Monday, June 11th, 2012

Earlier this month the first part of Saucony’s highly limited collaboration with Packer of Jersey launched here at End, selling out within hours. For those who missed out, we did manage to get a limited restock, and these will soon by joined by the second, and final instalment of the collection, with the remaining two colourways launching online and instore in early July.

Continuing the theme that ran throughout the first drop, Packer once again rework the hugely popular Grid 9000, using colours and materials inspired by trail running footwear. The result is two shoes that perfectly showcase this classic 90s runner, using a combination of suede, mesh and canvas to highlight the Grid’s clean lines, durable construction and unsurpassed comfort. As with the first half of the release, numbers are extremely limited, so if you want to ensure you get a pair you’ll have to be quick. We will be launching the Packer Colab at 10am BST on Friday 15th July, if you would like more information regarding the release, drop us an email at info@endclothing.co.uk or call our customer service team on +44 191 231 3983.

Saucony’s Spring/Summer 12 ‘Packer Collection’ – Drop 1

Thursday, May 10th, 2012

Soon to arrive here at End is Saucony’s Spring/Summer 12 ‘Packer Collection’, a first-time collaboration showcasing the iconic Grid 9000 runner in four new colourways. The concept behind this pioneering shoe – which was first introduced in 1994 – was to create a motion control, high end performance running shoe that also offered maximum cushioning, a principle that remains the same today, with Saucony utilising an updated and improved ‘Grid System’ air cushioning unit at the heel. Aesthetically, each colourway represents a different facet of Packer Shoe Store’s rich history, with the Jersey based collaborators opting to have each shoe crafted from premium, coloured suede with ripstop panelling to showcase the Grid 9000′s classic lines.

Limited to just 350 pairs globally, the first two shoes from the collection are set to lauch Friday 1st June in the colourways shown above. In the meantime, if you have any further enquiries, feel free to contact us at info@endclothing.co.uk.
