A heritage running icon gets a bold new life through Westside Gunn’s creative lens.
A Milestone First Collaboration
Saucony has unveiled its latest creative partnership with Grammy-nominated artist and Griselda Records founder Westside Gunn.
This marks the rapper’s first official footwear collaboration.
The project centers on the ProGrid Triumph 4, a classic Saucony silhouette that now serves as a canvas for Gunn’s distinct, art-driven aesthetic.
This debut marks the beginning of an ongoing series of drops between the brand and the artist.
Design Details That “Move the Culture”
First teased on social media, the Westside Gunn x Saucony ProGrid Triumph 4 instantly sparked hype. It quickly became one of the year’s most anticipated releases.
The shoe fuses Saucony’s performance heritage with Gunn’s underground creative edge. It brings a gallery-level sense of detail to a technical runner.
The design features neon mesh uppers that pop visually and a snakeskin-debossed tongue for added texture.
Additionally, there is a scorpion logo sock liner that nods to Gunn’s visual universe. His signature “SUPER FLYGOD” detailing adds a final layer of personality.
Each pair arrives in a custom drawer-style box finished with a Griselda x Saucony hangtag, underscoring the collaboration’s collector appeal.
“Westside Gunn is one-of-a-kind; he creates moments that move the culture like no one else,” stated Jason Faustino, Senior Director of Global Energy, Saucony. “This first drop is only the start of an ongoing story we’re writing together. It connects Saucony’s heritage with the unapologetic self-expression that defines Gunn’s world.”
A Big Year for Saucony and Wolverine Worldwide
This announcement lands during a landmark moment for Saucony and its parent company, Wolverine Worldwide.
The company was recently named Company of the Year by Footwear News. It will be honored at the Footwear News Achievement Awards (FNAA) on December 3.
That recognition highlights the brand’s momentum. It is driven by innovation, creativity, and a growing slate of collaborations.
These sit at the intersection of performance and culture. From elite racing podiums to style-led city streets, Saucony continues to expand its influence.
More Than a Sneaker Drop
From Paris streets to world podiums, Saucony has been steadily redefining what comes next in footwear.
The Westside Gunn x Saucony ProGrid Triumph 4 isn’t just another release. It’s a statement about where both the brand and broader culture are headed: louder, bolder, and more unapologetically individual.
Release Information and Where to Buy
The Westside Gunn x Saucony ProGrid Triumph 4 launches December 4, 2025. Pairs will be available exclusively through Kith and Saucony.com.
This provides fans of both the brand and the artist a focused, premium channel to secure this first chapter in what promises to be a continuing story.
