Jaden Smith New Balance 574 “Surplus” is Sourced from Scrap Materials
Long before Jaden Smith aligned himself with New Balance, the 23-year-old performer has been immersing himself in purposeful projects. So when it came to a footwear partnership, sustainability and environmental impact were of top priority. With his signature silhouette delivering on these potteries, we were wondering when Jaden would take to one of New Balance’s classics. Alas, it’s finally here, the Jaden Smith x New Balance 574, and it arrives in one-of-a-kind style.
Not only does the design mimic Jaden’s colorful flair, but it’s also special in the fact that — like his Vision Racer of the same name — each pair offers its own unique materials and colors. This is again due to the use of factory cut-offs in which the upper is comprised of 73% surplus materials, 18% virgin materials, and 9% recycled matter. This results in a sneaker that’s 100% focused on its environmental impact and makes it all the more exciting when you finally unbox your pair to see what your special sneakers look like.
Take a look at a handful of options here below, and look for the Jaden Smith x New Balance 574 “Surplus” to land on NewBalance.com on September 17th for $120.
