Editor’s Notes: Described by Packer Shoes founder Mike Packer as his personal "white whale," the Piazza OG was once one of the most esteemed and covetable shoes from the Italian sportswear brand. After teaming up for the release of the original Ellesse Vinitziana in 2017, Packer and Ellesse now dig into the archive to resurrect yet another throwback model.
