink outsole for a flashy finish. Also available is a microperforated black leather rendition featuring timbled accents for a truly one-of-a-kind aesthetic. The same metallic stars are featured on a speckled heel panel while subdued accents of pink hit on the legendary Trinomic midsole cushion system. A more traditional icy blue outsole features the same words.

Check out more detailed teaser shots of the upcoming PHANTACi Puma R698 collaboration and we’ll keep you updated on a potential stateside release in the near future right here on Sneaker News.

It starts off with a Black suede upper that is quickly overlooked by the vibrant Japanese wave pattern noted on the side panels. Ichibay, who designed the artwork, says that it is inspired by the traditional ukiyo-e woodblock prints from the 17th to 19th centuries known across the world as one of the country?s greatest artistic exports. Black laces, oriental lettering on the heel and a White sole round out the looks of the shoe. The atmos x Puma Clyde Tattoo releases at select retailers on November 12th for $120, are you looking to pick up a pair? Let us know in the comments below.
