Both the Shadow Original 6000 “Pearl” and “OG” have been released in celebration of the model’s thirtieth anniversary, delighting the sneaker world by creating a true 50/50 split between technology and design with visceral elements that cater to the lives of creatives like Adeline and Vickors. While the “OG” is a nod to the original with its white, grey and navy colorway, the “Pearl” was inspired by the tradition of giving pearls for a thirtieth wedding anniversary. This comes through in white premium leather with iridescent inserts and mesh fabrics, featuring its standout, much improved midsole made from the innovative PWRRUN material. Equipped with the vision to push the boundaries of how we define ourselves, the Saucony Shadow Original 6000 is ushering in a new era of self expression with the help of Adeline and Vickors.

SHADOW 6000 “PEARL”
The Saucony Shadow Original was released at the heart of the 1990s, epitomizing the running style of the times, and hasn’t slowed down since. Thirty years later, the brand continues to raise the stakes, with each new version of the model shedding its skin to reinvent itself as an of-the-moment style that remains true to the spirit of creativity, risk taking and sneaker innovation. The latest releases, the Shadow Original 6000 “Pearl” and “OG,” are an emblem of this, representing a new era of the iconic silhouette. The styles are worn by equally as expressive artists, Jordan Vickors and Adeline, who move with a boundless, propelling approach that prioritizes open-source creativity and information sharing in the new age of collaboration.

Usher In a New Era
of Self Expression
Similarly, Jordan Vickors who rose in fashion’s ranks as a creative consultant for Stüssy, and working with the likes of Virgil Abloh and Kanye West, has forged his own path. Refusing to occupy just one lane, he has become a sought after voice in the creative space and a looked-to fashion influencer in the industry by redefining the role he plays in both his career and each endeavor he takes on. Approaching each project from a point of raw creativity and creating multiple versions of each product until he’s landed on the one has put Vickors far ahead of the game. Achieving this level of completion in any task is not an easy feat, but the Shadow 6000 “OG,” which remains faithful to the shoe’s original design, is proof that the result can be a product that withstands the test of time.
Though originally designed as an authentic running shoe crafted from the Jazz model, the Shadow Original has established itself as a lifestyle staple that’s now more likely to be worn to a gallery opening or a in the conference room of a fashion company. This balance of form and function has made it a go-to for creatives like the Brooklyn-based artist Adeline, who sports the Shadow 6000 “Pearl.” Adeline is often on her feet, recording in the studio or touring and playing live shows. When she’s not on the road, she is also advocating and fighting for social justice in her community. For her, Saucony is a more than just a style choice.
