The good people at Diadora is looking for their own way to be involved in all the Rio Olympics celebration brands are partaking in. Aside from the “big” names, I feel this collection deserves just as much praise.
Here is the Diadora ‘From Seoul to Rio’ Collection. The collection features not one but seven sneakers respectively from seven different stores/boutiques throughout Europe and the US. The silhouettes involved are the Diadora IC4000 and the Diadora Intrepid. As for the stores/boutiques involved are 24 Kilates (Barcelona), Hanon (Aberdeen), Patta (Amsterdam) and Solebox (Berlin). Diadora Intrepid will be represented by Concepts (Boston), Kith (NYC) and Packer Shoes (NYC).
Expect for more detailed pictures regarding each of the seven silhouettes as the release date is set for August 6, 2016 for the Diadora IC4000 which are the Europe shops. August 20th will see the Intrepids releasing which are for the US contributors. Each shoe is also limited to 500 pairs, men and women sizes will be available for all except the CNCPTS and 24 Kilates.
What would a great collection be without apparel and a duffle bag. So look forward to that as well. Look for the apparel collection to be available at two pop up shops in September.
