Thanks to Casablanca, the New Balance XC-72 debuted to a wide array of bright colors. Their latest take on the silhouette, though, was a surprising display of subtlety, lacking the liveliness the pairs before it had in spades. This, however bad it may seem, proves to be a breath of fresh air; and soon, the GR equivalents will be following suit.
Among the first to arrive is the “Moonbeam” pack, a duo of colorways that explores both extremes of the same monochromatic spectrum. Atop one pair in particular, black assumes the helm, dressing up both the lateral and medial sides in blacked out suede, leather, and mesh. But straight down the middle, two different but still related off-white hits dress up every fixture, splitting the upper and tooling down the middle with very little breaks. This holds true with the accompanying pair, its execution similar in all ways save for the inversed arrangement.
Enjoy a close-up, official look at both options here and sit tight as we await their arrival on NewBalance.com and select retailers.
In other news, the Off-White Air Jordan 1 Chicago is landing later this month.
