Liverpool Football Club midfield athlete Harvey Elliot works in collaboration with New Balance on a new design that celebrates two important factors in his life. He draws inspiration from Liverpool Football Club and his beloved dog Paisley.
He often spends time with Paisley, who is actually named after Liverpool athlete Bob Paisley, who is also one of the four managers to win the European Cup three times in total. The collaborative design takes the New Balance Tekela v4 as the base silhouette. It is then detailed with a portrait of Paisley the dog on the heel counter. Other details include the transcription that reads "HE19" and is rounded out with the custom N motif at the front filled with the athlete's monogram.
