Their latest endeavor is a x NEW BALANCE 1500 "GREY HERON" collaboration with Copenhagen-based fashion brand GANNI, highlighted alongside a project that shines a light on emerging designers.
Just to paint some context; GANNI hosted an exhibition called “FUTURE, TALENT, FABRICS” earlier this year. Seven independent designers created bespoke apparel using materials from GANNI’s “Fabrics Of The Future” program in addition to leftover waste, and now in collaboration with New Balance, GANNI’s latest artist project follows the same idea. Copenhagen creatives MASCULINA, Bonnetje, Camilla Skov, and Tecnologias New balance Achiever Mix Media Jacket were all tasked to re-imagine the T500 in their disclaim distinct way, meant to push the limits of artistic expression. The four outcomes look almost like the parent model at hand, and that’s essentially the point. Notably, Bonnetje’s pair is a full-on stiletto heel and Petersen’s features a cotton upper (see the gallery below).
