Originating from Saucony Creek in Pennsylvania, Saucony\u2019s history in footwear saw the label producing boots for the first American astronaut to\u00a0walk in space and creating military boots for the US Army in World\u00a0War II, before creating the trainers Rod Dixon wore when he won the New York City marathon\u00a0in 1983. \u00a0From\u00a0the creation of the first slip-lasted running shoe, to the introduction of their innovative ‘Grid’ technology and the EVA dual density midsole, Saucony have been producing innovative technical footwear for over a\u00a0century and are intrinsic to the development of the modern training shoe.<\/p>\n

For a limited time only, Saucony will now open the doors to\u00a0a pop-up retail space in the heart of London\u2019s Seven Dials.\u00a0\u00a0Alongside Saucony Originals and Saucony\u00a0Performance footwear, the space will also feature an exhibition of much-coveted\u00a0archive pieces dating from the 1950\u2019s to the present day.\u00a0\u00a0The four week residency will also give\u00a0European consumers their first chance to buy sought after\u00a0collaboration pieces, as well as the opportunity for collectors to obtain limited edition archive artwork, with each featured piece being announced across Saucony Originals\u2019 social media channels periodically throughout the store’s tenure.<\/p>\n
