My New Shoes Have a Back Story

"...definitely the most legendary and popular Puma style of all time, the Puma Suede has a place in history and in almost every Hall of Fame. As many sneaker aficionados know, the newly released PUMA suede shoe was worn by Olympic Athlete Tommie Smith at the 1968 Olympics when he took the Olympic awards podium with one fist held defiantly in the air. Since then, the Suede has been widely regarded as the seminal B-Boy shoe and was also made famous by early break dancing crews, such as the New York City Breakers and the Rock Steady Crew, who rocked them religiously at early Hip-Hop jams in New York City. Today, they're just as cool as ever with a sleek suede upper and durable rubber outsole."
