Released somewhat in the shadows at the start of the season, while Scoot Henderson had a more complicated rookie year than expected, the Scoot Zeros doesn't intend to give up just yet! After releasing a “Sunset Blow” colorway to ring in the beginning of summer, here's a new version called “Bluemazing” that might find its audience.
The upper comes in navy blue at the back, black at the front with a “Formstrip” stripe on the outer upper between blue and orange-red. For the sole, the intermediate foam rests on an outer covering mainly turquoise blue with a red stripe. The rendering is quite original, and the whole rather successful.
The eighth colorway of the Portland point guard's first signature shoe, the “Bluemazing” version is available on Basket4Ballers at a price of 110 euros.
Our verdict on the Puma Scoot Zeros
Like Scoot Henderson's rookie year, the Scoot Zeros is struggling to get going. However, the qualities are there, for the player as well as for his first signature shoe.
The shoe is not exceptional on a technical level, typical of an entry-level model sold from 110 euros, with a “minimal” sole which nevertheless offers a fairly good compromise, and a design made to attract attention.
We recognize here a certain inspiration born from the “success story” of LaMelo Ball with the MB.03, which Puma tried to transcribe with the Blazers rookie. The result may not have been there, but this “Zero” version will undoubtedly benefit in the future, in the continuation of the collaboration between Puma and Scoot Henderson, while hoping to see the latter get closer to a destiny of “franchise-player” rather than sixth man.
