Wale looks to continue his collaboration efforts with the Philadelphia based retailer, VILLA. The first collaboration between the two entities was seen with the successful release of the ‘Bottle Rocket’ ASICS and was followed up with the ‘Gift Box’ Timberlands. Now we are here for Wale’s third collaboration and while it isn’t a Nike like many fans would hope for that doesn’t take away from the fact this upcoming Saucony Grid 9000 looks good from the picture provided.
While this is just a preview from the tweet provided by Wale back in January we have an idea of what inspired the collaboration. No further pictures have been issued just yet but with the release date set for this upcoming April 2016, we can expect for those said pictures to start rolling out for the VILLA x Wale x Saucony Grid 9000 ‘Penn Relays’, soon. Now the nickname ‘Penn Relays’ may not stay the same but until the official unveiling we will continue to work with that. Let us know your thoughts on these as the picture above shows Wale wearing them sitting next to Joe Budden.
My next sneaker collab will be the “Penn Relays” in the spring .. #tracknation ain’t forget ya @RUVILLA
