Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 Callen Schaub

Saucony ProGrid Omni 9 “Callen Schaub” – swirling color on an archival silhouette

The limited Saucony × Callen Schaub collaboration brings spin-painting aesthetics to a running classic from the early 2010s. A full-color sublimation print of “spun paint” is visible on the off-white, breathable 360° Airmesh; turquoise, magenta, and neon lime blend seamlessly in the style of swirling paint on canvas. Metallic TPU panels and translucent Support Frame overlays stabilize the midfoot without obscuring the artistic graphic. Reflective 3M™ stripes on the toe and heel complete the impression of light splashes, enhancing the cosmic effect after dark.

The heel features a ProGrid™ capsule (TPU + Hytrel®), which, paired with full-length SSL EVA foam, dampens initial impact and provides springy cushioning over long distances. The dual-density medial post and Arch-Lock™ strap blend into the silhouette, controlling moderate pronation without stiffening the gait cycle (drop ≈ 12 mm). The XT-900 outsole combines with Blown Rubber under the toes in high-wear zones; Tri-Flex grooves guarantee grip and flexible push-off on asphalt. Through the semi-transparent outsole, you can see the tinted ProGrid insert – like a puddle of paint captured in motion.

The insoles are adorned with a signed reproduction of a Callen Schaub painting, and the “Studio Spin” box with a holographic logo includes two pairs of laces: multicolored rope with a reflective thread and classic off-white. A numbered paint-palette-shaped hang-tag (##/1000) confirms the limited edition. The set combines running functionality with gallery-style storytelling, making it a coveted item for both sneakerheads and contemporary art collectors.

ProGrid™ technology and gallery form in motion

The ProGrid™ cushioning system utilizes the resilient properties of Hytrel®, distributing impact energy evenly across the entire length of the SSL EVA foam. Thanks to this, the Omni 9 remains lightweight and dynamic even after many kilometers. The two-stage medial post supports the arch during moderate overpronation, and the flexible Strobel ensures a smooth heel-to-toe transition. The spin-painting method inspires more than just the color scheme – the motif of paint in motion translates the act of running into a canvas, where every workout leaves a unique trail.

Transparent segments of the sole allow you to admire the “puddle” of colors locked within the ProGrid, creating an art-tech effect visible with every step. The XT-900 rubber compound protects high-wear zones, while Tri-Flex grooves distribute pressure, improving traction on wet urban surfaces. The model comes in a box inspired by the artist’s studio – the holographic logo swirls with movement, reflecting Callen Schaub’s philosophy that color only comes to life in rotation. You can find this pair among Saucony shoes, other sneakers, and our new arrivals.
