Established in 1998, Diadora Heritage is a line that reworks and develops models originating in running, tennis, and basketball from Diadora’s archives, and is also presented on the official page as a separate Heritage line. In contrast to the main line focused on sports competition, it connects historical assets to the lifestyle sphere and represents a distinct offshoot that presents the brand’s past in a contemporary form, unlike occupational lines such as Utility. It is adapted for contemporary use through premium materials and distinctive treatments.
