Few men are as beloved in New York as Walt “Clyde” Frazier. Winning two NBA Championships with the Knicks is enough to achieve basketball immortality, but add nearly four decades of broadcasting on top of that? Generations of fans and players alike agree; Clyde deserves all the flowers.

In celebration of Walt’s 80th birthday, KITH founder and Knicks Creative Director Ronnie Fieg has crafted a limited Friends & Family run of his signature shoe. The PUMA Clyde, one of the first ever signature basketball models alongside the adidas Jabbar, is here taken in black patent leather with oxford-style toe box perforations. For co-branding, Fieg x Clyde stamps appear on the tongue, heel, and insoles.

Ronnie Fieg’s Friends & Family PUMA Clyde is limited to just 80 pairs and will not see a public release. However, if you’re itching for some content by the hoops legend, Fieg and Clyde sat down for an interview documenting his career journey. You can check that out here.
