Saucony Shadow 5000 "Forest / Tan"

The return of the Saucony Shadow 5000 brings the beloved Shadow line to the masses once more! This Shadow 5000 “Forest / Tan” rendition gives you a colour scheme that never goes out of style anytime and anywhere.

First introduced as a performance running trainer, the Saucony Shadow 5000 debuted as the successor of the Saucony Shadow Original. The Saucony Shadow Original leveraged the brand’s name when it comes to running sneakers. Setting a benchmark that the following models, fortunately, lived up to.

The Saucony Shadow 5000 debuted in 1989 and emphasised on performance running. More Saucony Shadow silhouettes arrived in the following years. Back again in Saucony’s lifestyle footwear catalogue, the sneaker now focuses on style and comfort.

Mesh makes up the body of the shoe, while suede and leather adorn the overlays, side panels, as well as the Saucony logo. The lightweight build-up adds to the overall responsiveness of runners. The padded heel panel hugs the foot to aid the speed lace eyelets for a secure fit.

A dual-density EVA midsole gives you the right balance of comfort and impact protection. The thinner forefoot section brings a softer feel, while the denser midfoot to heel area provides stability and support.

Completing the retro runner is the XT-600 triangular lug rubber traction outsole that’s both grippy and durable to give you a long-lasting grip.

This colourway of the Saucony Shadow 5000 features varying shades of Forest Green on the upper. Tan accents emblazon the laces. The Saucony logo on the sides flaunts a Sail White hue for an old-school finish.

Turquoise and Sail pigments on the midsole add a vintage touch to the 80s Shadow 5000. Below is a reliable gum rubber outsole for a grip that never fails.
