While Saucony was undeniably dealt a bit of a blow by Jae Tips jumping to Nike, the brand isn’t about to go wallow in the shadows. If there’s a silver lining, it’s that more attention can be given to its strong run of inline releases, which have quietly been on a hot streak as of late.

Saucony’s latest lifestyle pack is deeply inspired, drawing from Japanese tearooms with intricate floral prints reminiscent of traditional teacups. Three silhouettes make up the “Kissaten” pack, each featuring a similar palette with varied color blocking. The Progrid Triumph 4 leads the charge with an eye-catching blue mesh base and teal and pink accents, while the Progrid Omni 9 arrives with a softer off-white, pink, and rose gold foundation. The iconic Shadow 5000 rounds out the lineup with a mix of blue and off-white mesh, paired with teal and pink suede. Floral prints appear throughout, landing on the tongue, collar, and insoles of each sneaker.

The “Kissaten” pack drops via Saucony and boutiques on April 15th. Saucony is holding an EQL raffle for the Progrid Triumph 4, but it appears the other two silhouettes will see standard releases. See our Where to Buy sections below for purchase links and pricing info.
