Bodega helped to resurrect Saucony’s status in the sneakerhead community with their elegant Elite collaborative line, and now the Boston-based boutique furthers its Frankenstein experiments by applying one of the collection’s best soles to three different designs. Based on the Grid 9000‘s exceptionally bouncy and comfortable sole setup, the Bodega x Saucony G9 collection brings together the Shadow 5000, 6000 and Master Control in unique colorways reminiscent of earlier teamups.
