Puma Clyde Court Disrupt Review
Pros:
Great upper materials
Eye-catching design
Cons:
Inconsistent traction
Performance of the Puma Clyde Court Disrupt:
The Puma Clyde Court Disrupt is Puma's first basketball sneaker in 20 years and it's a real eye-catcher!
The traction is inspired by the original Clyde sneaker and takes a while to break in and could offer more consistency.
The foam-based cushioning is very comfortable and provides a nice mix of responsiveness and impact protection.
The most outstanding feature of this hoops shoe is the good-looking, comfortable, and very supportive knit upper.
Overall, the Puma Clyde Court Disrupt is a very solid shoe that brings a breath of fresh air to the world of performance basketball shoes.

The Puma Clyde Court Disrupt wound up being one of the more fun models to play in this year (so far). Not in the Top 5 discussion but you receive solid performance and cushion for the price.

It's really impressive what Puma was able to do in their first basketball sneaker in a long time. The materials and fit are absolutely A1, the support and traction, however, could use a little tweaking.

The performance is middle of the road. They won't stay in my rotation but they might work well as a big-man shoe or as an outdoor shoe.

Welcome back Puma! This is a strong shoe that is only let down by the lacking ankle support and bad traction on dusty courts.

These shoes look and feel amazing. The materials soft and premium, unlike anything else for the price. On foot, the cushion setup did not feel very soft or bouncy but it was very responsive. On clean courts, after some break in time, the traction was good. They did, however, pick up dust rather quickly so I had to wipe them a lot. After about a year of playing in them the outsole was only minimally fraying around the heel and forefoot.

The Puma Clyde Court Disrupt was actually WAY better than I thought it would be by having tolerable traction and cushion, really comfortable and durable material, and good fit overall. In the end, I recommend this shoe for hoopers of any play style.

The throwback design of the outsole looks nice but didn't get the job done on dusty courts. I had to wipe every time I transitioned from defense to offense.

The foam in the cushioning is caged by a super thick rubber which leads to a clunky heel-to-toe transition. Impact protection is decent, but the court feel is not great because you are very high-off-the-ground.

I liked the cushioning a lot! Feels like something in-between Adidas Boost and Adidas Bounce cushioning with a nice mixture of responsiveness and comfort. Unfortunately, it started bottoming out quickly.
