GANNI works in collaboration with New Balance to present two new iterations of the iconic NB 1960R sneaker model. It is also joined by an additional RC30 sneaker in a single bi-color design language -- all of these are designed with bright yellow accents.
The shoes made their first appearance to the public on August 10th during the Spring/Summer 2024 runway show by GANNI that walked down the runways of Copenhagen Fashion Week. The choice of yellow is to channel a sense of optimism, which is aligned with the brand language of GANNI. The collaborative shoes have a retro tongue and bright attitude as the 1960s have a tonal look made from mesh and plastic overlays. The RC30 is half yellow and half black.
