The original Cruel World was released in December 2013 and benefited “A Place Called Home” that benefits and educated youth in Los Angeles.

The Cruel World 2 released in April 2014 did the same for the American Cancer Society.

The Cruel World 3 will release September 27th and proceeds benefit the Natural Resource Defense Council, a program dedicated to fighting climate change and protecting the earth’s natural resources. Due to the nature of the beneficiary, BAIT has dubbed this color way the “Global Warming”.  Without a cork insole and the new unique tongue, the Global Warming is a strong departure form it’s two predecessors.

You can pick up a pair at limited Saucony retailers on 9/27, or enter a raffle now on BAIT’s website for a chance to secure a pair prior to launch.
