New Balance made no attempt at commemorating Miguel Cabrera’s unbelievable Triple Crown season (perhaps they’re waiting for the AL MVP vote), but the brand shows it indeed has an eye for historically significance with this new style that shows some deference to their most formidable competition in the running market. The latest Kawhi Leonard × New Balance BB480 LJY ￥14 has an undeniable ‘Infrared’ look about it thanks to the pairing of vivid red and black accents atop a grey suede and mesh base, a style not too terribly different from the Jeff Staple 575s that kicked off his ongoing New Bal partnership. We’re still waiting on Staple’s ‘Black Pigeon’ 577s (though later this month is a much more favorable prospect than death by silence), but this new ML574NRG with a Pigeon lean is yours for the taking at retailers like FinishLine.
