Though New Balance has been building strong momentum on this side of the Atlantic through partnerships with Joe Freshgoods and Saleh Bembury, the Boston-based brand has not forgotten its long-time fans from across the pond. Those in Europe have been treated to several regional-exclusive Made in England releases for its 40th anniversary of off-shore production, including this New Balance 1500 “Fluid Minimalist” release.
Proffering premium pig suede, mesh and leather throughout, the pair looks to staple on-brand shades of grey. Shades of navy flood the vamp mesh and leathers, with complementary shades running through the pair’s branded threadwork. Faint pinks join in at the tongue “New Balance” motifs before familiar colors from the upper fit out the ENCAP cushioned sole unit underfoot.
