Saucony is making impressive strides with its collaborations in 2024. Their partnership with Bodega on the Grid Shadow 2 was met with much acclaim, and the “To Do List” capsule from Jae Tips is expected to receive accolades for collaboration of the year.

Just as noteworthy was Saucony’s first project with Minted NY earlier this year, featuring a ProGrid Triumph 4 that celebrated the brand’s New York heritage. With the New York Marathon approaching, Saucony and Minted NY are now turning their attention to performance running with the Endorphin Speed 4.

Marcus Milione’s philosophy on brand development serves as an excellent example for budding entrepreneurs. Minted NY operates at the intersection of fashion and personal wellness, leveraging Milione’s enthusiasm for running to cultivate a robust community.

As shared through Instagram Reels by Milione, the Minted NY x Saucony collaboration was intended to commence with a lifestyle sneaker (the ProGrid Triumph 4, initially a retro running shoe, is now embraced for lifestyle wear) before evolving into a focus on performance running, aligning more closely with Minted’s core values.

The Minted NY Endorphin Speed 4 showcases a vibrant electric blue with white accents, opting for a singular color scheme instead of intricate designs (after several attempts to perfect the blue hue).

Additionally, Milione features a map of one of his favorite running routes printed on the insoles, which is a six-mile loop in Central Park that involves significant uphill segments in the latter part. Beyond that, the Minted NY logo prominently appears on the lateral heel as the principal branding element.

Similar to their previous collaboration, the Minted NY x Saucony Endorphin Speed 4 will debut at a pop-up event in NYC on November 1st, just two days prior to the New York Marathon.

While the specific location and time have not yet been revealed at the time of writing, updates will be posted on this page as they become available. The shoes will also be launched online at a later date, though that information remains to be determined at this point.

    Official Release Date for the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen”

    The Boston Celtics’ season is unfolding just as they had envisioned, with only one loss to report and a striking 30 points per game average from their star player, Jayson Tatum.

    After a more eventful off-season than what championship teams typically endure, Tatum and his Boston teammates have skillfully tuned out distractions, staying focused on their goal of repeating their success early in the season. In line with this theme, the upcoming #0 Jordan Tatum 3 is about to launch a “Zen” colorway that embodies this same sense of tranquility.

    The motif of serenity has been a consistent element in Jayson Tatum’s sneaker line, especially highlighted by the “Vortex” version of the Tatum 2, which explicitly connects to this theme: our previous coverage noted that the design reflects Tatum’s calm demeanor, reminiscent of the peacefulness found in a vortex above water.

    While this new model opts for a more subdued color palette, its execution remains true to that original concept; the graceful cut-outs in the upper design resemble calm waters, serving as a guiding inspiration throughout Tatum’s signature collection.

    As mentioned earlier, the Jordan Tatum 3 “Zen” is set to launch on November 14th via Nike.com, available in sizes for the whole family. The adult versions will be priced at $125.

    For a closer look at this appealing colorway, check out the official images below, and make sure to keep an eye on our Sneakers page for updates.

    Jason Kelce’s Field Goal Attempt In Timberlands Will End In A $100,000 Donation

    This Saturday, November 2nd, Jason Kelce will take on a field goal challenge while wearing Wheat Timbs during the ESPN College GameDay broadcast of the highly anticipated Penn State vs. Ohio State matchup. The idea for this challenge originated when college student Daniel Villasenor successfully kicked a field goal in Vans checkerboard slip-ons, winning an impressive $100,000 earlier in October.

    Initially discussed on the Kelce brothers’ New Heights podcast with special guest Pat McAfee, this lighthearted challenge quickly evolved into a real event. The NFL legend, Jason Kelce, is set to attempt scoring three points while donning the famous Wheat Timberlands.

    In an exciting twist, VF Corp — the parent company of both Vans and Timberland — has stepped in with a generous $100,000 commitment to the charity Soles4Souls, aimed at supporting hurricane relief efforts. Fortunately for Jason, VF Corp has assured that the funds will be donated regardless of whether his kick is successful or not.

    Make sure to tune in to ESPN College GameDay on November 2nd, 2024, to witness this unique field goal attempt for yourself!
