We recently got a glimpse of the “Trail Pack” – the latest collaboration between Saucony and New Jersey-based Packer Shoes. Although the Grid 9000 was better known in the mid-90s for its running stability and support, the “Trail Pack” brings a lifestyle aesthetic to the shoe with two fresh colorways on top of a versatile mix of materials.  The first colorway presents a military-inspired olive green and safety orange motif, while the second colorway offers a tech-inspired theme with purple and pink hits on a beige base.  Both pairs feature suede and mesh uppers with ballistic and ripstop accents and sit on cushioned midsoles for a comfortable and durable ride.  The “Trail Pack” will first release at Packer Shoes, in-store and online, on Friday, May 4th, and then will be rolled out to select retailers in the U.S. and Europe.  Check out more pictures after the jump and let us know what you think.

Just want to buy a pair of Featured Shoes: Nike LeBron 9 Elite – Taxi Sneakers right now? Featured Shoes: Nike LeBron 9 Elite – Taxi Sneakers.

You can’t stop Nike from flooding the market with successive LeBron 9 Elite colorways because after one, two, or three packs, here comes another one. So far, the Nike LeBron 9 Elite has reached the point where it is considered edgy because of the numerous color releases. It is indeed an honor for LeBron James to see his signature sneaker in a spectacle of interesting tones.

To further familiarize this latest drop, let us get closer to it and see how it is different from previous releases. The varsity maize upper consists of mesh and leather trims with black carbon fiber covering on the side, a white/red-speckled black midsole, and black outsole. There are also red hits all over the upper such as the heel pull tab, aglets, and labels. It is dubbed as “Taxi” because it probably conveys the yellow cab.

Try to cop this at your nearest Nike retailer on May 12^th.
