Saucony Originals get inspired for their latest themed Shadow 6000 pack, using the three main elements that make an Irish Coffee — coffee, whiskey, and cream.

Firstly, let me state that I’m a big fan of this drop and for several reasons. It’s based on coffee, so it’s pretty much a dead cert for me. Regardless, they’ve kept things super simple and effective, letting the shape of the Shadow 6000 and the texture of that sweet Wolverine Silkee Suede steal all the attention. White midsoles and gum outsoles keep things classic and classy. I can’t actually fault this pack other than it being hard to pick a favourite.

Someone’s gone overkill with the VSCO filters for the official imagery, which is a shame, but you can still get a good enough idea of what the kicks actually look like.

So, one thing remains — coffee, whiskey, or cream?

The Saucony Originals Shadow 6000 ‘Irish Coffee’ pack is available now at select retailers in sizes for both girls and guys, priced at a whopping £110 a pair.
