Here’s one that we didn’t see coming, a very casual looking pair of New Balance 1500’s with design duties by Junya Watanabe as part of the eYe Junya Watanabe Comme des Garcons Man collection. In a somewhat similar fashion to the vintage Nike runners he worked on a few years back, these joints take things back by employing subtle details such as vintage tongue tags and a retro font on the heels. Apart from an extra set of insoles and special shoe bag, these Japan exclusives also come with a premium price tag of JPY31,000. Check your usual Japanese online spots for availability.
