The Puma Blaze of Glory has taken on the continued trend of paying homage to various countries. Especially with the recent 2008 Summer Olympic Games showcasing the various countries of the world, the attention is fresh in people’s minds. This particular model is inspired by Mexico, specifically the 1968 Summer Olympic Games in Mexico City, Mexico. This is the one and only time the Olympics were held in Mexico, making for a special time. The Mexican culture is seen in the laces and sockliner, while the number “68” is embedded on the tongue. Along with the speckled midsole, Puma Trinomic technology, 1980’s retro look, these are a must grab. You can find these now at select Puma retailers including Finishline.com.
