Omni 9 and kids Shadow 6000s in vibrant colorways and design
elements reflective of Jae's signature style
ROCKFORD, Mich., Sept. 13,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Saucony, a leading global
performance running lifestyle brand, today announced that the To-Do
List Collection, its third collaboration with Bronx native Jae Tips, will be available
globally at Saucony.com beginning September
20.
The To-Do List collection features two colorways of the Saucony
ProGrid Omni 9 and, for the first time for Jae Tips, two kids'
Shadow 6000s. As a devout and loving father to two children, both
who were featured in the To-Do List campaign, Jae believes that
inspiration, goal setting, and expression can start as a child, the
same way it did for himself.
"There has been a ton of buzz surrounding the To-Do List
collection since Jae teased it at Paris Fashion Week in June, we're
super excited about our upcoming global launch," said Russ Pope, Saucony's senior brand marketing
manager. "Jae Tips is an integral member of the Saucony family, and
our partnership provides the brand tremendous energy because of our
strong alignment on values, community, and of course product and
design. We feel very fortunate to be able to work together and are
excited to share this drop."
The collection takes inspiration from the Bronx lifestyle, dedicated to the reliable and
comfortable sneakers that help navigate through goals and tackle
every task with ease. Packaged in a custom designed Jae Tips box,
each sneaker in the collection is packed with a vibrant array of
colors, continuing to tell Jae Tips' love for color theory and
feature a custom sock liner, and graphic heel prints and tongue
badging.
"I'm excited to continue the journey with Saucony and bring
these new designs to life," said Jae Tips. "In a big city, with
countless tasks on your to-do list, having a comfortable pair of
shoes is essential. The ProGrid Omni 9 and Shadow 6000s were the
perfect canvas for my creative expression, and I can't wait for
fans to experience it."
The release comes after an award-winning year for Jae Tips and
Saucony, who in 2023 received the FNAA Collaboration Of The Year
award and Collaborator Of The Year from Nice Kicks. As with past releases, Saucony and
Jae Tips have multiple in-store events planned across the country
to meet with Jae Tips and purchase the Jae Tips x Saucony ProGrid
Omni 9 'To-Do List' ahead of the global release. Stops include
Likelihood in Seattle on
September 13, DVSN West in
Denver on September 15, and Kicking It in Austin on September
20.
