Saturdays NYC gives the iconic Brooks' Ghost 16 sneaker model a unique makeover with inspiration from the vibrant city of New York. The running shoe is one of the most iconic models from the Ghost series and it only makes sense that lifestyle brand Saturdays NYC takes a go at creating its own variation.
The running shoe collaboration between the two lands between something that is both urban and nature at once. It brings attention to the lively cityscapes of Saturdays NYC and its hometown along with organic textures. The upper is designed with topographical maps and geometric water patterns. This is paired with reflective details that continue onto the laces and the heel unit which represent man-made architecture and bright city life.
