Inspired by the sport of squash, which lines up well with Gola's British roots, Daiki Suzuki has chosen a classic archive style from 1977 to update with a unique Engineered Garments design – the Match trainer.
Traditional laces have been replaced with an elastic panel, which defines the look of the shoe and makes it easy to slip on and off. Suede and cotton twill are used in the upper, with an overlaid toe panel and tonal mesh lining calling back to 70s designs. Subtle co-branding is used on the cushioned in-sock and on the tongue, paired with Gola's signature wingflash on the side.
The Match will be available in black and white colourways at Nepenthes London from Friday, 5th September 2025.
