Saucony was founded in 1898, they traces their early roots to the banks of the Saucony Creek in Kutztown, Pennsylvania. Native American inhabitants of the area coined the Saucony name which translated means “mouth of a creek or river.”
In 1906, the Saucony Shoe Manufacturing Company built its first factory, a solid brick two-story construction along the Saucony Creek. Today, the Saucony logo represents the endless flow of that waterway, along with its boulder-strewn creek bed, depicted by the three distinct dots within the brand’s “river” mark. Three decades since its first product award, the running industry continues to recognize Saucony Shoe for their innovation, technical leadership and quality product.
In 2007, the Independent Running Retailers Association presented Saucony with both its “Vendor of the Year” and “Product of the Year” awards. |
