Update (5/24/2023): Saucony will release Jae Tips’ Saucony Grid Azura 2000 on its website tomorrow, May 25th. You can find the silhouette here.

The Bronx-native Jae Tips is working with Saucony to produce a Saucony Grid Azura 2000 – his first-ever sneaker collab. Images of the Jae Tips x Saucony Grid Azura 2000 surfaced last November, but now, we have an in-depth look at the upcoming silhouette.

Jae Tips is known for using lively colors, and he stays true to his roots on the Grid Azura 2000, opting for multiple shades and materials. The upper comes in an orange-tinted mesh with purple and aqua suede overlays. It has a floral-printed mudguard, black and white checkered heels, and animal-inspired graphics across the logos. And the designer doesn’t let you forget this is his first sneaker – he reminds you with a special message printed on the box, which reads “Jae Tips First Shoe”.

The Jae Tips x Saucony Grid Azura 2000 will release on Wednesday, May 10th, at ShopJaeTips.com for $160. A limited number of pairs were available on May 6th for the New York City-exclusive pre-launch.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
