The nods to coffee and donuts don't end there! The tongue of each shoe features a subtle DD logo and the famous slogan is printed across across the heel. Even the liners are printed with images of Dunkin’ Donuts hot and iced coffee and the signature Saucony logo is made with a coffee-bean detail.

In addition to their flashy and perfectly Boston style, the shoes are fully functional for getting you across the finish line. The DD branding is applied to Runner's World's 2018 "Editor's Choice": the Saucony’s Kinvara 9 shoe.
“As we celebrate Saucony’s 120th anniversary we’re proud to honor our hometown marathon and Boston’s rich running heritage,’” said Amanda Reiss, chief marketing officer of Saucony, in a press release. “The shoe celebrates the joy, determination and delicious obsession of runners everywhere with a sense of playfulness that’s true to the heart and soul of both brands.”
