Behind New Balance 365

Behind New Balance 365

There is a certain symmetry to the Stockholm studio in which a motley collection of set designers, prop builders and actors have gathered - wall-to-wall grey interior balanced with the grey exterior of the Swedish winter sky. Inside, a team assembled by New Balance and Mother, including film director Jesper Koothoofd are occupied with what will eventually become a rather unique alarm clock. An alarm clock might well be helpful here, as daylight is in short supply (literally) while the days are long for a crew tasked with completing eighty-eight short films, each exploring the idea of balance in support of a different New Balance silhouette to be introduced as part of the Spring 2010 Collection.

Love is on the ground.

It’s not a kick in the heart, it’s kicks from the heart. Click for a little ambiance and read on. The New Balance Valentine’s Day Sneaker–a white 460 with red accents–has a heart on the tongue and a translucent rubber outsole over a heart pattern. Available now, but, only for the ladies, (read with a Barry White-like bass). Sorry fellas. At least you know what to get your sneaker loving love interest.

Laissez les bon temps rouler

The ‘Aints put the “S” back in their name when they beat Indy. New Balance made Mardi Gras shoes. It’s a big year for New Orleans. But even if you’re not headed down for the big party, celebrate in style with the Mardi Gras edition 525 for men and 460 for women. Design elements include a fleur de lis on the tongue and heel, beaded laces, gender-specific mask on the insert and green, purple and gold accents. The comfort and the lightweight design of both models lets you stroll, amble or wobble comfortably to the early morning hours without ever tiring out your feet. King’s models available at Finish Line, Shoe Carnival and Shoe Show. See the queen’s model in white here and in black here.
