This year marks the 35th anniversary of Saucony’s classic Jazz Original and the silhouette is celebrating its birthday in style as the American sportswear imprint introduces a luxurious makeover for the early ’80s classic. Simply dubbed the “Lux” pack, the new drop puts a modern spin on the heritage runner, retaining the same comfort and fit as the original, but adding debossed and perforated logo detailing to the mix. That’s not all, though. Pigskin suede lines each and every pair while Wolverine suede is joined by tonal rope lacing.

Available in either tan or black, the Saucony Jazz Original “Lux” drops September 1 at Saucony Originals retailers and saucony.com.
