The first half of the Packer Shoes x Grid 9000 collaboration just started arriving at additional retailers last week, but over in Teaneck, New Jersey, it’s already on to the next chapter. Following up on the two-shoe Trail Pack, comes another two stunners dubbed the Tech Pack. This duo follows a similar color formula to the first two, but punches things up a bit for a more vibrant summer look this time around. In addition to the clean color schemes, both pairs feature a ripstop underlay with sections of nubuck, ballistic mesh and treated suede for a durable street-ready spin on the lightweight runner. Get a better look at both pairs after the jump and be ready to get them while you can when they release in limited numbers this Friday, June 8th online and in-store at Packer Shoes.

Last week, we brought you a sneak peek at the latest Packer Shoes collaboration – a dynamic duo of Saucony Grid 9000′s dubbed the ‘Trail Pack’. The Grid 9000 model made some quick fans last year when it returned as part of the Bodega collection, and now the Packer crew gives the super-comfy runner a fresh new look for spring, equipped with a juicy blend of colors and materials. One pair sports an army green/spicy orange color scheme balanced out by light and dark greys, while the other contrasts a light tan base against rich blue with splashes of pink to further electrify the look. Both Packer Grid 9000′s feature a combination of suede, ballistic mesh and ripstop nylon on the uppers, giving the ‘Trail Pack’ a durable make-up that still keeps things breathable and ready to rock all year round. You can check out a detailed gallery of pics after the jump, and look for both pairs to hit Packer Shoes in-store and online next Friday, May 4th with a handful of additional retailers in the U.S. and Europe to follow shortly after.

Over the past few years, Packer Shoes has knocked it out out of the park time and time again collaborating on sneaker projects with a variety of different brands. For their latest collabo endeavor, the NJ shop teams up for the first time with Saucony for a new spin on the criminally underrated Grid 9000 model, which was recently reintroduced to the masses as part of last year’s Bodega collection. Packer‘s offering features two trail-inspired colorways with a complementary blend of rugged base colors and vivid accent pops and a carefully considered combination of materials covering the uppers. Look for these to release in the not too distant future, so check out the teaser pics after the jump for now and stay tuned for more info and images coming soon.
