The HANON x DIADORA V7000 INTER CITY finds the much-loved Aberdeen retailer continuing their Saturday Special theme: a public transport service that ran throughout the UK in the 1980s.
The V7000 is an original running model straight from Diadora’s 1990 catalogue and, to keep things authentic, this Diadora V7000 ‘Inter City’ is made in Italy in the renowned Montebelluna shoe district Caerano di San Marco. The V7000 is a lightweight model offering maximum foot support and comfort, utilising its original midsole which features a double density EVA called D.D Lite. For this special edition, HANON took some inspiration from the impact of Italian sportswear during this decade and especially Diadora’s use of plush material treatments used across their football and sportswear collections.
The upper section uses silky pig suede and kangaroo leather for a premium feel, with a colourway inspired by ’80s trains and buses – a mix of royal blue and orange with teal and white accents. There’s an old school multi-print on the inner-sock, with the HANON flame logo embroidered on the heel overlays and screened on the tongue patch. Three sets of laces (in orange, blue and teal), gold foil labels and an additional screened cotton dust bag complete the release.
The HANON x DIADORA V7000 INTER CITY launches exclusively at HANON on SATURDAY 9 JULY, both In-Store in the morning and online at 14:00 BST, and will be available via the banner below…
