The colorway of the END. x Saucony Shadow 5000 collab sneaker might look familiar, but people wouldn't necessarily associate it with its inspiration right off the bat. That is unless a person sets eyes on it for the first time when hungry. That's because the shoe design was influenced by gourmet burger joints. Hence all of the rumbling stomachs.
The END. x Saucony Shadow 5000 Burger sneaker features a distinct palette of beige seude as the 'buns,' green and red accents (lettuce and tomatoes) as well as interchangeable 'bbq' and 'mayo' laces. Each pair of the END. x Saucony Shadow 5000 Burger sneakers comes in a custom diner-like box that will have people almost wishing they were real burgers.
