Puma Clyde Ice Cube
The Puma Clyde is back in a very unusual colorway. The Puma Clyde Ice Cube combines an olive green upper with ice blue accents.
Though the pairing is quite unorthodox, it actually works well. The transculent blue sole and ice blue laces provide a splash of light colors to what would have been a drab shoe.
You can get these at local Puma dealers across the country.

If you want to represent California, check out this latest release from PUMA. Called the PUMA Cali Woody, these shoes bring the wonders of California to your feet.
This style of shoe, known as PUMA California, was first seen in 1982 but now PUMA is bringing them back with three new versions. The Cali Woody is one of these versions.
Once you glance at the kicks, you realize that the shoes were made to resemble a classic station wagon. Additional California flavor was added by the palm trees, a surf board and the state outline.
If you want to get these shoes, you will need to pick up your pair at the PUMA store in Santa Monica. With only 200 pairs in existence, these shoes are sure to be highly sought after once they are released on February 1st.

When the Yo! MTV Raps collection released in September, it was very well received in the United States. Now the collection is headed to Europe.
Footlocker Europe is releasing some colorways that are exclusive to them only. This edition of the Big Daddy Kane pictured here features the large link gold chain across the back, like the U.S. version. However it is bright red instead of jet black. I actually like it better in red!

Puma has released the Puma Suede Repeat and Puma First Round Repeat. Each of these sneakers comes in both a baby blue and black colorway.
These shoes feature suede uppers that have the name of the shoe repeated lightly over the suede. This a subtle touch that makes these shoes distinct.
The simplicity of these sneakers are what makes them unique. Many modern shoes have too much glitz and embellishments, but these remain classic and elegant.

The Puma First Round is one of my favorite shoes from Puma. The classic style of this high top is ideal for those liking an old school look.
In recent months, we’ve seen several interesting versions of the First Round emerge from collaborations with No Mas and Alife. Now, this Orange/Cream colorway has been released from Puma.
This shoe is relatively basic but it has a lot of style. The orange suede is paired with a nice cream to give this sneaker a simple yet bold look.
If you are in Toronto, you can grab them from DaZone. Look for them to hit shelves of other retailers very soon.

Overkillshop has just received the latest from Puma, the Lena Shanghai Tang List. The Puma Lena is a very popular shoe among the ladies although a limited footwear line.

The shoe features a very unique look using bright colors and a lot of detail of the Chinese culture that Shanghai Tang wanted to inject. The black suede is combined with satin-like material to create a new look and style. I personally really like the way these turned out. Although it does seem a bit loud, the shoe makes a modern statement and is easy to wear. Check these out now in the limited release.
