German sneaker shop Afew looks to a local icon of their hometown of Dusselfdorf for inspiration for their upcoming Saucony collaboration. The 18th century writer, poet, scholar, and artist Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is honored on Afew’s edition of the Saucony nous offre 4 versions premium de la, which actually takes specific inspiration from the architecture of the Goethe marat in Dusseldorf, located near Afew’s storefront. The premium suede version of the Saucony Mens Jazz 81 Sneakers in Castlerock Blue White takes the rose and grey colors from the building, with some of Goethe’s poems printed on the heel panels, insole, and laces, and his silhouette on the tongue. The shoe is completed with special packaging including a special box, two sets of additional laces, an exclusive bookmark, and a booklet with information about the special project.
The Afew x Saucony nous offre 4 versions premium de la “Goethe” will release in limited quantities in-store at Afew on October 14th on a first come, first served basis. Additional pairs will be available online via a raffle, which you can sign up for here.
