The vintage vibes keep rolling in 2019 with Diadora launching the Gold Indoor trainer, sending out mass appeal to those who like a bit of throwback in their style. Drawing huge influence from Diadora boots of the 90s, the Gold Indoor trainers are available in either black with a white logo or total white, both riding on a gum rubber outsole.
Let’s have a quick check here: over-sized leather tongue? Check. Silhouette that borrows the iconic and recognisable upper of 90’s Diadora football boots? Check. Full-grain leather and suede upper that features intricate details synonymous with Diadora? Check. Yep, the Gold Indoor has got all the makings of yet another classic sneaker that's as comfortable on the court as it is kicking it on the curb.
As with the Golden Boy trainers that were released at the end of 2018, the Gold Indoor trainers draw from legacy of Diadora's Balon d’Or winning boots, tweaking it for the indoor game. If you can really bring yourself to boot a ball in these beauties, that is. Nah, for us they're a solid fixture in the streetwear department.
Diadora continue to exist in that niche little zone, dominating the retro football footwear scene. Brands that enjoyed success in the 90s tend to have either moved with the times, changing over the years to meet the demand of the modern game, or they’ve simply faded into obscurity. Not Diadora though. So successful both on and off pitch in the 90s, they remain, frozen in time but still retaining all the appeal that took them to the top of the game all those years ago. Only now, fresh from celebrating their 70th anniversary, there’s that added nostalgia appeal to them too. Retro rides, Italian style.
