Saucony x Afew Shadow Master 5000 Goethe: On-Foot Shots

Celebrating one of Düsseldorf’s prime literary treasures, we captured the soft and subtle SAUCONY X AFEW SHADOW MASTER 5000 GOETHE on-foot in this exclusive shoot…

Düsseldorf retailer Afew pays homage to local literary legend Wolfgang Johann von Goethe in this delicate collaboration with Saucony. Utilising the brand’s Shadow Master 5000, Afew take cues from the architecture of the nearby Goethe Museum, with a soft pink and grey suede construction taking perfect shape over the streamlined retro running silhouette. The Shadow’s robust shock absorbing EVA midsole is complete in white, with a strikethrough indent and pink and grey traction outsole making further nods to the building’s stunning soft shades.

Not forgetting Goethe himself, the infamous poet’s vast body of work is given generous airtime across the design, including excerpts of the German wordsmith’s poetry winding through the white shoelaces in a contrasting black cursive script. Delivered in custom packaging that comes complete with a bookmark and booklet, check them out in all their glory below…

The SAUCONY X AFEW SHADOW MASTER 5000 GOETHE is set for a global release on SATURDAY 28 OCTOBER. Click the banner below to check the release page with all stockist details.
