Hi all


Been doing a lot of search but can't seem to find the answer. Can somebody tell me difference between the main differences between the Era and the Era 59? I do know that the Era is a kind of a new take of the Authentics, but what about the Era 59? A simple evolution of the Era?
Thanks.

The number means the heel portion of the shoe is made up in a different material. A lot of the time, it also means the tongue is the same material. Lately there have been a lot of Canvas/Leather combo's.

That was news to me as well! So all the Era 59's would have a different material than the rest of the upper?

I always thought it was the "heel mustache" rather than the heel cap that made them the era 59? Although a lot of them do seem to have a matching tongue material to the heel mustache… Interesting insight there!
