Basketcase Previews New Balance 204L Collab ahead of Paris Fashion Week

Zach Kinninger and his Basketcase Gallery are the next lucky collaborators to rework the New Balance 204L.

Reminiscent of the miu miu-approved NB 530L, the silhouette promises a more accessible range of offerings without sacrificing its low-profile, elevated aesthetic. Already linked to Ronnie Fieg's Kith, the NB 204L has gotten the Basketcase Gallery treatment ahead of Paris Fashion Week.

While understated in color scheme, the project features a faux hair makeover across the upper. New Balance's signature grey tone appears from toe to hind-foot, with white contrast appearing throughout the profiles and tongue. Underfoot, the sole unit keeps things simple, abandoning the bright red seen on other work by Kinninger. A set of pink laces arrives in the grey plaid-adorned shoe box that packages the limited edition collaboration.

Enjoy detailed shots of the 204L by Basketcase ahead. Specific release details haven't been disclosed yet, but a special release is likely to take place in Paris between Tuesday, June 24, and Sunday, June 29. A global NewBalance.com launch could follow.
