Saucony x Sneaker Politics Shadow 5000 “Café Du Monde”
Saucony had joined with Sneaker Politics to create a new colourway of the Shadow 5000 that pays homage to Café Du Monde – the famous open air coffee shop in New Orleans.
Established in 1862, Café Du Monde has become a monument for the city and the many tourists that visit each and every year.
The Shadow 5000 “Beignet Brown” colourway mimics the French-style doughnuts with a three-tone brown suede leather and mesh upper adorned with white flecks to mimic dashes of powdered sugar atop the fried dough desserts. The co-branded tongue and vibrant green and white outsoles play respect to colors of Café Du Monde’s patio overhangs.
The Saucony x Sneaker Politics Shadow 5000 “Café Du Monde” will be launching 05/07/19 at The Hip Store online at 08:00am and in Leeds from 09:30am.
