Jae Tips x Saucony
Jae Tips first made his name designing vibrant, distinctive caps for Hat Club, featuring his signature Savior Worldwide branding and flower patterns, before catching Saucony's attention and transitioning into sneaker design. The Bronx native's bold creative vision and commitment to unique color schemes earned him acclaim with his debut sneaker, the Grid Azura 2000, which won a 2023 FN Achievement Award.
Jae's momentum has continued to build with a series of successful releases that showcase his talent for bold color combinations and storytelling, including the Grid Shadow 2 "Wear To The Party" and "Wear To A Date" editions, as well as a fresh take on the ProGrid Omni 9. Most recently, Tips previewed his interpretation of the Saucony Matrix at Paris Fashion Week, featuring a rich burgundy colorway with tannish-pink accents and his signature split branding—a design choice that places the Saucony logo on one shoe and his Savior logo on the other. Beyond his creative output, Tips has become an influential voice in sneaker culture, actively working to inspire the next generation of designers while helping to elevate Saucony's presence in the contemporary footwear landscape.
