574 White/Rasta and Wheat
Wednesday, February 14th, 2007480 Comic
Tuesday, February 13th, 2007One for the comic nerds!
“New Balance will soon release this limited edition 480 Comic sneaker. The design of the shoe is inspired by the current revival of comic book super heroes in movies and in newer comics series. Other than the design, this new NB Comic 480 also contains Tyvek materials which feels like paper to enhance that comic book feel of the shoe. These sneakers will only be available through Foot Locker and Foot action and will launch this February 15 in Las Vegas as a limited release. It will then see a Select US and International release on March 23.”
Interesting. Tyvek is the stuff Priority Mail flate-rate envelopes are made out of. The “KA-BOOM” and the barcode are bad! Overall this looks like a great shoe. Too bad the string of comic book movies that inspired it have largely sucked except X-Men 1 and 2 and the two Spidermans…. IMO.
New Balance website facelift
Tuesday, February 13th, 2007The official NB site has had a facelift. Looking sharp! Check their Classics section:
NB x Mita – 576 Yamato and Amazon
Monday, February 12th, 2007Not sure about the deets on this one, but while browsing Mita I noticed they have a pair of new Limited 576 collabs with NB, the CM576 YAMATO and AMAZON. They share a shock-red sole but are very different shoes with unique details such as the flower etching on the Yamato and camo insole on the Amazon.

Trail Buster reissue
Monday, February 12th, 2007New Balance is reissuing the 90s Trail Buster model on which the MT580 was based. These urban hiking concept shoes in snazzy bright colors are part of the Spring/Summer 2007 collection and are available now at Mita in Japan. If you need a rugged sole to run through your neighbors yards or stomp the neighborhood bully for mocking your pink shoes, look no further!
