Saucony unveils new AW25 Styles at Paris Fashion Week

Iconic silhouettes take the spotlight alongside strategic partnerships and collaborations

This week at Paris Fashion Week, Saucony, the leading global performance running lifestyle brand, is showcasing some of its most iconic silhouettes for the upcoming AW25 season.

Among the standout styles making their debut at the Saucony showroom, at 138 Rue Du Temple in Paris, are:

  • V2: First launched in 2011, the ProGrid V2 was originally designed when cross training was being recommended to runners to strengthen muscles and prevent injuries, it introduces forefoot overlasting featuring a full-length EVA midsole for complete cushioning. The upper design provides medial/lateral support and breathability through the pearlized synthetics and air meshes. The outsole was designed with directional and zonal traction for use on different surfaces. Using neutral upper colours with bold pops of colour, the ProGrid V2 offers a sleek and modern look.
  • 586i: Pulled from the archive, the 586i was stylishly designed for comfort and performance on hardwood and synthetic turf. The reimagined shoe features a softer comfort and grip with newly updated outsole as well as fresh updates to materials and colours.
  • ProGrid Guide 7: Originally launched in the early 2000s, the Guide was one of the first shoes to offer customisation to runners. Offering a balance of protection and comfort, this retro style is set for a lifestyle comeback with updated aesthetics and an improved feel on foot.
  • ProGrid Omni 9: First introduced in 2010, the Omni 9 marked a perfect fusion of advanced comfort and stability technology with bold, progressive styling. A fan favourite then, this latest version of the iconic Omni franchise again delivers new progressive styling and enhanced comfort.
  • Trainer 80: Born in 1978, the Trainer 80 didn’t just step onto the scene—it sprinted ahead, integrating high-density EVA foam to revolutionise the running world. Ditching the outdated cardboard layer between the sole and upper delivered a softer, more responsive feel that made every mile smoother. This classic has returned with its retro charm intact and a modern edge. Reimagined for today, the Trainer 80 balances Saucony’s heritage of innovation with street-ready style.

Collaborations:

In addition, a number of Saucony collaborations have been exhibited in Paris this week.

  • Colour Plus Companie x Matrix: In the latest collab with Saucony, Jordan Page of Colour Plus Companie romances the Matrix silhouette, which features premium suede overlays, embroidered heel patches, raw edge tongue finish, multi-coloured trek laces, and more.
  • Foot Patrol x Omni 9: Foot Patrol’s approach for this project was to build a strong colour palette, looking to source inspiration through color with complimentary material specs to match. Steering away from the neutral colour palette that has swarmed the footwear industry as of late, Foot Patrol aims to bring vibrancy back into retro runners as originally intended with extensive research that lead to drawing inspiration from the Earth’s most colourful reptiles – the lizard.
  • Jae Tips x Grid Jazz 9: After an award-winning past two years, Jae Tips and Saucony are back again, this time reimagining the Grid Jazz 9. Timed around Valentine’s Day, the “I Love You But I’m Busy” shoe features a mesh upper, suede overlays, reflective silver accents and more. The launch also brings a kids Shadow 6000 to compliment the design of the Grid Jazz 9.
  • 3sixteen x Peregrine 15: Dubbed the “Gesso”, the calming neutral colours of 3sixteen’s first collaboration with Saucony are inspired by the material that artists use to prepare their canvas for painting. 3sixteen included two hits of hairy suede on the heel and tongue for a textural depth, while leaving most of the other materials of the shoe as designed to ensure its performance remains intact.
