576 Sportie LA

May 01st, 2007 | Author: DJ M | Category: Limited, 576, USA

Complex reports on a 576 collab between New Balance and Sportie LA due this summer. Crazy materials on this one including a striped toebox and tongue, patent leather toe, carbon heel?, scored leather and colored polka dots. Sportie LA will have these exclusively on July 1st with a wider release on September 1st. Price is USD $150.

Thoughts? Without the colored polka dots I would be all over it.

    NB and Alife will be dropping an all 3M in July to go with the Sportie release. It’s a basic grey 3M but it looks hot!

    Mos def not feeling the polka dots. They turned some ‘must cop’ 576’s into something I’d only wear for free - kind of makes me sad.

    I`m a great fan of New Balance sneakers and find, that these shoes are looking great, but the synthetic material of these shoes smells extremly horrible!
