Offspring x Saucony launches fresh collaboration

5^th April 2014

5 April 2014

Footwear giants Offspring and Saucony Originals last night launched their new collaboration and have created two fresh takes on the iconic Shadow 6000 silhouette trainers.

The project, called Running since…’96 pays homage to the opening of Offspring’s first ever store 18 years ago in Covent Garden, and have since opened another 12 shops around the UK. The tagline “We Run” is from the shoeboxes of Saucony back in 1996.

The spectacular trainers’ grey base colour cleverly depicts the cobbled streets of Covent Garden from where it all started, and the colours used take inspiration from Saucony’s archives — beautiful neon pink highlights and tongue detail while turquoise and teal make appearances on both pairs of trainers.

Both pairs are available in men’s and women’s sizes, and both styles ooze the unisex appeal, as neither is too feminine or masculine.

This landmarks a truly historic pair who have worked closely together for years. The Offspring x Saucony Shadow 6000 are available at all Offspring stores nationwide on 5^th April, followed by an online release on 7^th April.
