The silhouettes in general are appealing and the theme is a nice touch for the season. The colorway overall is pretty solid and versatile throughout the year.

When we think of the Puma Basket, most of us typically picture the low top version which has become an iconic silhouette in sneaker history.

But Puma has switched things up a bit for the Fall season as we take a look at the Puma Basket Mid. This isn’t your ordinary Basket Mid though, this version features Gore-Tex technology to protect you from the elements. The upper is constructed out of a Black tumbled leather with a textile tongue, nubuck Puma stripes, perforations on the side panels, and a gum sole.

If you like what you see then you can buy this Puma Basket Mid GTX in Black at select retailers for $150.

I can’t say that I’m fan of the Disc Blaze because I’m just not. The design and lacing system is just something I can’t embrace. I’ll pass on these.

Out of nowhere, the first three colorways of Rihanna’s hit PUMA Fenty Creeper are back?literally a year after they first released.

Check out the Puma Clyde Wraith Pack. It’s easy to see it’s much more luxurious and premium looking compared to your average Puma Clyde, right? Said to be inspired by Walt Frazier’s love for fashion and expensive taste in cars, the Puma Clyde takes on similar aesthetics to match his profile in the fashion department.

Coming in your choice of Black or Cordovan, both pairs are given a glossy finish to match the look of Frazier’s old Rolls Royce Phantom. The patent leather upper paired up with the kurim detailing on the heel give the shoe the premium look and feel Puma was aiming for. A matching tonal sole unit and laces (with lace tips housing #10, Frazier’s #) round out the look of the shoe. Said to be dropping on September 30th at PUMA Lab Powered by Foot Locker, which pair are you going after?

They look pretty clean, especially with the addition of the kurim detailing on the heel. That Cordovan pair is calling my name!

Author’s Take

I’ve yet to see the Puma Ignite EvoKNIT in person but I feel like the shoe has lots of potential thanks to the knitted upper. However, I think it could have looked better if they would have found a way to make it a low-top.

Footwear brands everywhere are taking their tried and true retro silhouettes and revamping them through modern twists that will fit today’s streetwear mentality. German lifestyle giant Puma will be doing just that come Spring 2017 with the re-introduction of the Puma Mostro, a classic 90s silhouette that gets reworked through geometric patterns, a slimmed down sole unit, and more.

When I first saw this shoe I “kinda” liked it, but the more I see it the more it’s growing on me. I hope people sleep on them and I can get them for under retail in the near future.

The latest collaboration between Staple Pigeon and Puma recently dropped. The brand new collection consisted of one pair of the Puma Blaze of Glory and three different pairs of the Puma Suede. Today we take a closer look at the Grey and Peach version of the Puma Suede.

This colorways of the Staple x Puma Suede comes dressed in a suede upper. Giving it its unique motif is the Grey upper being “dipped” with a Peach rear to sort of give you that split-colored look. Additional features include the dual-branded tongue and side panels, the embossed pigeon logo on the side of the heel placed, and the Puma embossed logo on the heel. A two-toned rubber midsole blends in nicely with the upper to complete the theme of the shoe. Available now, pick up your very own pair for $100.
