American imprint [Saucony](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/route-to-the-future) has delivered sneakers and apparel for numerous years and now it works together with UK-based retailer Footpatrol to spotlight the Jazz '81 sneaker model. The sneaker gets a new update with details that spotlight premium materials.

The shoe was debuted last year as a celebration of the [Jazz O's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shadow-6000-ivy-prep) 40th-year anniversary. It has a nylon base foundation in a sleek black hue and is marked with [gray suede embellishments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jabbar-low) on top for a touch of tonal and textural contrast. It continues with a patent leather touch by the heel stand and a quilted lining that can be seen by the tongue. This is also marked with the tagline that reads "HERITAGE OF JAZZ."
