FILA introduces its new NY Style Pizza collection of footwear that is exclusively available at Foot Locker. It celebrates the city's famous pizzerias and the five boroughs in the city are launching the capsule. The sportswear imprint taps 'Rubirosa Ristorante, Roberta’s, sLICe Astoria, Louie & Ernie’s, and Lee’s Tavern.'
All of the styles of the sneakers are made respective to the aesthetic of each shop. This includes a focus on the dual logo language and the individualized branding details. Notably, the back of the tongue is detailed with a city map and all of the sneakers are packaged in a box that resembles that of a pizza box. The capsule is now available to shop online at Foot Locker and at select locations.
