New Balance 420 Black / Lime

new-balance-420-black-lime

Almost 30 years after its initial release the New Balance 420 still remains to be a classic in the NB lineup. The 420 has a classic low-profile shape, a three-layer outsole and a ground-breaking shock-absorption system which many NB fans have praised. No matter if your a walker, runner or somebody just tryin to look fresh the NB 420 should defiantly be on your list of sneakers to have. The colorway shown here is definitely inspired by the 1980s roots of the 420 and uses a black and lime color scheme consisting of a mesh and suede upper. The minimal use of lime on the New Balance logo and on the heel tab seem to be just enough to make these sneakers pop.

Watch for the New Balance 420 in this black/lime colorway and others to release next month in July. Pre-Order a pair now if your interested at End.

UNDFTD x New Balance MT580 Preview

undefeated-new-balance-mt580-preview

Eddie Cruz from UNDFTD has just posted a preview shot on his Twitter account of an upcoming collaboration between Undefeated and New Balance. The model of choice is the New Balance MT580 which we can see consists of a black nubuck upper with a white midsole and a gum outsole. Seen on the inner lining of the sneakers is some sort of purple design. Since only the back half of the shoes are shown it leads us to believe that quite possibly theres a little bit more going on with the front half  then the back half which just uses black nubuck. Dont quote us on that just yet though.

As more info is released we will be sure to keep you updated.
