In the 1970s sportswear of all kindsexploded onto the fashion scenewithDiadora being a key player in this who later began to combine leather with new high performance materials toproduce incredible looking trainers. They combinedthe performance materials withdurability, quality and responsiveness to aid in its effectiveness as a sportswear shoe.

It was duringthis period in the 70s that Diadora started its legendary partnership with sporting superstars, with one of those being Bjorn Borg.From thispartnershipthe Diadora Borg Elite was born andseen as the ultimate tennis shoe, the Diadora Borg Elite Gold was the leading, most desired fashion shoe of 1981 andafforded by few but adored by many.

The long term sponsorship deal between Diadora and Bjorn Borg in 1981 was the major catalyst that lead to the launch of the legendary Diadora Borg Elite Gold shoe in Kangaroo leather. It was one of the most expensive shoes of its time costing between 90-100, but with its elitist looks it made Diadora an instant hit with 80s casuals and sportswear fans of the time, withDiadora shoes becoming part of the casual's uniform. The 80s casuals competed against rivals who also had top quality threads. Eventuallydifferent colour variations of the Diadora Borg Elite trainerwere issued around the same time but in lesser materials such aspremium leathers and came in white with navy Diadora logo, white with green and white with silver Diadora logo.

Since the early 80s the Diadora Borg Elite Gold, due to popularity among many,has been relaunched approximately every 5 years.This helps in partto retain its exclusivity as a popular piece, with avid collectors, who in the 80s were young lads who couldn't afford them, now being in their 40s and able to buy multiple pairs.

With alot help from collectors, who have played a key role in getting these re-issued, and films like The Firm and The Businessawareness of this iconic shoe has grown considerably and helped to boost the profile of Diadora on a global scale with more and more interest being taken in Diadora's products.

The last major re-issue of the Diadora Borg Elite Gold was back in late 2009 early 2010 with a price of approximately 105, which in today's money is still a high price but one that we stress is a worthy one to pay for something that meant so much to so many people.
