Solebox continues to explore the natural world with the nickname for their latest Saucony collaboration adding a layer of meaning to the colorways we’d seen teased last week. The Solebox x Saucony Shadow 5000 ‘Lucanid‘ follows up on the blackbird-inspired ‘Sturnella Militaris’ Reebok CLs with two styles in tribute to the monstrously mandibled stag beetle. The Berlin boutique reports more details will follow but we know that limited numbers will drop on Friday, June 15th and there’s a set of images you’ll want to see below.

As a matter of fact, they’re no stranger to the Saucony Shadow 5000, having already worked with the model once before in 2013 via their “Three Brothers Pack”. This next joint on the way from them looks be a bit of a darker affair, with the color pushed onto the insides via the super bright lining. There’s no word yet on a specific theme surrounding the sneaker, but as well all know the Solebox team loves to tell stories with their releases, so expect more on that soon.

Built with lux suede uppers and featuring the iconic starry perforated toe-boxes, Play Cloths’ latest rendition of the Saucony Shadow 5000 is defined by three distinct pastel colors that represent the fluffy sweets often see at carnivals, street fairs, and other summer-time family outings. All three feature tonal uppers of Dream Blue, Coral Almond, and Mimosa with white midsoles, gum outsoles, special inner linings, and the aforementioned star detailing at the toe-box, laying out the perfect “summer shoe” vibe.

The Saucony Master Control upper is planted on top of the Saucony Shadow 5000 sole kit. As far as materials go they’ve selected a mixture of pig suede, full grain leather, satin, and 3M. Continue reading for the first full look at this fiery pair (one whose colorway kind of looks like an extension of that last Hanon collab) that will be releasing at Hanon on Saturday, March 2nd.
