First Look: The New Clyde ‘Dressed’ Pack by PUMA




PUMA adds another slick number to your sneaker rotation with a new iteration of the Clyde Dressed pack. With the classic sneaker’s comeback after five years, the Clyde has been given a stylish update inspired by the legendary sports icon and sultan of swag, Walt “Clyde” Frazier.

The PUMA Clyde has been established as a sneaker icon since the 70’s. Today the shoe sees no signs of slowing down in popularity constantly refreshed with new colourways and textures. Influencing this latest drop is Walt Frazier’s impeccable sartorial style.

Basketball legend Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier was the league’s original fashion icon and first player to make the fashion magazines with his distinct classy style. He was known for his feathered fedoras, blinged out walking sticks and a plethora of custom pieces from suits to alligator briefcases. Not to mention his PUMAs.


PUMA pays homage to the famous star who brought the PUMA Clyde into the limelight with the second Clyde Dressed pack release. PUMA pulled out all the stops when it came to the attention to detail. The celebratory sneaker is decked in a premium quilted leather upper reminiscent of the flamboyant basketball star’s extravagant leather cases that he brought to the games.  It’s finished off with gold Clyde lettering etched on the lace tips. The Dressed Pack comes in Black and White colour ways.

The sneakers are available in-store now for R2 299 at PUMA SELECT Bree Street, Cape Town and Braamfontein, Johannesburg.
