What would happen if you took Puma’s superb classic runner the R698 and made it into a trail shoe? We have an answer in mid and lowtop form thanks to the Trinomic Trail, and now a new style from the German cat offers an even tighter fusion of rugged boot and R698-ness. The Puma Trinomic High reflects well on the ‘Machts Mit Qualitat’ tongue tags with a sleek but sporty black suede design that should be joined by more colorways for the second half of 2013.
