Inspired by Patrick’s participation in the 1993 All-Star Celebrity Home-Run Challenge we imagined what his PE’s would look like if he actually played baseball. We designed four different sneakers inspired by the four original New York baseball teams.
Our fourth and final stop is Manhattan, the team this shoe is based on has had several transformations since it's inception and were the original G-Men in New York. This team had intense rivalries with both teams in the Bronx and Brooklyn and helped kick off what is now known as the Subway Series in 1921 where they defeated the team in the Bronx to win the World Series. Before this team moved out West with their cross town rivals in Brooklyn they contributed to some of the greatest moments in baseball history, two of the more famous being the "shot heard 'round the world" a ninth inning walk-off home run to defeat Brooklyn for the pennant and "The Catch" an over-the-shoulder catch in the deepest part of center field that many have tried to replicate today unsuccessfully. The color blocking on this Focus is inspired by the uniform the team wore during the 1951 season, it features a grey wool upper with hints of black and orange paneling. The tongue features a special baseball logo we designed exclusively for this collection and to finish things off the Focus “Manhattan” comes in a special grey and orange box and is available now in limited quantities in men's sizes 5-16.
The FOCUS features a full leather upper with neoprene inserts for breathability, a cross strap ankle support system, a lightweight EVA midsole for cushioning and a rubber outsole.
