Sneaker Freaker will soon be releasing their take on the New Balance 850, which has been christened after one of the most popular Australian kids TV shows, Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. These kicks feature a soft kangaroo leather construction which is usually seen on the more expensive tier of football boots. Also, taking serious consideration from a sneakerhead’s point of view, this version of the 850 has had a type of memory foam injected around the collar as well as a beefed up tongue for added comfort. Check out the amusing promo video and head over to Sneaker Rreaker for an extensive article on the kicks.
The Sneaker Freaker x New Balance 850 ‘Skippy’ will be launched on December 5th at Limited Edt Vault, #03-12, The Heeren, Singapore, T +65 6836 9095; and Sole What?, Lot S-229A The Gardens, Kuala Lumpur, T +603 2287 5811.
