Oh, the beautiful New Balances that get released in foreign (read: non-US) lands. There was the Beauty & Youth three-pack, the outrageous SNKRFRKR "Skippys," and now this triple collabo CM1001 with Japan's Oshman's and mita sneakers. What's more is that the CM1001 is itself a New Balance hybrid, utilizing bits of the 576, 990, and 1300. The combination of suede, mesh, and full-grain leather in New Balance's usual palette of neutral tones completes the project. They drop December 12th. In Japan. Sigh. More photos follow.
