After two successful collaborations, Saucony is ready to give their retro Matrix model its first in-line release since 2000. One of their first releases of the trail runner will be a bright yellow color scheme, coming soon.
Saucony’s streak of exciting collaborations has brought a new wave of popularity to the Pennsylvania-founded footwear brand. Projects with Minted NY, Jae Tips, Costs, StarCow, and FootPatrol have all hit shelves in the last four months alone, and their in-line variants of the shoes used have seen a boost in popularity thanks to their great design team. This year, the brand is set to revive the Matrix trail runner, a ’90s silhouette that has had great success in recent months in collaboration with Jae Tips and Colour Plus.
The Saucony Matrix is certainly not the first shoe from the running brand you’d expect to make a return in 2025. After the model’s ’90s debut, it was shelved in 2000 and has never seen a rerelease until now. The OG “Yellow” colorway that will kick off its release this year is the same pair worn by Ben Stiller on the set of Zoolander in 2001, with some minor adjustments to the color palette. The pair features a solid yellow molded upper, with a dark grey midsole and black overlays framing it. The River logo at the midfoot features a grey to white gradient, giving it the appearance of a reflective metallic material.
SAUCONY MATRIX OG “YELLOW” RELEASE INFORMATION
Saucony’s first in-line release of the ’90s Matrix trail runner does not have a set date yet, but is expected to release sometime soon in Spring 2025. Making its debut in a bright “Yellow” color scheme from 2000, the trail runner will be available from both Saucony and select retailers for an estimated $160 price tag.
