References: launches.endclothing & highsnobiety
Retailer END. worked in collaboration with New Balance on a small joint sneaker range comprised of the X-90 footwear silhouette. Entitled the 'Dusk,' the pack draws a strong inspiration from the darkest time of twilight, from the perspective of looking onto the skyline. The new Dusk pack boasts a construction of mesh through its uppers, with textile lining and synthetic overlays. It all rests on top of a REClite midsole and is rounded out with a rubber outsole.
The leading version is the white colorway, which is designed to celebrate memorable sunsets across the horizon -- it has white mesh to recall clouds scattering before it transforms into a captivating blue and purple afterglow. The new END. x New Balance Dusk pack will be dropping on September 1st.
