With the success the Cheech Wizard PUMA Clydes had back in 2007, PUMA once again called out to Mark Bodé to design a pair of sneakers to honor the artwork of his father, Vaughn Bodé. Mark and PUMA this time put together two pairs of the PUMA Mid in what is called ‘Da Lizard Pack’, a pack paying tribute to a lizard character named ‘Da Lizard’ that Vaughn Bodé created in the 1950′s.
Both of the PUMA Mid’s in Da Lizard Pack feature the Da Lizard character embroidered on the side panels and on the insole and lining. The signature of Bode is included in various places on the sneakers such as on the tongue, next to the Puma logo on the side of the upper, on the back of the tongue, on the insoles and beneath the translucent sole. Both pairs will be available at a handful of PUMA retailers on May 16th along with a few extra Bodé goodies to accompany the release of the sneakers.
Follow the jump for a closer look at each pair, along with a list of retailers that will be stocking the sneakers on May 16th.
