Haven x New Balance, again. This time clad in chic gray.

The Canadian brand "HAVEN" and "New Balance
(Balance) will launch its second collaboration.

Released for Fall/Winter 19first shotThe 990v5 is based on the popular 990 model, as in the previous model. This time, the iconic gray color of the "New Balance" has been adopted.

The toe and side panels are made of pig suede, the heel panel is made of supple leather from the Horween Leather Company, and the mesh portion is made of durable CODURA®. The shoe is constructed with premium materials.

The frame of the upper, which symbolizes the 990, is stored inside the mesh. It is usually hidden, but when exposed to light such as flash, the design is revealed.

The laces, logo, and heel panel also incorporate the same reflector material. Although the look is simple, the design is completed when worn on the street, and I think such conceptual aspects are the appeal of these shoes.

Domestic sales will be available at "New Balance Roppongi 19:06", "Dover Street Market Ginza", and "BEAMS Harajuku".

In addition to the highly finished design, this one will probably be a battleground, as the previous one was only available online.
