The New Balance 1500 "Iconic Influences" is Available Now

New Balance's Made in UK range has been delivering top-notch craftsmanship for more than 40 years. Silhouettes like the 1500 might no longer be the pinnacle of performance footwear, but they were when they debuted. Today, these designs continue to adhere to quality standards that aren't seen across the industry—at least not for the same or lower price.

Earlier in the year, the brand unveiled its England-manufactured lineup for the Spring/Summer 2025 period. Amongst the dozen-or-so products announced, a New Balance 1500 clad in "Ashley Blue" drew attention from savvy and casual fans alike. Its premium pig suede upper and robust, tried-and-proven ENCAP midsole cushioning reprise their roles, harkening back to previous launches in the process.

Enjoy detailed shots of the "Iconic Influences" NB 1500 ahead. Pairs are expected in limited quantities via NewBalance.com before May ends. The shoe is priced at $240.
