Joe Freshgoods has launched a new footwear offering with New Balance dubbed ‘Conversations Amongst Us’ after the successful launches of the ‘2002R,’ ‘550,’ and ‘KAWHII II’ silhouettes. The upcoming release spotlights the New Balance ‘574’ silhouette, wrapping its uppers in a white leather and mesh combination. New Balance’s ‘N’ emblem can be spotted on the laterals, while text that reads "Conversations" and "Amongst Us" rests on the heel tabs of the shoe.
The sneaker also boasts New Balance tongue tags, unique graphics, and a stacked ENCAP midsole on top of a black rubber outsole. The ‘Conversations Amongst Us’ sneakers are perfect for consumers who don’t mind getting their sneakers slightly dirty, as the minimalist design looks better with wear.
