From different roast types to the equipment used to grind and brew the drink, the intricacies of coffee culture are as deep, if not deeper, than that of sneakerhead culture. The two worlds collide more frequently than you think, such as the famous coffee shop out in Oregon, Deadstock Coffee, founded by a former Nike footwear developer. Speaking of The Swoosh, the label is prepping to drop a coffee-themed collection around performance runners, which includes the already-revealed Vomero 18 and now the Pegasus 41.
The storied Pegasus franchise joins this homage to coffee and seemingly the city of Copenhagen with the soft pearl and velvet brown colorway of the Peg 41. Like the aforementioned Vomero 18, the pair comes packaged in a special coffee bean-like bag featuring branding for the model and nods to the Danish city famed for its coffee culture. As for the sneaker's design, we see a soft pearl engineered mesh base wrap around the upper, while black hues contrast with the lace set, Swoosh, and sockliner.
