Diadora approaches the end of 2018 and of its 70th anniversary celebrations with fireworks, giving birth to one last limited edition release dedicated to its greatest fans and aficionados.

Thursday 13th of December at 14:48 on Diadora 48th Floor – the Italian brand website section purposely created to introduce some of its special projects – Diadora has launched the N9000 MIX, an exclusive version of the iconic silhouette of Caerano di San Marco, realized employing a mix of materials and colours that pays homage to some of the most important collaborations undertaken by the Italian brand in recent years.

The right and the left shoe are different and uppers are made with premium materials including pigskin nubuck, soft suede, and kangaroo leather, using colours and tones that Diadora fans will easily recognise. Midsoles boast a dirty effect and are completed by the sole with Double Action technology, as in the original sneaker.

The production is strictly Made in Italy and only 285 numbered pairs have been released, which could be exclusively purchased through the 48th Floor website. Diadora decided to make this special project for the fans and with the fans, indeed collaborating with the Facebook group “Diadora Talk”, which gave a fundamental contribution to the birth of what is one of the most beautiful and significant Diadora release of all times: the most loved silhouette, the N9000, made in Italy with pieces of some of the best Diadora collabs, a dream become reality!

To pay homage to the many Diadora fans and to “Diadora Talk”, here we publish not only the official pics from 48th Floor, but also some “on feet” snapshots captured by the fans yukigraphics, max.loewe, don_shoela and kevykev!

After the exclusive release in late November at Atmos locations, the countdown for the international release is finally over, so mark on your calendar that the Asics Gel Lyte III x Atmos “World Map” will be available starting from Friday, January 4th 2019, in selected sneaker stores around the globe bounded to the Japanese brand, such as Kosmos, asphaltgold, Sneakers76, Superstylin' and 43einhalb.
