Celebrating 45 Years of Saucony's Jazz Original

Saucony, the renowned American lifestyle running brand, is excited to announce the release of the special anniversary model "Jazz Original 45" on August 14, 2026. This launch celebrates the 45th anniversary of the iconic "Jazz Original" sneaker, which has been loved for its timeless silhouette and practical design since its inception in 1980.

The Jazz Original is well-known for its combination of suede and nylon in the upper, and the unique triangular lug pattern outsole. These elements have helped it gain a reputation for comfort, making it a versatile shoe that fits seamlessly into a range of styles, from casual to sophisticated urban looks. Over the years, its enduring design and reliable performance have made it a favorite among sneaker enthusiasts and everyday users alike.

In keeping with the original's essence, the Jazz Original 45 enhances its classic style with premium materials. It features a high-quality pig suede upper combined with 210-denier nylon, and a leather color lining, giving it a refined appearance without losing its classic charm. The shoe also includes a finely crafted EVA midsole with a cut and buff finish, and a blown rubber outsole, ensuring both lightweight comfort and superior grip. Furthermore, it is equipped with Saucony's top-end foam technology, incrediLUX, offering a soft, enveloping fit that is perfect for daily wear.

Maintaining the universal appeal of the Jazz Original, the Jazz Original 45 is a tribute to Saucony's commitment to blending functionality and classic style. This anniversary model embodies 45 years of innovation and dedication to delivering quality footwear.
