In 1996, New Balance introduced its 580 to the world. 20 years later, the shoe has become one of the brand's most popular silhouettes and a popular canvas for collaborations. To celebrate the occassion, NB has enlisted the help of New Era for its own special collaborative package. The shoe carries an official model name of MRT580NE and is highlighted by an all-black nubuck upper highlighted by reflective accents on the back heel as well as a glow-in-the-dark outsole. In addition, the package also comes with a New Era strapback that features similar details and ties directly back to shoe.
Each item comes housed in a special drawer style, dual-branded black box. As far as release details, expect these to hit select boutiques beginning Saturday, January 8.
