The Diadora Ed Moses trainer is now revived thanks to a very special Queen 70 inspired exclusive release with the Diadora Camaro Moses trainer.
Diadora's dominance across various sports during the 1970s and the 1980s was absolutely huge. Just like PUMA & adidas were looking to "one-up" each other across the courts and the tracks so did Diadora. For tennis it was all about the Borg connection for the Italian sportswear brand with a 'Made in Italy' endorsement deal that was probably worth somewhere in its billions in today's currency courtesy of one of the greatest tennis trainers of all time. On the track they had middle distance running icons like Seb Coe that would show the world Diadora was a million miles away from a one trick pony. The legendary Olympic gold hurdler Edwin Moses was also part of "team Diadora" during the golden era of endorsements & one-upmanship of the 1970s & 1980s. Tapping into Diadora's dominance on the Olympic circuit, Moses also had its very own signature runner, the Queen 70. The OG Ed Moses runner is now revived thanks to a very special 80s Casual Classics exclusive release with the Diadora Camaro Moses trainer.

Endorsed by the former America hurdler Edwin Moses, the Queen 70 or Ed Moses trainer as it also known, was worn originally worn by the US champion. Moses famously won gold medals in the 400m hurdles at the Montreal Olympics in 1976 as well as the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984. When speaking about the revival release of the Diadora Queen 70 trainer Diadora chairman & CEO Enrico Moretti Polegato said; "Diadora Queen 70 was born as a running shoe, employed by many champions both in training and performance between the '70s and the '80s. It's also one of the many styles that we have had the honour of retrieving from Diadora's amazing archives, which span more than 60 years of sporting history. It is such an exceptional experience to be able to walk among items that were literally instrumental for so many champions' great victories, and in such a varied array of categories too".
