Saucony tends to stay close to the food world when it comes to creating playful sneakers inspired by tasty concepts. Previously we’ve seen the brand serve up an iteration inspired by avocado toast, a product that channels the vibe of a pineapple and a sneaker inspired by a food fight, and now the American sportswear icon has whipped up a brand new Shadow 6000 instalment that’s influenced by the classic New York cheesecake.
Ingredients from the sugary dessert are incorporated across the entire upper of the shoes. Its perforated leather build is generated with an off-white exterior, and this comes complemented by rosy pink overlays that are located on the quarter panels and the mudguards. The rear windows, Saucony logos, tongues and laces all come dripped in red to mimic the delectable strawberry glaze topping that is often associated with the post-dinner treat. Additionally, actual strawberry icons are placed onto the tongues which host Saucony branding as well as in all-over fashion across the insoles. Down below, the yellow and brown bottoms are designed to portray graham cracker crust.
Saucony Originals launches exclusively in India through Superkicks and the first serving comes in the form of the Shadow 6000 NY Cheesecake, which you can purchase here.
