The HANON x DIADORA V7000 TUSCAN RACER pays homage to Italy’s passion for road cycling and ‘Celeste’ mint green – an iconic colour instantly recognized from the bicycle frames of the world’s oldest cycle company.
The Tuscan Racer parallels the craftsmanship and attention to detail of Italian-made road bikes from the ’70s and ’80s with Italy’s world renowned production of leather footwear. The love and care applied to the hand-built steel frames mirrors the feeling and behind the shoes, utilising the finest materials and workmanship.
Constructed at Diadora’s Caerano Di San Marco factory, Hanon’s V.7000 Tuscan Racer features a premium build of super soft kangaroo leather, pigskin nubuck and old-school mesh. The upper is a rich mix that depicts Celeste mint green, whilst the cream and white overlays mimic the white-walled tyres and handlebar tape of the iconic racing bikes.
Attention to detail appears by way of a lux leather laminated footbed with printed racing stripes, whilst branding is featured via our flame logo screened on both tongues, and dual branding embroidered on opposing heels. Final details include a soft microfibre fabric applied to the collar lining and a 3M reflective underlay on the side stripe. In addition, each pair will come with additional lace sets, a bespoke shoe box and tissue paper.
The HANON x DIADORA V7000 TUSCAN RACER is due to release on SATURDAY 8 OCTOBER and will be available via the banner below.
