Recently, I featured the special 2011 APAC project for New Balance collab with Streething and Leftfoot. Today, we focus on the Past. As the PPF (Past, Present, Future) Pack’s goal was to re-imagine and re-work the classic 574 shoe, the “Past” tried to emulate the classic shoe but with a twist. Using some of the [...]

If you run out of the PPF Pack and you want to go rugged and outdoors, you might want to consider this navy and gold number from New Balance. This version of the 574 draws inspiration from the outdoors, using materials that are closely related to outdoor wear. From the gridded nylon, outdoor laces and [...]

It may be a little too late, but it doesn’t matter. What matters is they dropped them here. After last year’s successful APAC (Asia Pacific) Project, the Tri-Color Pack, New Balance works with Streething and Singaporean store Leftfoot for this year’s release. The PPF Pack- Past, Present and Future- focuses on the 574, and how [...]

A few months back, I picked up the HS77, a hybrid sneaker/boot by New Balance. The color blocking on the HS77 is just awesome- from the color accents on the midsole, stitching, laces and the eyelets.

I’ve been meaning to post my latest pick up, the New Balance HS77. If you’ve seen the shoe online, they’ve dubbed this as the Future of the 574. They created a special pack together with Streething and Leftfoot for the Asia Pacific region for the 574. They created a mid-cut vintage version of the 574 [...]

I realized that it’s been a while since I’ve been to Trinoma and was surprised to see the New Balance store open. I thought they were opening this November but apparently they opened their doors sometime mid-October. The new concept store looks great- a good balance of classic lifestyle and performance pairs are on display. [...]
