New Balance MT580 Beads

by Brendan Dunne

Remember those custom New Balances by artist Ricardo Seco that put beads on the runners as a nod to Mexico's Huichol people?

It appears that New Balance is taking some cues from Seco on this new pair of New Balance MT580s. The sneaker isn't as dedicated to the beaded look, wearing mostly black and white across its upper, but it has its fair share of colorful sections on the toebox, collar, and tongue.

This New Balance WRT580, a women's Elite Edition release, is available now at European retailers like Titolo.
