Matt Varga Among the countless footwear trends we’re constantly juggling, the rise of animal prints has been the hardest to ignore, highlighted with the runaway success of the Cheetah Sambas. Of course, it isn’t just the Three Stripes embracing their wild side, as New Balance displays with an ASOS exclusive leopard print New Balance 9060 — grab yours HERE.
Rather than the all-over layout that many of the shoes we’ve caught in past months have relied on, the British retailer and Boston brand opt for a more reigned-in application. The jungle spots are only applied within the lateral side branding, otherwise utilizing well-established offw-hite toanlity through the rest of the shoe, finishing with a gum sole at the very bottom of the design. Given how inescapable these sort of animal prints have been, the targety demo is clear — someone who’s overall intrigued by the growing aesthetic but has figured other shoes are a bit too off the wall for their tastes.
Though billed as a women’s pair, a full size range of the New Balance 9060 “Leopard” is on offer, spanning from M4 to M13. Retail is set at $150. Again, if you missed the link up top, tap in HERE to pick up your pair.
