After giving you a first full look at the upcoming Sneaker Politics x New Balance 999 collaboration yesterday, we now have a much better look at the sneaker.Said to be inspired by the hit American crime drama series True Detective, this Sneaker Politics x New Balance collaboration utilizes the New Balance 999 as the silhouette of choice. The new balance womens trainers features a navy suede throughout most of the upper with tan leather detailing on the inner liner, ankle, heel and other parts of the shoe. A red and blue paisley tongue and red detailing have also been added to give the shoe a nice pop. All of the colors and prints used on this sneaker are a representation of the uniforms that typically worn by detectives.
Concepts is making its way out west and to celebrate the opening of its new California location, it’s teaming up with new balance 999 womens .Sharing a preview of the collab on Instagram, Concepts posted a photo of the 998’s back heel which shows a rather colorful story as well as a carbon fiber heel cap. The latest collab has been dubbed „Gran Tourer” and is assumed to be a nod to the automobiles known for both their luxury, performance, and ability to drive long distances in comfort. It’s a fitting theme considering Concepts roots are based in Cambridge, Massachusetts with its latest shop opening across the country in Costa Mesa.Having already been crowned Complex’s Best Sneaker Collaboration of 2015 with its new balance 580 „Luxury Goods,” Concepts shows they aren’t resting on their laurels and they aren’t wasting anytime in coming for some of that Christmas money.The shoes officially drop Saturday, December 26, at all three Concepts locations as well as its online shop.
