So having recently become available in the US, after initiating in Japan, the J.Crew x New Balance collaboration 1400 sneakers have two new colourways to make a cute block colour series of eight for the Fall/Winter 2011 Holiday pack. They are now available in mocha and the pictured wine.
I've never been a fan of New Balance, ever, just because I have this connection of lameness tied up with that fat N logo. I still don't really like it, it's not particularly slick, but I do have a weak spot for decent burgundy/maroon colours and this wine red colourway certainly looks appetising. Made of premium American suede, it makes for a good day-to-day piece of footwear. These exclusive kicks are out now for $130.
