Puma Suede Tommy Smith Limited Edition

Profile: Break into the shoe that has them dancing in the streets. Definitely the most well-known and popular of all Puma shoes, this design classic rightly deserves its place in public affection and in every Hall of Fame. Equally loved by various trainer faithfuls, the Suede has even been involved in historical matters on a global scale. At the 1968 Olympics, the shoe (released the same year) was worn by Tommy Smith, the prominent equal-rights activist athlete, when he made his famous "Black Power" salute. In cultural terms the Suede can be credited as the first shoe of "BBoyism".
The shoe was made famous by Hip-Hop crews, such as New York City Breakers and the Rock Steady Crew, who wore them constantly at early Hip-Hop jams in New-York City. The Tommie Smith pack is a tribute one of PUMA's beloved athletes and equal-rights activist. Features include a tonal repeating fist graphic print referencing his memorable Olympic podium salute from the 1968 Mexico City Olympic games, gold medal emboss graphic in the FOT and signature sockliner graphic.
