The Saucony Astrotrail Pack embraces self-discovery by bringing nature and astrology together. The pack consists of four sneakers, each representing one of the core elements of the universe: water, earth, air and fire.
How Saucony was born
In 1898, four businessmen opened a shoe factory in Kutztown, Pennsylvania. So Saucony (pronounced sock-a-knee) is already 122 years old. The company was located on Saucony Creek, where the name originated. The literal meaning of the word comes from saconk, which in the language of the Lenni Lenape Indians means "confluence of two rivers".
The logo therefore also depicts the river where the brand started. The three dots represent the three boulders in the river where the water flowed. Today, these boulders represent the guiding principles of Saucony's brand: good performance, good health and good community. Currently, the company is located in a suburb of Boston.
"We exist to empower the human spirit, at every step, on every run and in all communities."

Saucony Astrotrail Pack sneakers
Because each sneaker is designed with a different core element in mind, the kicks individually have very unique details and colours. In addition, each element has been given its own Saucony style.
Saucony Mad River 2 TR Water
Peregrine 11 Earth
Shadow 5000 Air
Saucony Grid Azura 2000 Fire
All four sneakers feature a zodiac symbol on the tongue and distinctive trail aesthetics. The earth-coloured base on the upper represents the connection with the earth. On the other hand, the panels and overlays feature many striking colours. These colours reflect the elements. Additionally, the kicks have bungee speed lacing and speckled midsoles.
