Parisian mainstay colette is hopping off the New Balance train for a minute, prepping a special pair of sneakers with classic American footwear brand Converse. Pictured here is the pair in question, one whose white canvas is don up with the cartoony art of Kevin Lyons, and all in a blue that seems to aim at the shop’s sensibilities. Stay with us after the jump for the full look at the Kevin Lyons x Converse Chuck Taylor All Star for colette which will only be available at their spot in Paris and let us know where you rank these in terms of collabo Chucks,

Fortunately enough it appears like this four way footwear team up will indeed be making its way to American shores, with the images we’ve seen to date only promising that European spots would have them in stock. The New Balance MT580 and 1500 included further diversify the lineup of NB silos that have been touched up with the collabo process this year, allowing for a pretty good range of models that has included the likes of the 998, 999, and 1300. Stay tuned with us after the jump to check out the latest photo set of the UNDFTD x colette x La MJC x New Balance and keep in mind that CNCPTS will be dropping their pairs on October 13th. And while they’re the only confirmed US retailer at the moment, expect other premium doors to have them on the same date as well.

You’ve got a lot of New Balance heat to keep up on at the moment. What’s more it’s a particularly international group, with partners from various spots around the globe grabbing at some classics NB runners and touching them up. West NYC is holding things down for the US, the Aussies at Sneaker Freaker are doing their thing, and now France joins in on the fun with the upcoming New Balance 580 and New Balance 1500 shown (although do keep in mind that colette and La MJC have some American help in the form of Undefeated). Stay with us after the jump for full shots of the UNDFTD x colette x La MJC x New Balance collection and keep in mind that these will be hitting European accounts on October 13th (along with the aforementioned West and Sneaker Freaker pairs as well).

When the more UNDFTD influenced half of this pack arrived its inspiration was fairly easy to spot, the ULCA Bruins colors being particularly relevant what with the NCAA football season just getting started. And while we originally had the more Parisian pair pegged as a general homage to La MJC and colette’s home country of France it turns out the aim is a bit more specific, the stripes in particular pointing to a football team of an entirely different nature: soccer club Paris St Germain. Click through with us for the latest look at this New Balance MT580 that has had quite a few hands in its design and stay tuned for word on their release as soon as it pops up.

While UNDFTD had their fun on the New Balance 1500 in this big name collabo pack painting it with some local colors, the New Balance MT580 from the set is held down by the French folks involved. The sneaker dons a deep red and blue treatment for the mostly suede upper, along white some white scattered around the edges to run the gamut of France’s flag. Click through with us to check out the detailed photos we’ve got lined up and stick with Sneaker News to figure out when both of the styles from the UNDFTD x LaMJC x colette x New Balance collection will make their way to shelves.

While the first sneaker we caught wind of from the upcoming La MJC x UNDFTD x colette pack was a little bit more French leaning in terms of the colors used, the New Balance 1500 from the project gets a much more stateside look, painted with the familiar combo of the UCLA Bruins. That’s not to say that the French partners involved don’t have their influence on the model, La MJC’s work can be seen on the insole and the sky blue suede on the upper is rather similar to the tone most frequently associated with Parisian powerhouse colette. Click through with us to check out the latest shots from this massive team up and let us know which of the La MJC x UNDFTD x colette x New Balance ‘UCLA’ pack you’re feeling more.

Bringing together Los Angelian and Parisian tastes to the New Balance is this amazing four-way collaboration among LA-born UNDFTD, Paris-based colette and La MJC, and New Balance. Dubbed the ‘UCLA’ Pack, this capsule features two of New Balance’s most popular current models in the trail-specific MT580 and the small-N 1500 model; both colorways are inspired by the two cities – the Blue/Yellow being a clear nod to UCLA while the Navy/Red/White being of French descent. The UCLA Pack is set to be a limited release in the near fture, so peep the details below and we’ll keep you updated regarding release information!

Each of the three partners reigned in for this upcoming New Balance project have proven up to this point that they can play well with others when it comes to NB models, with staples of French cool LaMJC and colette having meshed on this New Balance 1500 creation and Undefeated having linked up with Stussy and HECTIC on their very own 996. This time around the three of them get together on the New Balance MT580, cranking out the inevitable red, white, and blue sneaker that we’d bet is more Tricolour than Old Glory in its intention. Beyond that you can see the UNDFTD influence in the details, with the chenille N hit on the side very much in tune with their classic sporting imagery. Click through for more shots and stay with Sneaker News for release info on the LaMJC x UNDFTD x colette x New Balance MT580 which should hit this October. Photos: HS
