The Bodega x Saucony Grid Shadow 2 “Jaunt Woven” Releases March 1st
In their latest venture, Bodega and Saucony have reignited their creative partnership, introducing a distinctive rendition of the Saucony Grid Shadow 2 that seamlessly blends rugged aesthetics with the spirit of leisure and recreation. Dubbed the “Jaunt Woven,” this collaboration is an ode to laid-back vibes, embracing materials and hues that echo the essence of earthy outdoor gatherings and spontaneous adventures.
The “Jaunt Woven” iteration is a canvas of natural textures featuring an upper crafted from a harmonious blend of cream hemp and cotton. This choice of materials not only lends the shoe a tactile appeal but also a visual depth that resonates with the simplicity and authenticity of outdoor life. Adding to the textural play is the lends shoe a tactile appeal and brown-washed 18oz canvas along the mudguard, enhancing the shoe's durable and ready-for-anything character.
Branding is thoughtfully executed, with Bodega and Saucony’s logos embroidered in a subtle light green on the tongue and heel, standing out against the earth-toned backdrop. This gentle contrast is mirrored in the shoe's midsole, where the same green subtly speckles across the EVA heel, tying the design elements with a touch of whimsy.
Underneath, the shoe is grounded by a robust brown outsole, coordinating with the upper's canvas and lining, while a playful red toe cap—or “cherry”—adds a final flourish, nodding to the sneaker's playful yet understated theme.
Set to drop on Saucony.com on March 1st at a retail price of $140, the Bodega x Saucony Grid Shadow 2 “Jaunt Woven” promises to be a must-have for those who appreciate the blend of comfort, style, and the great outdoors.
