Before we get into that rather striking turquoise colourway lets talk a bit about the inspiration. Utilising the Magic Basket Low silhouette which is a classic court shoe from the 1980s, the exclusive release draws inspiration from the golden era of Borg and the iconic Borg Elite trainer. The Magic Basket trainer is an OG court trainer from the mid 1980s that was recently reived from the Diadora archives. Putting an added retro spin on the classic court style, we've put a classic Borg Elite spin on the Magic Basket merging together the two 80s court icons.

Drawing inspiration from the legendary Borg Elite trainer from 1981 the ground breaking tennis silhouette was famously endorsed by the Swedish tennis legend, Bjorn Borg. Featuring state of the art trainer tech from the early 1980s, the Made in Italy court trainer was one of the most expensive trainers available on the trainer market at the time. It's expensive price tag & premium materials would create one of the most sought after trainers of the era with many OG Casuals still citing the trainer as one of the all time greats.
