New Balance has collaborated with Parks Project to launch their latest sneaker, the 'Explore & Connect' Fresh Foam X Hierro v7. The design features a lightweight and breathable upper, paired with hairy suede overlays at the toe and heel, and is inspired by urban green spaces, with a lush green colour palette.
Keith Eshelman, Co-Founder and CEO of Parks Project, spoke about the value of parks in cities, saying "We are thrilled to work with New Balance to celebrate parks, specifically, in this case, the value of parks in cities. Outdoor recreation can be about the epic backcountry trip or simply enjoying nature around you in an urban green space down the street from your home or work. There doesn't need to be a barrier to entry to get out and feel that connection to nature around you, and we know that relationship can bring immense healing and value to our lives."
The sneaker will be available globally on both NewBalance.com and ParksProject.us from March 30, 2023.
