Westside Gunn Teases His Saucony Grid Jazz 9 “Scorpion”

Summary

• Westside Gunn’s new partnership with Saucony has led to the reveal of a collaborative Grid Jazz 9 “Scorpion”
• The all-red colorway features a scorpion overlay at the medial midfoot
• No release details have been shared yet

Last October, Westside Gunn took to Instagram to announce his first sneaker project, partnering with Saucony. We then saw him reveal a colorful, glow-in-the-dark take on the ProGrid Triumph 4 at the end of 2024. While the two have been quiet since, we now have another design to anticipate.

Gunn and Saucony made their presence at Paris Fashion Week known by revealing another collaborative sneaker, the Grid Jazz 9 “Scorpion.” Our limited first look at the pair sees the shoe dressed in an attention-commanding red. The monochromatic pair features a wide range of materials, including faux pony hair, textured leather, and suede at the upper. It also sports a large scorpion at the medial midfoot, a motif often used by Gunn’s Griselda Records collective.

At the time of writing, neither Westside Gunn nor Saucony have indicated when this red “Scorpion” take on the Grid Jazz 9 will be dropping. Stay tuned for updates, including an official look at the pair, as we expect it to drop alongside additional designs from the new duo in the months to come.
