The latest triple-tag-team effort between New Balance and Japanese sneaker specialists atmos is this design courtesy of the Secret Base toy shop. For their New Balance 996 runner, Secret Base used a tiger drawn by Texas-based tattoo artist Christ Trevino as the inspiration. As is the case with several NB collabs of late, the tiger in full makes the insoles perhaps the most impressive part of the design, leaving the upper to more subtly incorporate this theme with the use of tonal black stripes on the toebox and heel counter. Select gold accents finish these off nicely, so check out more shots after the jump and get to work on your overseas connects cos these are a Japan-exclusive. via Shoes-Up
