Two new Saucony Shadow 5000's have arrived here at Attitude this week, which some of you may recognise! As part of Bodega's 10th anniversary celebrations, it has delved into its archives and pulled out these classics from 2010, which first appeared as part of the Saucony Elite series. First up we have the bolder Blue/Grey colourway.
The upper of the shoe is almost fully suede, with a smooth grey suede running around the front of the shoe and a rich blue suede composing most of the midfoot and heel. Also on the grey toebox we see a soft and spongy mesh which makes the shoe much more breathable, further aided by grey mesh hits at the heel. The tongue comes in a blue suede, offset with a purple woven label featuring the winged shoe graphic Saucony is known for. This all sits atop an off-white midsole and gum outsole, the former working to ease the colour transition into the dark outsole.
EVA and PU Ionic cushioning supports the shoe nicely, providing great impact protection under the whole of the foot and letting you wear the shoes in comfort for long periods of time. The descending shape of the sole means you roll off the board of your foot with each step, a classic running shoe feature that only further enhances the comfortable nature of the shoes.
Saucony's AW16 collection, full of great colourways and even better materials, is available both online and in-store here at Attitude Inc. right now.
