Saucony x Jae Tips ProGrid Triumph 4 Violet/Earth
Drawing inspiration from plant life as a metaphor for the resilience, beauty, and opportunity found in the Bronx, the Flowers Grow Uptown collection celebrates Jae Tips’ neighborhood with deep personal meaning. Debuted during Paris Fashion Week in June 2025, the collection features four striking colorways, Virginia Creeper, Sugar Maple, Perilla, and Poison Ivy, each named after foliage native to the Bronx. More than just a design statement, the collection honors the strength and creativity that continue to grow in often overlooked spaces, turning the natural world in to a symbol of community, pride, and potential.
“The inspiration for Flowers Grow Uptown came from my daily walks in the Bronx,” says Tips. “Taking my kids to school and running errands, I began to notice the plants and beauty around me, which became a metaphor for finding beauty in the struggle. In my career, I have found all the inspiration I need in my immediate surroundings — and my path has become a metaphor for a flower that grows up town.”
