Winter has blown nothing but wind, rain and misery into our lives. Now, its spring and things are looking a little brighter, so we’re getting ready for some more vibrant colourways for our spring/summer footwear rotation.
American footwear producer New Balance are warming up for summer with their brand new “Sundown” pack; a dark based look with ‘Sex on the Beach’ toned orange-red shades for their OMN1S, 997 Sport and 850 silos.
Sunsets are best witnessed in the summer. Hopefully on a beach with a drink in hand. To celebrate that feel of winding down a perfect day watching the sun eclipse the horizon, New Balance have worked on a new orange to yellow colour gradient with a clean black look to recreate that perfect sunset vibe.
OMN1S
The high topped Kawhi Leonard x New Balance OMN1S combines basketball and hiking boot smoothly with a sleek aesthetic. The orange-yellow upper, interspersed with black features is wrapped in an all-black lacing system that includes an ankle strap and a black soleplate. The New Balance ‘N’ branding is given a yellow and white finish to make a real statement.
997 Sport
For a more everyday look, the 997 Sport running trainer also throws in some splashes of white for a multi coloured look that catches the eye. Predominantly black, including soleplate, toe, mid layer and heel tab, the sunset gradient sits underneath to create a darker colourway for those who prefer the traditional black aesthetic.
850
The 850 has the chunkier dad trainer aesthetic to it. Mostly black, the sundown colour scheme is there in panels throughout the upper and a more vibrant yellow is used on the toebox and NB branding on the heel.
The pack released on March 5th and is available now at select online trainer’s retailers.
