The Saucony Azura “Ski Jacket” is influenced by colorful nylon winter bomber jackets, which famously hit their fashion peak in the 1990s. The shoe, which originally released in 1988, gives off a retro-ski vibe with bold shades of nylon, reflective details, and a synthetic fur lining around the collar. Technically speaking, it features Saucony's signature Torsional Rigidity Bar (TRB) to enhance midfoot support and a triangular-lug rubber tread on the outsole. Neutral shades of white and beige are brightened up by blue, mint green, and bold red accents. Ski Jacket
