Tommie Smith was sponsored by Puma in the 1968 Mexico City Olympics when he took home the gold medal in the 200M with a world record time of 19.83 seconds.
He went on to set 7 world records in track and field and then went on to play professional football for the Cincinatti Bengals for one season. He was elected into the track and field hall of fame in 1978.
This is Puma's tribute to Tommie Smith and his achievements in the 1968 Mexico City olympics.
The Gold Puma Clyde trainers feature an embossed 1968 gold medal pattern on a gold leather upper.
The trainers feature Tommie Smith's world record time in the 200M on the tongue and come with a set of 4 laces each with a reference to the 1968 olympics on the tip.
