One Block Down Reflects Italy’s Impact On New Balance Sub-culture With The 991 And 1500 In “Marble Grey”

One Block Down Reflects Italy’s Impact On New Balance Sub-culture With The 991 And 1500 In “Marble Grey”

The New Balance sub-culture may have notable epicenters in the US, UK, and Japan for their regional manufacturing methods, but the truth is the NB label has hotspots all around the globe. Italy, a country marked for its hyper-focused craftsmanship in its own right, is certainly among the more fervent supporters of the brand, but their role in the in securing the continent-wide support of the label is often overlooked.

For this newly launched collaboration, New Balance has teamed up with renowned retailer One Block Down to reflect their home country’s impact on the New Balance sub-culture with a capsule featuring the New Balance 991 and New Balance 1500. There’s no more fitting an interpretation than the utilization of Marble Grey, a shade that fits effortlessly on any NB model and also touches on the country’s storied history of chiseling breathtaking monuments and structures out of the stone.

The Italian retailer just dropped their entire capsule online here, so grab either the 991 or 1500 (while supplies last) here before they’re gone.
