Kicks Flow: Epitome x Saucony 5000 "Righteous One"










Righteous..

A couple of weeks ago, I was on Twitter making these bold statements about Saucony, and said that “I’m making Saucony fresh again”. I may have said something else along the lines of how I should get credit for “bringing them back” or something. Obviously, these are ridiculously inflated tweets to get people to start showing more love to the brand. I definitely have nothing to do with how fresh they are, and they don’t need anyone to bring them back because they’ve never left. This is just a great brand that I love and want to see get more shine.

Atlanta-based sneaker boutique Epitome has joined forces with Saucony to introduce a beautifully reimagined edition of the iconic Shadow 5000 silhouette. Taking inspiration from the 65-foot “big fish” statue that can be seen right across from Epitome’s storefront and middle eastern superstitions, the design features high grade premium pig suede and an all-over embossed fish scale pattern at the toe box. Suited up in a bright turquoise, this particular model is the very first Saucony to ever have a memory foam insert. 

The look is then finished with a translucent sole and gold flake accents. The eye on the tongue is supposed to guide the wearer onto a righteous path, which is where the name comes from. The Epitome x Saucony Shadow 5000 “Righteous One” will be available soon.

Top Shelf: Audi TT Clubsport Turbo






When quality engineering goes hand-in-hand with beauty, the result can be masterful. We all love fast cars, the thrill of the ride coupled with just looking cool while doing it. The freedom of just flying through the city streets or countryside really has no equal. It’s the best, and if you can find the right set of wheels to do it in, you’re all set.

Audi bridges the gap between its TT sports car and the mid-engine R8 with an all-new TT Clubsport Turbo. The concept is set to make its first appearance at the Wörthersee VW show in Austria as the second ever inclusion in VW’s Clubsport sector. The TT Turbo truly purrs thanks to a turbocharged and electric supercharged engine, which is capable of a 0-100km/h sprint in 3.6 seconds, while possibly even more impressive is the coupe’s top speed of 310 km/h. 

Aesthetically, the car is underpinned by palpable racing details, pulling inspirational cues from the Audi 90 IMSA GTO. Body specs include a widened wheelbase and adjustable carbon fiber rear wing.

Of course, we all have our staples, but if you dig a little deeper, you can always find a brand that has a lot of heat in the stash that would make your collection that much doper. We try to find those gems, and believe we have a great one today for you. 

Japanese denim and supple leather come together on this new “Okayama Denim” drop of the Onitsuka Tiger Colorado Eighty-Five. Leather accents in navy, white and tan shading complement the blue jean spread, while a speckled effect then draws additional attention to the midsole underneath.
