Metagirl, the Boston-born and Italy-based designer, is linking up with Saucony for a new spin on the Progrid Paramount. The collab is called “Daughter of the Moon”, and it feels different from her usual jeweled customs. This time the shine comes more from mood than sparkle, and that’s exactly the point.
No crystals here. Instead, lace edges the collar while a shaped heel clip pulls the design tight. Pearl tones lead the way, broken up with hits of lavender that soften the overall look. It’s clean, but still has that Metagirl signature.
The name isn’t random either. “Daughter of the Moon” pulls from Vedic ideas—pearls, water, lightning. Symbols tied to movement and change. It adds story to the shoe, and you feel it once you know the background.
The choice of model matters too. Back in the day, the Progrid Paramount sat at the top of Saucony’s running line. Right alongside the Omni 9 and the Triumph 4. Sneakerheads who ran in those years will get the callback instantly. This collab digs into that history instead of chasing trends.
No set launch yet, but the Metagirl x Saucony Paramount is expected in August 2025. With the way this project is being teased, expect it to stay on people’s watchlists until the drop.
