Victory is Sweet with the Hanon x Diadora Squash St Clair

The HANON X DIADORA SQUASH ST CLAIR celebrates the fine moment in May 1983 when Aberdeen Football defeated Real Madrid to gloriously claim the European Cup…

Aberdeen footwear and clothing stalwarts Hanon reignite their longstanding footwear partnership with Diadora this autumn, this time honing in on the monumental moment that their local football team, Aberdeen FC, cinched their first ever European trophy under the leadership of Alex Ferguson. Utilising the Italian footwear brand’s classic Squash court shoe, they pay tribute to the “St. Clair” – the ferry that shipped Aberdeen’s fans over to the cup final in Gothenburg.

Manufactured by hand in Italy, the shoe’s premium pig suede upper runs with the same sky blue and white colours as the ship, which is finished with a kangaroo leather tongue, calf leather lining, ostrich leather side stripe, and robust black midsole. Historic details abound – including an embossed ‘112’ to the heel counter, which depicts the time of the winning goal; a rain print insole depicting the game night weather and silver accenting on the medial stripe to commemorate the cup win. Dual branded hits then take shape across the tongue and backtab. Limited to 150 pairs, which each come with a custom box and 3 lace sets, Hanon is surely onto a winner with this footwear hero.

The HANON X DIADORA SQUASH ST CLAIR will be launched in-store on WEDNESDAY 25 OCTOBER at 4 PM, followed by a general release of any remaining stock on SATURDAY 28 OCTOBER from 10 AM. Until then, shop the latest product at HANON by following the banner below.
