Available Now // New Balance 1500 CNY “Year of the Rat”
The New Balance 1500 is coming off a stellar 30th-anniversary year that was chock-full of bangers. And while the calendar year may have ticked over, it’s business as usual for the famed silhouette, with the 1500 kicking-off 2020 with an absolute gem that honors the upcoming Lunar New Year. Unlike the majority of this year’s Chinese New Year drops, the New Balance 1500 “Year of the Rat” embraces the loathed rodent theme by utilizing suede and pigskin in black, brown, and tan — colors oft found on the long-toothed, long-tailed creatures. Of course, it wouldn’t be Chinese New Year without a hint of metallic gold, found here on both the tongue’s “Made in England” and lateral’s “1500” embroidery. Capping off the design is a sail midsole and black rubber outsole.
