New Balance Tropical Cocktail Pack

new-balance-tropical-cocktail-pack

Here comes a preview of New Balance’s new kicks to hit us this 2010. The new collection is called the Tropical Cocktail Pack. I’m sure you already know why it earned its name. Apparently, New Balance decided to take it at another level, their desire to come up with durable and fashionable kicks, that is. The pack includes the brands P600 and C1001 models, classic runner and basketball silhouette designs. The different and contrasting materials were also very interesting, along with the mix of vibrant colors, that makes these kicks even more noticeable.

Personally, I think the designers were drinking cocktails while they were conceptualizing these kicks. I don’t mean that in a negative way because it looks like the cocktails definitely brought out their best, that is if my hunch is true.

New Balance and Overkill introduces the Berlin Wall Pack

The falling of the Berlin Wall in Germany is historical in many ways. A couple of years after the Overkill was established creating a customer-friendly shop for all the footwear lovers. Because the Berlin Wall event will be on its 20th year, Overkill collaborated with New Balance to provide a footwear that would commemorate the collapse.

This is now called as the 577 which will become available in three colors namely blue, red, and black. At first you might think that there is nothing special with the 577. There will also be 577 shoes for each color, which makes it a limited sneaker. Just a simple combination of colors and the image of the Berlin Wall at the shoe’s tongue.

The design was actually incorporated in the soles of the shoe. These designs were actually the images during the Berlin Wall era.

Expect the Berlin Wall pack to hit the shoe shelves by January 9, 2010 and can be availed for $180, more or less.
