Puma Palace Guard OG

Are you a basketball enthusiast? Then you obviously know that the Palace Guard’s winning streak in the NBA championships was a defining moment in basketball history. And Puma makes sure that the world of sportswear celebrates these wins with its iconic retro shoe line.

The brand’s latest tribute to the Detroit champions is labeled as Puma Palace Guard OG.

Often dubbed as the descendant of the Uproar Palace Guard, these shoes are considered as a revolutionary take on the former’s classic features. That’s because these sneaker shoes have been modified to meet the requirements of modern sportswear.

With that being said these retro shoes are still decked in the 90s aesthetics with contrasting accents on the insoles and midsoles (a royal blue and red) with hints of cream in the sole unit. This color combination makes the pair a true-blue mascot of the Palace Guards.

But these kicks aren’t just keepsakes. The designers have embedded some nifty features on the sneaker’s design to improve the wearer’s performance on the court. Like the fact that Puma’s trademark tongue has been extended to offer steadiness and balance.

Whereas, the ankle support and fit ensures helps minimize discomfort during matches.

Moreover, the solid lacing system provides additional stability and grip to the shoes. While the unique padding technology and flaps enhance the comfort level. The perforated detailing adds a breathable layer to the already comfy lining. All these features accommodate quick foot movement during the playoffs.

Overall, the old-school details and the practical design make them a favorite amongst basketball players. Whereas, the vibrant colorways give them an edgy exterior that suits the trendy style of the streets. This classic combo of old and new is why they are so popular among players and regular sneaker lovers alike. That’s why you should definitely grab a pair of these slick shoes.
