Such is the trend-setting might of the Wu-Tang Clan that the two-minute appearance of a sweater can spark a commemorative trainer collaboration. We're lucky if our jumpers get so much as a nod of approval...
That said, none of our knitwear could inspire a shoe as attractive as this Packer Shoes and Saucony collaboration - the Grid 9000 ‘Snow Beach’.
Referencing the Polo Ralph Lauren "Snow Beach" pullover worn by Raekwon in Wu-Tang Clan's video for 'Can It All Be So Simple' (which you can watch below), the Grid 9000s have been tweaked to include yellow neoprene panels with a navy suede build. Red accents on the lace eyelets and inner lining echo Raekwon's look, while a toggle on the laces finishes the look.
Available in limited numbers from the following retailers in limited numbers, you could always go for the Saucony Shadow 5000s if these specials pass you by.
