The London shop Footpatrol presents its collaboration with the Saucony brand. This colab has given birth to a Saucony Shadow 6000 “Only in Soho.” Footpatrol is inspired by the famous Soho and retranscribe the atmosphere of the district known for sex shops, elaborate night life and the flamboyant film industry. The bright blue and royal suede wrapping around the toe-box and throughout the shoe and heel represent the plethora of bright neon lights that flood Soho’s streets and alleyways, the red 3M pops on the lateral side & heel are a nod to the ‘other’ red lights which illuminate various windows once night falls. The dark upper symbolises the underbelly of Soho, the ‘unseen’, the hidden behind closed doors mystery… We’ve opted for a smooth & luxuriously full black suede upper, and continued this with black 3M pops on the medial side of the shoe. Leather lining around the heel with the ‘Only in Soho’ logo on the footbed, a splattered white midsole for the grimy side streets, with a black outer-sole. Finished off with a mash-up of the Saucony Originals and the Footpatrol gas mask logos on the tongue label. The Footpatrol x Saucony “Only in Soho” Shadow 6000 will be available on May 3 in Footpatrol store and by email for all sneaker addicts.
