Basketcase Brings Pony Hair to the New Balance 204L
Name:Basketcase x New Balance 204LColorway:GrayRelease Date:Friends and Family only
The third time is the charm for Basketcase andNew Balance. After first teaming up on the New Balance 1906AD last June and then once again back in November on the Minimus MT20, the Southern Californian streetwear label has once again connected with the footwear imprint for a new collaborative footwear release: the Basketcase x New Balance 204L.
Arriving as a Friends & Family release, the new Basketcase x New Balance offering maintains the duo's monochromatic, minimalistic approach, though taking it up a notch.
Engulfed in different shades of gray, the collaborative take on the new NB silhouette comes elevated with textured pony hair underlays. The pony hair is partially hidden beneath premium nubuck overlays, dipped in a slightly different gray hue. Leather linings, contrasting EVA foam midsoles and outsoles, round out the low-profile stepper.
The sneaker is currently stationed in Paris' Le Marais district, on display as the focal point of Basketcase's showroom. While this specific colorway is confirmed not to get a wholesale release, a press release states that it does in fact precede 'an additional colorway [of the collaborative sneaker] launching globally later this year.'
Take a closer look at the Basketcase x New Balance 204L in the gallery above and stay tuned for more information for release details of the yet-to-be-revealed collaborative colorway.
