New Balance introduces a new tonal iteration of the 1500 Made in U.K. sneaker model for the season with an all-black colorway palette. The shoes are made with a diverse range of materials and highlight the black textured leather that overlays on top of the upper.
This can be seen along the mudguards, heel counters, and the medial side of the shoe. To add a pop of contrast, the sneakers are marked with silver tones in the form of the 1500 embroidery branding detail. Tweed adds a textural touch to the shoe even more at the toe boxes and Magnet Grey tonal leather is seem along the lining and collars. The N logo marks the side of the shoe to round out the look.
