In 1973, at the request of "Walt Clyde Frazier", who would later become a Hall of Famer in the basketball world, the width was wider than the conventional PUMA shoes based on "CRACK" to accommodate basketball. The PUMA CLYDE was born as the first signature model in the history of basketball, using a new type of sole.

The model name "CLYDE" is the nickname of Walt Frazier, who was fond of Walt Frazier's playing style of stealing the ball from opponents and scoring points, and the fashion style of the main character of the movie that was popular at the time. The shoes he wears have also come to be known by the nickname "CLYDE." After that, "CLYDE" came to be worn by other basketball players by announcing many color variations, and it also became popular in street culture and hip-hop scenes off the court.
