New Balance unveils its new Lunar New Year collection that celebrates the upcoming festive time. The capsule is made up of the 550 sneaker model and it is made from a blend of leather and suede materials throughout the upper.
There are two 550s -- both of which are made in a neutral tone starting with a nude palette and another is an off-white with red accents. Following this are three versions of the 2002$ sneakers, which have casual tones starting with a grey and followed by a chocolate brown. The third deconstructed look is similar to that of its Protection Pack in a purple look before the collection is rounded out by a nude and red 574 shoe and a grey 9060 sneaker.
