It is said that opposites attract, but not in the case of this collaboration. On the one hand is Puma with its all time cool Clyde, long associated with the early days of hip hop and break dancing, on the other is the Coogi brand, which is intensely associated with ’90s era hip hop, specifically rapper B.I.G.
The coming together of the two is a sneaker for the ages with a Clyde sneaker featuring a woven, kaleidoscope Coogi upper each shoe’s knitting pattern is slightly different than the next so that no two shoes are exactly alike.
The Coogi Clyde will hit retailers including Foot Locker, Kith and Nice Kicks on March 9, 2017, a drop that will be followed by an assortment of apparel later in spring 2017.
